Look into the darkness
Where the perfect people shed their masks and the optimists are really pessimists
Where the person who's always happy, drowns their sorrows in alcohol
Where the person who never cries, can't stop
Where the all together people, completely fall apart
And the well-mannered, act insane
Where the quiet ones, scream their thoughts
Where the innocent virgins, are sleeping around
And the so called sluts, lost their virginity to a rapist
Where the woman who wears too much make up, wipes it off to reveal the bruises
Where the even tempered, punch holes in the wall
Where the criminals are truly the victims
Where everything you thought was the truth, is a lie
And all the so called lies are the truth.

BARE HUNTER
CHAPTER 15 I pulled up in front of Sandy’s a little early, so I texted Becca again and left a message for Sharon, hoping she had a good day and I’d see her tomorrow. Two cars pulled into Sandy’s driveway. I don’t know why I was surprised to see another man with her. We’d been apart for two years and I certainly didn’t waste any time getting back on the horse.

The Business of Nature
Dew drops reflected the light of the sun. The inhabitants of Whispering Woods woke up to the golden droplets of water on the leaves of the flora. The oaks particularly enjoyed the light and the maples did, too. Happiness enveloped all who lived there, even the rocks that cried out in the night delighted in the morning.
