Beloved Home

Love is a beautiful home.
Strong but breakable
if hit hard and long enough.
Sturdy enough to support you.
Built on a strong foundation
of trust.
Slowly wearing away
but still standing.
Love is a beautiful home.
It may have wears and tears,
but it's still beautiful.

Firm Love

Love is a tree branch.
Bendable to a point.
Breakable with enough weight.
Sometimes flimsy
but other times strong and sturdy.
It may waver in the storms,
but it stays attached to the foundation.
But once it falls, it slowly
decomposes until there is nothing else.
Love is a tree branch.
It may leave scratches,
but rarely destroys you.

Breaking into fiction

A dream is a book you read in your sleep,
painting vivid pictures in your mind.
Your imagination taking you to new places.
Exploring the universe.
Meeting new people.
Escaping reality.
Sometimes happy,
sometimes sad.
A dream is a book you read in your sleep.
Allowing you to escape somewhere else,
but not forever.

The Diversity of Fiction

Life is an amazing book.
Sometimes short,
othertimes long.
Sometimes exciting,
othertimes boring.
Sometimes happy,
othertimes sad.
Sometimes new,
othertimes old.
Life is an amazing book.
It varies from person to person,
but it's always an adventure.
