Eagles fly up Souring high above the clouds There they see the earth Clad in its utmost beauty Created in perfection The perfect work of a perfectionist A creativity not known to man The waters separate from land Water with its mighty force Could have drowned the earth in a heartbeat But my, it stays in its place Not wanting to upset its creator The sun, moon and stars Should have all fallen by now But nay, they stay put up there Gloriously doing their bid The ant, one of the tiniest creatures Going about its business down there Looks up and admires creation Stars shining bright in the night sky Moon in the shape of an orange or banana Trees standing tall with fruits hanging sweet Birds flying and singing as they go What more could we ask for? Why then do we lament? We have a creator who’s got our back Making all things beautiful Even when we deserve less Things are gonna go sour, yes But they ain’t gonna stay so...

When days are frail My eyes are pale My heart reveals The horror within The hearts of those Whose hearts are closed Pretending to love Sharing your laugh But evil grows therein Hidden in feigned smiles Sweetie, light Outshines darkness I laugh, I write I sing, I dance The evil you think Does me no harm It makes me stronger Whiles eating your whole You watch and wait Hoping to witness me fail But hell blazing NO! You will witness The wonder that erupts From within me

Preparation towards the burial was unimaginably painful. She had a full life ahead of her only to be   cut abruptly. Her demise left the girls astonished. They wondered if it was worth loving a man that much. What a shame it had to end this way. It was so unexpected. Anytime Aria had tried taking her life, someone was always in time to save her but that was not to be this time around.       Keith tried to be helpful but the girls dint want him around and they very well made it clear to him. It was his entire fault to begin with and they couldn’t stand his sight. He tried helplessly to reach out to the girls but they wouldn’t have it.   Keith couldn’t believe Aria took her life because of him. He hadn’t meant for it to end that way. Ever since Aria caught him in bed with Julie, things hadn’t remained the same; she dint trust him no more so he thought he was doing them both a favor when he suggested the breakup.     Apparentl...

Dear you, I knew you young You did me wrong My tiny heart was muzzled Away you went, far from me Glad I was the day you left Blossomed I did As each year passed You harassed me now Calling me selfish Craving my presence I gave it a try Moved in with you Thinking, she must have changed I’ll give in my all, I thought A sister, I might find But the nagging never stopped Be careful my friends warned But I pushed it aside with my trusting heart And wrong you proved me Now my weeping heart Is closed forever to you The cat is loose Quit pretending Not everyone loves their kind This I know now Sincerely yours Signed Lali Torks

Emily, after listening to Aria’s distressed message tried reaching her but anytime she called, it went straight to voice-mail. She had left lots of messages but still got no response from her. This got her worried. She called Marjorie and Rhea to find out if they had heard from her but neither of them had. Concerned, Emily drove to Aria’s home.  She rang the bell several times but no answer. Emily grew more anxious. She knew what Aria could do in a depressed state.  She ran to the next house to fetch Paul. He forced the door open and Emily rushed in to find Aria lying unconscious on the bathroom floor with blood oozing from her wrist. Amidst sobbing and shaky hands, she dialed 911. Within a few minutes, paramedics arrived at the house. They tried to stabilize Aria but it was too late.
