The Beating of the Clock

The stillness of the house accentuates the sound of the clock.

What am I but forward momentum and food for worms? How can I be moving forward and sitting so still that my very soul burns?

I want to do so much with my days yet I find them wasted with trivial purists. Education is but one for I do not think for myself. My time feels wasted. My gift of life is abused. My time feels misused.

I want to be in love again but I fear this time around, that time will desert me and that love shall never be found.

I want to create a work of art, an ode to those passionate and free. I feel like all of society is expecting something different from me.

I can not help but wonder when my path shall not be as rocky, then I wonder how can I ever let a few pebbles stop me?

To my art I pray to guide me on my way. Let me live a life of plenty as I spill black ink to my grave.

To the woman I desire, the one who sets my soul afire, we can't fix what has been broken, the pieces on the floor have been swept away. I tell you now though we can create something better and I won't let you get in my way. I love you. I always have. I'm coming to get you. So smile and be glad.

Bloodlust: An Arrow Fanfiction

All characters and locations are the explicit and intellectual property of DC Comics and The CW.  This story will not be used for profit without first obtaining the express written consent of the property holders.  I'm a huge fan of the show Arrow. I watch the thing on a weekly basis and just can't get enough. So I decided to write a breif little fan fiction for fun. I hope you enjoy it and check out the show if you haven't done so already. It's soooooooooooooo good! Enjoy, Gabriel Janas Bloodlust: An Arrow Fanfiction   “What a night,” Oliver sighed heavily to himself as he slowly made his way down the steel staircase towards the basement of his nightclub Verdant.             What had once been his father’s decrepit factory in The Glades of Starling City was now home to the hottest nightclub in town.   Its sublevels also happened to be a convenient base of operations for what ha...

I Am A Contradiction

I know too much and I know too little. The desires within me are tempered and yet too wild, like an ecosystem constantly shifting and changing. I am too young and inexperienced, yet too old and wise for much of anything to be a surprise, and yet I'm surprised all the same. Serene like a pool of water yet violent like an exploding volcano, my sense of peace is constantly fleeting, yet the peace I know comes from the familiar constant battle within. I spend long days working towards my future yet forgetting to live in the moment, but the moment in which I live builds the basis for my future. Stars twinkle within my eyes, and sun sets in a fiery death. The blackness encroaches on my soul, yet it still feels lighter than a feather and brighter when I let it glow. I am happy with who I am, yet sad all the same for the journey to who I want to be seems endless, a winding road I must travel alone. I have made many friends, yet lost just as much. My touch can be hotter than fire, but if tu...

Smoaked Out: The Secret Diary of Felicity Smoak-Chapter 4

Smoaked Out-Ch.4 December. 5. 2012 Good evening/ morning Diary,             You know how I said before that work's been pretty boring lately?   Well, I take that back.   The last two days were actually quite interesting.   What happened you ask?   Well let me tell you.   For the past few days I've been doing some extracurricular work, particularly on the subject of Ms. Queen's accidental money mishap.   As luck would have it, or skill in this case, I found something.   With Mr. Steele coming back from his trip the same day, I decided not to waste any time in telling him...and hey I may even get a possible promotion because I'm so good at what I do (Not only was that not the case, but I almost got fired in the process!).             Walking into Mr. Steele's office later that evening I quickly grabbed his at...
