There He Lies by alcedo-susurrus, literature

Literature

There He Lies

He lies there, the man who taught me what strength really is, unable to even lift his arm; turning his head a challenging task and standing an impossible one. There he lies the man who told me to be independent, having to resort to wetting the bed; counting on someone else to bathe him, unable to even eat. Lying there is the man who taught me to use my head, drooling, slurring words in fragmented sentences; unable to even recall who I am. And it's there he shows me what hope looks like, when it begins to wane when it looks as if the night has come, until he looks outside and sees the sun. He lies there, the

It's Late by alcedo-susurrus, literature

Literature

It's Late

It’s late and I should be asleep, but I can’t seem to close my eyes. I can feel the day take its toll but something else tears at my soul. The silent nights, the fading light, the gentle kiss; I reminisce over the times that were my prime. And I found myself staring at the same ten digits every night, and I can hear the echo still of the phone smashing on the floor. A fleeting yelp, calling for help. I need your strength, for but the length of an hour; but one hour. And yet it is not fair for me to rob you of that hour’s bliss, to tear you away from your love; from your friends, yourself, from your life.

Have You by alcedo-susurrus, literature

Have You

Have you ever stared to the sky as the sun sank wondering why we're so alone amidst this world. Have you ever watched as leaves twirled, laughing as they danced, on the breeze; their whimsical fall from the trees. Have you ever lain in a tree's shade questioning choices that you've made, forgetting time as hours pass. Have you walked across lush green grass admiring a silken rose, but to get mud upon your clothes. Have you looked to the faint starlight in awe as their grace fills the night, but feel more like the waning moon. Have you held someone leaving soon, wanting to save them from all harm, and yet awake to empty arm

Rains' Whisper by alcedo-susurrus, literature

Literature

Rains' Whisper

How softly the gentle rains call as they fall, trickling through the trees' branches and leaves to the lush green grass. Sitting here within the door frame I stare at the grey skies tinted with a pastel blue and the sun's faint rays. With the warmth of this spring morning wrapped about my shoulders, I close my eyes and relax taking a deep breath. The cool breeze intertwining with my fingers, I trace these unwritten thoughts on the wind, where they'll drift away. All those words that fall from my lips but remain unspoken for the silence of the day, and the rains' whisper. Alcedo Susurrus

Remember

0 min read

Remember that feeling of weightlessness each time that you reached the top and paused for just a moment when swinging as a child, do you recall how heavy you felt as you passed the ground at the bottom of that same swing. . . It seems as if life is made to bring us back to that; each day, month, or year filled with a series of rising and falling. Just after opening this account I was pulled away for three months, unplugged and back to the woods and nature that I love so much. Only to find more trees being removed, and few more miles being cleared for housing, parking, stores. . . Now having returned home, and begun classes, feeling renewed a

Hello. :3

You're most welcome. Hey, don't worry about it, I'm not going to do much updates either since I'm studying in a university of applied sciences so I'm horribly busy as well not mentioned that I also have to work the weekends.

Take care now and hopefully your dad will be better.
