she waned and waxed like light filtering through a window, chained to nothing but a fate of drifting. he, boy of tragedy and curses, could only grasp for her warmth. he floated on the waves of fate -- still no home in sight. she the goddess and he the loathed; what a beautiful calamity that made.

To someone like Asher Wentz, singing in a band and playing his trusty Fender is the greatest kind of therapy. Music takes the edge off. It enables Asher to escape from the crowding thoughts rampaging through his mind. The chaos is taking control. The troubles of his past are catching up with him and he's afraid that someday soon he won't be able to continue the fight. Battling with inner demons and sanity isn't an easy task. Words and ideas get lost along the way and there are days when the darkness creeps in, breaking down the walls that he's spent too long trying to build. Writing lyrics just might be the only thing that can save his life.

I felt the sweat trickling down my face, my breath was barely there. Lance was far ahead, his endurance surprised me, what motivated him to run so painstakingly fast every time? What... Motivated me? The snow fell from the heavens, a remnant from two years ago. When I passed the old willow tree, I remembered Grace again, like I remembered her yesterday and the day before that, and the day before that one. She was the only reason I had for putting up with that hag's ridiculous routine. I gathered my strength and trained my eyes on the horizon, picking up my speed after finding my stamina, I sprinted to Lance, just like I had done everyday. Without any words passing between us, we both ran our hardest toward the same goal. - Here is Marie Eloise Ashwinter, at just twelve years of age she's catapulted into a world of magic and mayhem after the supposed death of her dearest friend Grace. Along with her companions, unique in both ability and personality, they will set out on a journey riddled with danger. From a lecherous warlock flanked with an army of maids, to the foreboding keep of the Winter Witch that sits at the heart of the Northern Mountains. Learning in love, mistakes and friendship, Marie fast approaches the threshold of adulthood as a fistful of obstacles lie in wait. With the loss of her parents plaguing her past, the absence of Grace consuming her at present, and a world of adventure awaiting her future, she will blossom into a woman who shall inspire a generation.

The life of a thief isn't for the faint of heart. Jade Briar has become accustomed to this way of life; always on the run, always hiding. She has gotten used to seeing her bounty on city walls and hearing her name cursed by angry voices in the dead of night. Everything was fine... Until she got caught. After five years of thievery, Jade expects to be killed. Instead, the King gives her a tempting offer: her help, for her freedom.

❝ she won't be a damsel in distress nor will she be someone as important. but she'll be there to redress your wounds and swab every hurting scar clean. she'll scare the hell out of you, but she'll keep your demons at bay. she won't cry pretty, but at least she'll try to cry all of the guilt off. and she isn't that easy on the eyes but her words will cling to you like a battle armour, fending, protecting. she can be your savior if you let her. ❞ → #5 in poetry [12/28/19] → featured in 'Summer Workshop 2016' as 'Talk of the Workshop'
