There was a body in a casket,

Stiff and still,

The man inside the casket had no pulse or never will,

My mother stood by  there for five whole minutes,

She whispered theses words I will never forget,

I will always love you,

I knew she saw her life go away,

He was her world that she just said goodbye,

A room full of people who could care less,

Along with the man and his famous index cards,

We head outside to see a piece of wood that means more than words could,

However his name is misspelled,

Damn the man with his famous index cards with in hands reach,

Here the man in the casket was once was the father of a girl who I no longer am,

He is a father of a girl who always wears a smile not one who is on the verge of A mental brake-down,

He is a father of another family,

One with a mother who is the reason they came up with the word sunshine,

The girl with the younger sister who she looks out for,

Not a younger sister who looks out for the older one,

His body is now in the ground that has a plank over the spot,

A name that is not my fathers because the story has changed,

A family with no father,

A mother who they created the word deppesion for,

A older sister who is a child at most,

A girl who is stronger than both,

This time his name read off Edggar Finch,

A guy who I never knew,

My father was named Edgar Finch they most of had the wrong name.

See for yourself it's all a cruel joke,

Until I remember the body I saw in the casket,

They had the right person just the wrong name.

A Lord and Lace (Regency au! Prince Arthur x oc) by kfacecookie
1 part Complete
A wayward regency au one shot I wrote for fun, and because the concept wouldn't stop haunting my mind. ~ Trying to get back up after his ex-fiancé left him, Lord Arthur Pendragon relents to his friends and families idea of hosting a party in his family's estate. Although holding up hope for a new love that evening, he could not predict falling head over heel for a woman with haunted eyes, who secretly hides a crooked and wicked grin and a spark of intrigue unlike any he's glimpses before. After catching the sight of that side of her, and the way her families mistreatment severely dampens it, he finds himself sure of one thing. He's going to get her out their grasp, but doing so might be more tricky then first expected. Miss Harriet Frodesdotter is stuck in a hell of constantly being forced into a uncomfortable, lace covered, dress, into unbearably loud ballrooms, and dealing with condescending suitors that her controlling sister manages to steer towards her. The sudden approach by a Lord Pendragon does make her pause however, his sweet and concerned eyes appearing to be almost horrifyingly sincere as he offers to help her with her family issues. She doesn't trust him, he's not the first to claim to be her savour for purely selfish reasons, but something tells her that there's something more to him, and not in a bad way. ~ Content warning for ableism, family issues (including abuse, I don't perceive it as especially graphic, but it's there) and depictions of meltdowns.

Betrayed and killed by the people she loves the most, Evelyn Stone is given a second chance to live and this time she swears on her dead mother that she'll make them pay and no matter what. She was determined to tear apart fake lotus and slap green tea bitches and write the wrongs of her past starting with the man who loved her the most. But then again what will she do when the man who loves her the most is the coldest to her ?. But when he begins to love, he pampers her to the sky . "Young Master your house is too dull" she complained with a pout. "What colours do you like?" he asked staring at the cute blue eyed rabbit. "Nothing particular just bright colours" she replied nonchalantly and the next day the house appeared as though a rainbow party was thrown there. "First Master she bullied me". "Kill her" was his reply. "Young Master the Madam is being sued for millions of dollars for hitting someone she shouldn't have "he reported. "Add a few more millions and let the Madam be bold again to hit him ". "The Madam's ex is feeling sorry and is pursuing her to take him back. Today he sent ninety nine roses to her "he reported. "Prepare the car send a thousand roses " Of course when she stab he held the knife, when she slaps he utterly destroys, when she's unhappy even hellfire trembles. There was nothing she desired that wasn't hers even if it was his own soul. People say he loved her more than God loved the world.
