When the world is asleep my imagination comes to life. The words I write. The pictures I draw comes to life. The world of Tomorrowland comes to life. The doorway to Tomorrowland opens and I go through. Late at night I write about a magical world filled with flying cars. A train that floats in the air. An elevator that reaches all the wall to space and so much more. A city that is the city of tomorrow. The sky is full of mystery filled with the wonders of the universe. The doorway to Tomorrowland opens tonight. A door of mystery is what I cal...

Running through the forest. Howling at the moon. Sleeping on the ground. Eating other animals is what I known my whole life. Raised in the forest by wolves is all know. I am a human girl unable to talk, unable to form any words. I only know the call of the wild. My mother is the Luna of the pack. My father is the Alpha of the pack. They protected me since the day they found me. I only know what they taught me. To hunt. To prey on others. To fight other packs. To protect my own pack. I have no name. Sometimes I call myself flower because I l...

I love mythology, learning about ancient cultures and the Gods is amazing. Norse mythology is my absolute favorite. I love learning about the ancient female warriors who guide the souls of the dead to Valhalla. There is so much to the Valkyrie. They can be heroes. They can be against you. They can be beautiful or menacing. There is so many layers to the Valkyrie I love to uncover. I have so many books I'm reading about Norse mythology. Some books I read twice. Most of them about the Valkyries. I love the idea of strong beautiful woman. Today...

The love of money is the root of all evil. For me money is love and power. My obsession is magnify times ten. Money gives me everything I deserve. No one can stop me. The power money gives me spills the blood of those who don't give me what I want. I spilled the blood of countless of men who refuse to give me what I want. I want more. What I have is not enough. I need more. I have to have more. Greed empowers me. "Isn't that right little rabbit?" "Oh no don't cry little rabbit. Give me what I want." I love seeing the fear on my little rabbit...

Love doesn't exist. Love is tainted. Love will get you killed. Love has no meaning in a world where hate, where distrust, where dishonesty, where control exist. In this world. My world love has no room for any of us. Hope is forbidden. Intimacy is forbidden. Caring and compassion is forbidden. Anything that has to do with love is forbidden. I walk around in a world that is devoid of human emotions. The only emotions I see and feel is fear and sadness. I feel fear every day I walk down the street. I fear for myself. My friends and family. I ...

Come on legs work for me. I get up again. This time I make it to my room. This feels good. My bed is extra comfy. I quickly fall asleep. Sweet dreams world. Oh God! what i...
