Serpent's 
A page of destiny
torn from the anchor.
Weight translucent 
in the prisms of salt. 
The arc of spines
and the heave of breath.
Furrowed brows 
and bows of waves
crashing,
in a posthumous 
plea of anger.
Lost we take our
fate and burn from
the rope as it coils
like a snake ready
to take glory.
But hatches battened
and fear aside.
Terror and calm 
on a sea of Serpent's.
We win the day.
We loose the gold
from our hands but
we are richer and
fiercely determined 
in our gentle hearts.

Marine Love (boyxboy) by AliceElizabeth321

"Careful human." The...thing said in a concerned voice. "W-What are you, what d-do you want?" I shakily asked him, curling up my body protecting myself. "Shh human don't be afraid. You are my mate." What is a mate? Why did he bring me here? Who is he? Why is he looking at me like that? From the distance I put between us I could admire him more, and his tail. He really is beautiful. It was a deep teal green colour with gold and blue blended in with it that reminded me of his eyes. He was holding himself up with his arms looking at me curiously, head slightly bent to the side and all. "What are you, what do you want?" I asked slowly, my heartbeat had almost reduced to normal again but I was feeling a strange pull towards the creature in front of me. "I am a Merman and you are my mate." His voice was deep and sounded like music the way he spoke. But mate? "Mate?" I asked hoping to find out the way in which he directed this word. "My love," he paused looking into my hazel eyes. "Come closer human you are beautiful...and mine."

❝ but this time i will not be lifted from the realms of this catastrophe, this time i will be dipped into the honeyed lox of this saccharine thought; drowning in the depths of the wilted tulips that have not ever to sprout. look at these alstroemerias that blossom from the words that spill from my bleeding heart and plum stained lips; apple juice coating the rim of this glass of champagne in which these sinful creatures drown with their blistered wings. now watch as i am coaxed by the orbs of lavender bruises with hands wrapped around my neck.❞ • my abstract poetry book. lowercase intended. ©️ copyright 2020 nazahace - all rights reserved.

"This is me trying..." (Book 1 of the Storm Decology) by slythtpsq0c

"Who's your godly parent?" He asked, narrowing his eyes. "Hold your horses kid" I wiped my sweaty palm on my jeans and stuck out my hand. "Zeus, my name's Victoria, my friends call me Vicky" He grabbed my hand hesitantly and looked me in the eyes as though he was trying to read me. I narrowed my bright blue eyes and forced some static electricity in between his hand and my own. He yanked his hand back, hissing in pain. "Well hello Vicky" he said, clutching his hand. "Bold of you to assume you're one of my friends" I said goading him. I circled him, looking him up and down, assessing his every move, the way he shifted his weight from the left leg to the right, the way his eyes hadn't broken contact with mine since I shocked him. "Well, I have been known to be bold," he said, blinking slowly.

A Coil of Shadows and Sunlight by AkiNoHyo

In a world where power decides fate, those born without magic-the Snakes-are seen as cursed, descendants of the Great White Serpent that was cast into the depths long ago. They are outcasts, prey for the Sun-Blessed, who wield magic like gods and rule with an iron grip. Mila has always known what she is-a Snake, meant to bow, meant to suffer. Until the day she is thrown from the heights, left to die at the hands of the powerful. But death never comes. Her blood ignites. Her body shifts. And from the abyss, she rises-a dragon reborn. Across the golden spires, Prince Edwin is raised to believe his destiny is to command a great dragon, just as his ancestors did before him. The world is his to rule, and the Snakes are his to crush. But Edwin is soft, too kind for a world built on cruelty. He dreams of peace, of change-of a future where power isn't everything. When fate binds the prince and the dragon together, their worlds collide in a way neither could have expected. Mila is no servant, and Edwin is no tyrant-but in a world that demands they be enemies, can they rewrite the story written in their blood? A legend reborn. A kingdom on the brink. And two souls bound by fate, standing on opposite sides of a war that has raged for centuries.
