What can I say? I like to write. I hope you enjoy my perceptions on life. Our opinions are the bullets in our objective guns. Firing round after round with our deafening puns.

What If? What if I told you, that #life was a dream? Would you dance in the magic, or just want to scream? What if I told you, how tomorrow would end? Would you sit home in silence, or make a new friend? What if told you, all your nightmares were true? Would you hide from the demons, or face them on que? What if I told you, the Devil was real? Would you pray for forgiveness, or would you make a deal? What if I told you, that Gods up above? Would you fall to your knees, or turn your back on his love? What if I told you, what you needed to hear? Would it stick in your mind, or just pass through your ear? What if I told you, that your time is up.....

    Purgatory All alone by myself, no distraction in sight. No joy, no worry, no darkness, no light. The doors are all locked, windows blocking the day. So that even the shadows cannot find their way. The last echo has left, taking my final word. To somewhere inside me, where nothing is heard. The colors have faded, no memories remain. No laughter, no sorrow, no pleasure, no pain. The emptiness swells with the numbness within. All time has been lost with no place to begin. The where's, the when's, the how's, and the who's. Along with the me's, and the them's, and the you's. Have merged into nothing, no trace can be found. No feeling, no vision, no sight, and no sound. My body unravels, as if revealing the soul. Like a nerve that has deadened, with no final goal. Embracing the senseless, I've learned to let go. Expecting to learn that which I'll never know. All the love and the lost, both wiped from the slate. As I pray for forgiveness, but I pray it's too late.

The entry can be any form of writing that you choose as long as you use the following eight words within the contents. Darkness - Light - Happy - Sad - Dream - Awake - Free - Captive The deadline for the challenge is Sunday July 13th at 12am EST. Good luck to everyone and I look forward to reading all of your works.

        Twice Upon A Time I remember the memory I had of you yesterday. You crept in my mind never mind what the letters say. You spoke of the troubles and the doubles with your vision. Always changing and rearranging your violent revisions. What you said made me dead in my heart, but not my soul. It made me strong like the song that was taking its toll. As we danced and romanced making me fall in love. I fell so fast from your cast fitting me like a glove. As it shined making me blind from who you really were. Was not clearly apparent from your stare, but I was so sure. That you were the one I was finally done with the search. For my mate it felt great, but who could've known without research. .....................................I guess no one............damn my inconsolable perch.

          The Hunt The wolf prepared to hunt again in the crisp winter air. Although the prey was sparse, the smell of rotten decay was still on his breath from yesterday's victory. Before leaving the den the wolf turned to take one last look at a tiny pair of eyes leering at him with a sadness all too familiar. This winter has been a particular hard one on the small family leaving them cold and underweight. Still too little and weak for his first hunt, the young cub stood to his feet and whimpered a goodbye to the wolf as he exited the comfort and protection of the small home for two. He needed to find food quickly due to the days growing shorter and the nights growing longer and colder than any nights that the wolf had ever endured in his short #life. It had only been one season since his mother had left the same den to search for nourishment for him and his newborn brother. Where did she go? Why did she never return? How will we survive? Their were many questions going through the adolescents mind as he assumed the role of the sole provider of the young duo. With nothing more than a willingness to make sure that his younger brother would never have to suffer the same questions, the young wolf preceded to forget all doubt and despair and become a father. We will live.....we will live.....we will live.....The hunt has begun. #wordroulette
