Lilly and Jason since infants had been side by side; almost joined at the hip, they were inseparable. They had been introduced when they were small as the future of the two of them would be completed by marriage, ever since the moment of their introduction they spent every possible waking moment together doing the most glorious and imaginative of things. Jason thought the world of Lilly, if ever he found the prettiest flower in the garden it reminded him of her and he just had to give it to her. Whenever Lilly saw something so beautiful so once in a lifetime, she just had to show Jason, they shared everything with each other. The days soon flew by spent side by side until one terrible day in May, it was only a month from summer yet the weather had a sting in its tail and whipped up the worst of storms seen in years. Growing up in the Deep South in the deepest depths of Louisiana it wasn’t uncommon to have such foul weather but at this time of year it was unthinkable. Jason’s mother clearly warned him of the impending storms but he chose not to listen, for more important to him was that to see Lilly the very same day, he hadn’t missed a day seeing her not even when she had Chicken Pox he would risk his own health just so she didn’t have to beat it alone. On her way to meet Jason, Lilly was unaware that the gentle breeze that blew her hair would swiftly turn into a monsoon only heard about in adventure books. As Lilly crossed by the river she and Jason crossed every day the wind picked up, she held on for as long as she can but being only eight years old she didn’t have a lot of strength. Losing her footing and falling into the river, she was unable to swim against the wind that blew the water in every direction; Jason knew nothing of this as his mother had locked all the doors so he was unable to escape. Lilly meanwhile was carried away by the increased current of the water, and far out doomed to be lost forever.

Let Me In- A Dark Fantasy Love Tale
The moon hung heavy in the sky, a silent sentinel over the dense forest that stretched beyond the kingdom's walls. No one dared enter-at least, no one who valued their life. For within those woods, dark things moved, hidden creatures that whispered in the night, and a shadow far older than any living being. Lily had been told since she was a child to stay far from the forest's edge, its twisted trees and unseen dangers a story passed down through generations. But despite her parents' warnings and the countless nights she spent staring out her tower window, longing for the freedom the world beyond offered, she was always drawn to it. There was something in the air-the scent of adventure, the promise of a life beyond her gilded cage-that called to her. The castle, for all its grandeur, was a prison in her eyes. She was a princess, yes, but not the kind whose heart was ever truly free. Her life had been shaped by rules and expectations, and though she smiled and played the part, something inside her yearned for more. More than perfect gowns and endless balls. More than endless stories of a world she would never know. On the night of the setting sun, when the sky bled into a thousand hues of purple and orange, Lily could no longer resist. The pull was too strong. And so, she slipped away-quietly, unnoticed-into the very woods they had warned her to avoid. She didn't know what waited for her there, only that she had to go. It was a journey into the unknown, and it might very well be her last. But what awaited her in the heart of the forest wasn't a creature of nightmare, but something far more dangerous-a whisper on the wind, a voice that promised her everything she had ever dreamed of. A voice that said, "Let me in."Complete

Everything Has Changed
"If you asked me three months ago what heartbreak was, I would tell you it's losing somebody close to you due to unspeakable circumstances. But right now, in this moment, I would say it's you. I would say it's the feeling I got in my chest when I realized I was out of time. When I stood in the rain and yelled for you to stay, but all I saw was your back. I would say heartbreak is lying in bed at two in the morning, watching my ceiling fan go around and around, wondering why you couldn't stop to listen. Two seconds. All I needed was two seconds to say the words. All I needed was to seconds for me to tell you I was in love with you. With everything about you. With the way you move, and the feeling of your arms around me. With the feeling of your chest vibrating as you laugh. Heartbreak is falling in love with everything about you, but having the words permanently stuck in my throat." _____ Gracelyn Levinsky grew up with Daniel Grey.

Heaven On Earth
It seems like just yesterday I was saved. Not knowing what to do next or where I should go. Little by little I had to find my way and put together the lessons I was taught from different sources to seemingly lead a holy life. My supreme happiness came from when I found Jesus. Little did I know all I had to do was dwell in his heart and he would provide me with the wisdom I need and show me the things I could only fantasize about. Things like these seemed to me too precious to keep hidden, and that's when I knew I just had to share Who He is to the whole world. Visions, testimonies, miracles and more came knocking at my door leading me into a dose of Heaven on Earth. Blue Roses for My Bride series: Book 1 NOTE I am not a writer, but I do enjoy writing.

Mermaids, beaches, fairies! this place is awesome. someone then snatched the book out my hands. "Mermaids? what is this crap?" I looked up to see Cynthia and her clique. "why do you carry this thing around with you all the time?" I stood up and held out my hand. "give it back." "why? it's not like you can read it, you're stupid." Her words didn't mean anything to me but those words are going to come back to me tonight and punch me in the face. "How old are you? aren't you like 16 and reading this children's book?" How long have you been here Michelle? Tears welled up in my eyes. I knew what was coming next. "answer me, hoe!" "10 years" I mumbled. "10 years and still haven't been adopted? that's sad. why are you still living? no one loves you. no one ever will. I bet your parents crashed their car on purpose just to get away from you." I had enough. I threw myself at her. I slammed my fists into her pretty face. then her clique joined in. I was outnumbered. Everything got blurry after the second kick. They continued and I blacked out.Complete
