  • Bridge To Cross

    They say words mean something or nothing at all. In the old wing of the mind, where curtains never quite let daylight in, those words gather like dust and like prayer. They could be true, false, or the careful lies someone tells themselves to make a wound less loud. In that place she lived—always moving,…

  • The Shadows Between

    Comfort is not always found in the warmth of the sun. Sometimes it waits in the dark spaces between this and that, in the hushed corridors of the in-between. These are places where shadows roam freely, where secrets linger behind half-shuttered eyes, and where the cobwebs in forgotten corners glisten like veils. The dark is…

  • There it sat.A thing, once forged with purpose, now dulled by time and comfort. Not broken. Not ruined. Just… hollow. Not by accident, but by design. Its shape still held, the surface intact, but what echoed inside was nothing. No resonance, no meaning—just a vacuum of self-importance. To the untrained eye, perhaps it was still…

  • They said silence was golden, but they never mentioned how heavy it could get. The face on the wall is not screaming. Not quite. It’s the kind of expression that happens just after the scream stops. When the echo folds itself into your ribs, and the birds begin to fly out of your mouth because…

  • First thought

    It wasn’t named yet. The thing the child saw. It had no label, no boundary, no fixed place in the catalog of what’s real and what’s not. It just was. Suspended there like a question that had forgotten how to end. The child blinked. It didn’t go away.Instead, it shimmered — not like light, but…

  • The Mirror

    The mirror in the hallway blinked before you did. It didn’t speak. It didn’t shimmer. It simply waited. You told yourself it was your imagination—the way the air thickened when you passed, the way your reflection lingered a second too long. But you felt it. That hum beneath the surface. That presence watching from behind…

  • Walking among shadows

    There is a certain kind of ache in walking awake among the sleepwalkers. You feel it in your bones before you ever speak a word—that pull between knowing and pretending.You remember what it felt like to wear the mask.To shrink your voice down into something digestible.To smile when the room was cold, just to keep…

  • There’s a moment, quiet as a breath, loud as a scream, where the creator finally stirs behind sleeping eyes. Not awake yet. But close. Close enough to feel the hum beneath the skin, the ancient rhythm that calls them by name, the one they forgot. Or pretended to. They stretch. Not with limbs, but with…

  • You weren’t meant to remember all of this.Not yet.But there you are… remembering anyway. At first it came in flashes, didn’t it?Like static between radio stations — faces you never met, places you couldn’t have known.But somehow they belonged to you.Somehow, they were you. The watcher woke up before the story ended.And in that pause…

  • The Watcher

    It begins with a quiet hum. Not a sound, exactly. More like the feeling of breath before it becomes wind. A signal so subtle most miss it unless they’ve sat still long enough to forget they were waiting. I was the one waiting.I thought I was the one watching.But I wasn’t. I was being watched—by…
