Chocolate Coating

you sat there
in a chocolate coated smile
stared at me, eyes smiling
I wasn't expecting you
I wasn't expecting anything

you shattered my walled existence

you'll probably sneer at this
stare ahead and say,
"don't give me this shit,
just love me and let's take it from there."

my heart burned
strange
it has always been cold

I let go of your chocolate coated smile

my heart burned
you thawed what was cold
but not by much

I was never a fan of chocolate coated smiles

How to Become A Thiller Writer

source: FidlerJan at Morguefile.com Alright, not exactly a how to but at least some points to remember that might be helpful to those who are trying to make it through to the world of published authors. This is something that I just stumbled upon a few hours ago and decided might be worth writing a recap here in case I finally do get the nerve and the motivation to write something.    This is probably something that all aspiring fiction writers can take note of, not just thriller writers but writers of all genre. Some might be applicable, some may not.    According to Janet Reid , or at least according to the notes she took from a thriller seminar she attended, the following are the characteristics that usually make a good thriller book. It's either a book focused on one of the listed characteristics or all of them. CONCEPT: The speaker cited Jurassic Park as a good example for this. How many other books have we read which took us in right from the start because of some exc

Why I Ditched My Purchased Domain Name and Returned to Free Blogger

source: canva.com   It's been a while since I've let out my inner voice.  To just write.  Write.  Irregardless of readership, of SEO.  What do I need SEO for, anyway? I am not a business.  I started this blog, never as a business. I started it to write. To have a plot  of virtual real estate for my poems, stories and essays that I'm too proud to share with the people closest to me. Because somehow, it is harder for me to show the entirety of who I am to the most important people in my life.  As to the why, I have no answer. Perhaps it's self-preservation. Perhaps it's to protect them. There can be a lot of dark corners in my mind. Questions that might not sit well with the common beliefs each one of them clings to.  Reality is not the same for everyone.  Think of a child born in the comforts of a western home, and then think about a child born to the deafening noise of war somewhere in the middle east. Think of a child born in the tropics, where flooding is a yearly

A cheesy love poem

I have promised you some verses, which up until now I haven't done. It's not because you don't inspire me, it's more because I only write poetry when there are things I cannot say, and with you I can say and share everything. You have my heart and with it is my poetry.  ↞⇼↠ Te Quiero, Carino I don't know if you'll ever find this page Perhaps not. I'd prefer that. Because these verses They don't come near to expressing The depth of what I feel for you. It's so cliché. It's hard to find words unique Which will only mean you. I promise to write another one Something that could rival the beauty of the sunset But perhaps If I try that It will take a lifetime. Then I'll just read it to you When we're both 90 and weak in the knees Although being weak in the knees That doesn't have anything to do With being 90, it's when you're around. Perhaps we'll get our grandson to read it Because by then we'll be wea
