Contemplations Stories

A man wanders alone, lost in both time and thought in the quiet solitude of a vast forest. Under a watchful gaze, he confronts the fragmented memories of his past; his regrets, his joys, and the weight of a life lived. He relives moments of love, parenthood, and missed opportunities and finds himself reflecting on those moments of his life that consume him. This novella explores the nature of reflection, the human struggle to make peace with the self, and the choices that shape us through rich allegory and profound introspection. With stunning imagery and a narrative that invites readers to reflect on their own lives, this is a meditation on the burdens we carry and the paths we ultimately choose to walk. - - - Winner of the 2025 March Writer's Crown from the Watthub Community

A selection of my own poetry, just for fun :) Some are serious, some are light.

I'm running out of explanations here. I'm winging it. I'm always winging it. The title just felt right and damn, here we are. It's poetry so if it's not your thing, you might like it. Occasionally, it may be a little prose, depending on the feeling but we'll try to keep it consistent. Does anyone ever even read these things? Ok it's about a boy, a lonely boy. Sometimes he feels like he's a thousand leagues under the sea. Other times, it's like he's been severed from reality. Whatever that means. This boy, just wants the world to understand him. But it has no obligation to. So he's stuck on the outskirts of everything and everything else hoping for some sense of clarity. It never comes. It never will. This is a documentation, of his never ending pursuit. That was decent, right? I do love letters, letter letters, confessions, police statements on the side, in case you need them. Basically, I'll handle the ever living heaven out of your writing needs. The sick part, is that it's free so feel free.. to blast the message board and I'll take the time I usually use to do something constructive and meaningful to tend to your requests. Read well, friends.

Reflection about prayer and contemplation

Look from no end. Begin to Evaporate, Grow and gain an Identity, become one, observe the nullity of being. All will lead you Nowhere- from an impending illness, to the neutrality of self and the grandiosity of the pale nightingale. There you will find Beginning. Freely give. Let me into your mind. Let me see. By: Mac-Donald C. Jospeh

a collection of poems ranging in theme from self-love to heartbreak.

Just a girl with an obsession with strawberry Poptarts and the green and red Sour Skittles

Just a collection of short stories and poems I had written while the earth had continued to revolve around its orbit. The stories and the poems are written in pairs, at least the ones I have published till now have been in pairs. There's just something a miss these thoughts I have written, so I hope you can tell me what it is. Keeping that in mind, I am just very excited to let my once-secretly-written-and-cherished yet not so cherished penmanship be seen and judged by the virtual eyes. Honestly, quite a vulnerable job for me; I am at odds with myself. And yes, this is also a showcasing of my inability to write a coherent description to this, this- whatever it may be. Its my first time, and you know how embarrassing I sound already.

Reflecting on life's meaning and the relentless march of time, Mira Whitlock, once detached and contemplative, has been thrust into a wartime setting, in a desperate military situation, forcing her to participate in the atrocities of a losing army. Themes of sacrifice, duty, and the cost of war come to the forefront, grappling with her own existential struggles, serving as a puppet in a brutal conflict. Witness the stage sets for a narrative that navigates the complexities of human existence amid both the mundane and the extraordinary, exploring a journey from introspection to the harsh reality at the battlegrounds. <Teaser Dialogue> "It's either you die as a Hero, or live long enough to see yourself become the Villain." - Harvey Dent Interested to the story?

Poetry.

Behind these shades I watch the restless stirring in the casual earth and a desire emerges Driven and yet resistant to find its course A look at life and the world in the creative and contemplative words of the poet and author, Michael Jeremiah Tyger.

This is a collection of poems I've written, I plan on adding to the existing ones. My writing can go from the whispers of a broken soul to the chuckles of a joyous heart but overall my intention is expression. I hope that my writings remain immortalised as they touch and connect people.

A Prose Poem

Things that come to my mind. Could be poems, story prompts, short stories, or anything random.

May was a special child. She was born with a special gift. She was different; May lived, thought, and spoke her life in poem. She didn't know any other way. She was born with autism. She lived a normal life, though; she didn't struggle with anything. She had some friends; she had a lot of bullies. Since it wasn't severe, May went to a normal class. They thought she didn't belong. May wanted to belong; but she couldn't speak the way the others did. No one can go inside and know how May thought. Except you.

A contemplative poem that explores the philosophical and existential themes surrounding death. The poem presents death not as an end but as a transition to a realm beyond earthly life. It portrays death as a gentle and inevitable guide that leads us to peace and unity with the cosmos.
