Vintage Buckle Lock

“True but, everyone knows this is the best way to spend a chilly evening. Plus, I already have everything set up, so just try not to think about it so much. I'm sure Rhett is just feeling anxious about his performance on Saturday. Who knows he might even come clean about his true feelings for you tonight at dinner. Have fun, love you, bye.”  Well, I wasn’t wrong about this being the perfect way to spend my evening. I mean I have warm fresh baked cinnamon sugar cookies resting on the baking sheet in the oven. A delicious strawberry salad...

Happy Training

Submitted to Contest #198

"Okay class, Pop Quiz" We heard from the unexpectedly cheerful female voice.. A hidden male figure In all black removed the cloth cover over our heads revealing a confused bunch of us. All different and varying in ages, shapes, colors and languages. The now intensely bright lit room did not resemble a classroom but an obstacle course that was viewed to be the size of at least 3 indoor football fields. With confusing faces and after a long pause of observational awareness of our new surroundings, all of our attention was on her. Noticing o...

Just climb the tree

Submitted to Contest #190

"Speak now." The command echoes in the spaces between my thoughts. Blinking, trying to wet my eyes and refocus on the figure in front of me. "Do you... do you think that the fish knows that the bears the enemy?" "Christ! We're not doing this again. Always these dumb questions and hypotheticals. Did you even hear a single thing I said?" "Right, because you're so considerate and comprehensible while you're yelling at me." I did hear him. I always hear him. I always strive to do exactly what he says but for some reason I always fall short. If...

Gate 12

Submitted to Contest #168

I love when it rains. As egotistical as it may sound I feel like the rain comes in acknowledgement of me and my feelings. The smell alone relaxes my nerves and release a feeling of peace that allows me to believe that it's okay to just let go. Although, what gets me the most about the rain is the color of the sky. The darkness. Usually it comes through constant waves of darkening gray that slowly swallows any color in the sky that dares to defy its arrival. As the sea reflects only what is above, the ocean begins to turn black. The absence o...

Electrical Circuits

Submitted to Contest #121

I struggle with words. Sometimes I can not speak at all for I've undergone selective mutism. It's a part of my illness. I am ashamed but I know if people knew that the electrical circuit in between my neurons had a short they may be more understanding of my awkwardness. I have learned to enjoy my time alone. Since words always deem to fail my expression for life and others I've begun to notice the small things around me. When walking down the cracked weeded sidewalk I notice the well planted flowers surrounded by gigantic hungry bees. I watc...

Grandparents

Submitted to Contest #120

"Awww oh my gosh your baby is so cute" Dressed in a white buttoned down colorful polka dot shirt paired with bright yellow drawstring pants. He was no more than two years old and I could practically hear the wonder in his eyes. So young, new, innocent. His grandparents were beyond proud to stroll through Landblurberry Park showing off the beauty of their newest DNA strand. Later that day they window shopped through 10 stores holding up Outfits and commenting on the beauty of their little one. They put him in tiny tuxedos, duck Outfits, a sai...

It's just a crush

He stood there. He was muscular and slim. The way his legs held up his body ignited the air of grace, strength, and boldness. He begins to walk and I swear every footstep leaves the ground blooming in happiness for being blessed by his presence.  He doesn't seem to notice me staring but, oh no, he looked and gosh I should've looked away. But his eyes, those gorgeous circles of fiery gold have become my new favorite color. I feel myself melting in his gaze.  He starts venturing towards me as if my desperate need for him is written o...

Neighborhood Vacuuming

Submitted to Contest #90

At first the dirty looks bothered her but she’s way more experienced at it now. She begins to slowly bend over and pick up a broken piece of plastic. Sometimes it’s better to have a system but other times she cleans as she pleases. Whenever she feels an excess of energy and her regular pastimes dont interest her, she bundles up, puts on two pairs of gloves and with a couple of trash bags she walks to the end of her neighborhood. Crosses the street and begins cleaning up the parallel neighborhood. We call them Grounders. They built this civi...

Untamed

Submitted to Contest #86

Her gamertag was UntamedDaisy but everyone called her Untamed. She wore a Daisy pendant necklace because she believed its qualities,innocence, purity and newness, fit her perfectly. She wasn’t the best video gamer but she was one of a kind. “Asturd”, “ThatGuy3”, “ChocolateAsh”, and “PoppinCherreees”, were all her best friends, and yes she knew their real names but she rarely used them. Gamertags had their own type of anonymity and class. Her love seat was a dark navy blue seated directly in between a roundtable, stacked high with pizza boxes...

The Artistic City

Submitted to Contest #85

That's the thing about this city, the community has changed so dramatically that I worry if I’m not trendy with new art, I will no longer be accepted as an original “Austinite”. The art that you immerse yourself in while in Austin is seen, heard and felt through; music, handmade artworks, and the strategic placing of items all around the city. When walking down congress the first thought in your mind will be, “wait is that a coldplay song''. The music from the open windowed bars, excitedly drifts into the street drawing in people of all ages...

Rosebud Vault

Submitted to Contest #84

The door begins to unlock and, even though my heart is breaking, I'm filled with excitement. All I can hear are the muffled sobs of my little brother and my dad's worried, shaky voice as he attempts to console him. The sunlight begins to slowly drift onto the uneven asphalt walkway, parted only by unusable train tracks. The door opens up completely and as the sunlight blinds me, my enthusiasm and taste for adventure silences every sound. I run as fast as I can into the unknown.  This had always been my plan and my father hated me for i...

In The Darkness

Submitted to Contest #81

We bantered and flirted, my eyes bouncing towards him and the timer making sure not to burn the cherry filled chocolate lava cake I've been perfecting for weeks. His words 'You're Gorgeous' warming my blood while he teases me about kissing my lips and then he waited until I called his bluff. Once he took two steps towards me the space between us felt heavy. He held my face so firmly in his grip That when our lips met he became my anchor The only thing keeping me from floating away. The world disappeared but I tasted the bliss of heaven. The ...
