Nocturnal Stories

raw, unflinching journey through the heart of depression, poems that feel, ache, and linger beneath the skin

Lyrics for a future EP, under my moniker The Wandering Faith.

Based on the Concept Album made by Nocturne's Kiss titled The Edge Of The Outside In a grim future, the United States has become divided into two nations. In the southern nation of Hemlock, the controlled masses known as "Victims" are refused simple rights known to American in the past such as the rights to love freely, speak your mind, or freedom of religion. The Deceivers are working to control the population and keep a constant state of war. The Infiltrators do the dirty work of the Deceivers. An everyday citizen, Blue, known in Hemlock as Subject 1116, has had enough of these rules and has decided he would rather live life as a fugitive participating in acts of love than to be a mindless pawn of the Deceivers of Hemlock. This is his story. Might not be completely accurate to the story but I'm trying my best here :(

Kendra Wild, a trouble-seeking, fire-loving, nocturnal teenage girl has always seen better in the dark. She was never afraid, she embraced it. Even when others despised her for it. Freak. Lunatic. Psycho. She ignored their name-calling, until someone decided to take it a step further. Her life ended abruptly, but she began to question shortly thereafter if maybe her life was just beginning. Her death brought her to the world she was meant to live in, along with the dragon she was meant to raise. Until, of course, she began to threaten the worlds balance with her strange ways.

The ups, the downs, the good days, and the bad. What's the use of a relationship book if you only say the good things? Hate to break it to ya, love is painful just as much as it is amazing.

At the foot of the mystical Mount Salak, Bara, a street artist, finds inspiration in the energy that emanates from the mountain. With his brush, he creates murals that come alive under the moonlight, captivating the city with the beauty of the nocturnal world. But beneath the surface lies a hidden threat: a sinister cult seeking to steal the energy of the Nightstone, an ancient artifact connected to the mountain. Bara must learn to control his powers and protect Mount Salak from the encroaching darkness.

Cheshire, England. A classic countryside scene. Little would you know that Vamps and their Hunters reside in the place formerly known for footballers, posh old people and wealth. Nancy's life gets turned upside down by new friend Patrick when he introduces her to the darker side of her new home. Will she manage to stay alive or will she run back to Baltimore as fast as she can? **Chapter 1 isn't great but it gets better as it goes on, don't give up on it!! Haha**

A project for my high school english class.

Hunter called himself an archaeologist, but he was a modern day treasure hunter. Tiyana was a scientist devoted to her craft. They were passionate people, wholly devoted to their work. Neither of them had time for love. Neither of them could resist it when it happened. Neither of them knew that the world would need the two of them to save it from a tyrannical pre-historic overlord, his cyborg vampire paramour, and their army of mindless drudges. Dawn of the Epoch is an epic science fiction novel about dark matter, death rays, nuclear warfare, and the Large Hadron Collider, but it is also a fantasy novel about medieval warriors, alchemy, and ancient gods. Dawn of the Epoch blends fantasy with reality, bringing mythology to life today. It is also an apocalyptic thriller spanning the globe from the Pyramids of Egypt to the heart of Africa to the majesty of the Himalayas. It is an epic hybrid-genre story with intense action sequences, magic, mythology, suspenseful plot twists, countless obstacles for the protagonists to overcome, and an utterly Machiavellian supernatural villain. Testimonials: "Probably one of my favorite books I've read to date. Brilliantly complex, adoringly rendered and quizzically intense. A must read and one I plan to revisit, and share!" - Amgwatts, Wattpad Reader "This has to be one of the most original and well written novels I have had the pleasure to read, on Wattpad and in general. It was captivating, interesting, immersive and above all, fantastic. I was left in awe of the beings, history and world you created. It was never dull, dry or predicable and it was a nice change from what seems to be the ever popular teen romance with vampires or werewolves or 'bad boys that are actually romantic good boys.' In the end it was a very pleasant surprise." -IridescentLies, Wattpad Reader http://dawnoftheepoch.weebly.com

A road construction site in Poland uncovers decapitated skeletons with their skulls placed between their knees or hands-an ancient method used to keep supposed vampires from rising. As archaeologists investigate, the graves begin to shift, stones crack, and the soil exhales cold mist, until the bodies vanish entirely, leaving only dragging footprints leading away from the open earth.

i want to hear your stories every time the moon comes to visit. [ongoing, VERY slow updates]

A night in the car when rain falls. On the car glass water drips down. You want to change your life. A life in a cage: love, work, everything. Limits that shouldn't have been crossed, documents that shouldn't have been revealed.

A homeless magician struggling to keep his sanity during trying times turns into a force for good despite his severe and dark past.

"I can't believe you're doing this right now." Harry says shaking his head in disbelief. I scoff at his words, "No." shaking my head and turning towards him with a pained and tired expression. "You don't get to blame this on me, not when you-" I stumble on my words thinking back to that painful night, "not when you-". I stop trying to form the words all together. It's too painful to even try and word his sins even in my head, wording his very actions that have caused me so much heartache... I need a cigarette. I swore I wouldn't touch them again, and I had been doing so good... for him. But I lost him, so what's the fucking point of keeping my promise when he couldn't even keep his? You know the unspoken promise we make to our lovers when we commit to them? And yet somehow all my past lovers had a problem with doing just that, keeping that promise, the promise to be faithful. That's what he is now, just another past lover. Another one bites the dust yet again, can my track record possibly get any worse?
