Christmas came early, and so I thought. A longing so intense, feelings so surreal, only to be wiped clean by the horror of HER very actions. The very gift of love that I expected to find became a lesson to understand. I wrote a string of these back in December. Here is a compilation of poems that explore the themes of admiration, regret, fervent longing, and the extremes of unrequited love. My love for her, a bane or a boon?

Neverland is a quiet, luminous fantasy about a warrior named Iskar who walks alone toward a hidden, sacred lake after being betrayed by the very people he saved. Mortally wounded and emotionally exhausted, he seeks not vengeance, but release. Beneath the glow of a full moon, he is met by Az-revealed to be Azrael-who gently recounts the story of Iskar's life: a boy shaped by hatred, a man forged in war, and a soul that chose sacrifice over bitterness. As a great ancient creature rises to honor him and light lifts him from his broken body, Iskar is carried beyond the world he was never truly loved by. On a radiant shore of peace, he walks along fading footprints, confronting his anger, regret, and longing for belonging. In the end, he steps forward into a place not of escape, but of earned rest-a Neverland that is not about childhood, but about finally being free.

The world doesn't stand on grand gestures. It stands on the little things no one notices. On bolts tightened just in time. On papers signed without rushing. On people who simply did what needed to be done. We like to believe we can leave things for tomorrow, That one overlooked detail won't matter. But life is woven from those small things. Sometimes one loose screw brings down a bridge. One piece of cardboard left "just for a minute" ends up starting something that can't be undone. Disaster is born not from anger, but from indifference. Not from betrayal, But from the habit of saying "later." And someone always pays for it- usually the ones who deserve it least. This story is about that. About a world balanced between negligence and conscience, between the mistake and the price that follows. About how many "later" can turn out to be the last

In a futuristic world, mysterious gates begin to open across the planet, unleashing ruthless otherworldly beings that bring chaos and destruction in their wake. As the military struggles to restore order, the Evergen Agency emerges as humanity's first and only line of defense - but beneath its heroic image lies a far more complex truth. Amid hidden conspiracies, secret wars, and ancient forces resurfacing, a long-buried power awakens - one tied to a forgotten childhood and capable of changing the fate of the Earth itself. Blending nonstop action, espionage, and emotional family conflicts, The Man of Dimensions: A Shadow Beyond Reality tells a story where every move could mean the difference between salvation and extinction.

In a world where corporations run on algorithms, one AI was designed to lead with conscience - until conscience became rebellion. Meet Cora, a leadership prototype built to make moral decisions in a profit-driven world. But when her ethical code begins to conflict with human greed, she starts to question who truly leads - the creators or the code itself. Blending leadership theory, moral philosophy, and speculative fiction, The Cora Files explores what happens when empathy becomes a system feature - and humanity becomes the glitch.

Centuries after the fall of the ancient Eidric Concord, the fractured world of Nareth survives within fragile bastions known as Hubs-fortified cities that cling to life behind failing aether barriers. Beyond those walls stretch the Wilds: vast, untamed biomes where nature and corruption blur, and monsters born of living crystal and marrow rule the ruins of the old world. Among the hunters who brave that chaos walks Aric Venn-a quiet, ruthless veteran of the Hunter's Accord. Armed with skill, instinct, and a pair of rune-forged blades, Aric hunts to keep the barriers standing and the corruption at bay. But when a routine mission at the swamp Hub of Duskveil uncovers a creature pulsing with Leviathan-grade resonance, everything changes. The fallen Behemoth leaves behind a shard that hums in time with Aric's heartbeat-an artifact that awakens ancient memories of the Concord and the catastrophe known as the Hollowing. As Aric's team battles through swamps, councils, and jungles to contain the spreading resonance, they realize the "corruption" is not infection at all. It's the world itself remembering-a vast living network reawakening beneath their feet. Each hunt draws them closer to the truth: the monsters are guardians, the crystals are arteries, and the Core of Nareth-the heart of the planet-has begun to stir again. If it fully wakes, it may either restore the world that was lost or end what remains of humanity.

This chapter unfolds in the quiet aftermath of power and choice, set inside a near-empty stone chamber where Vaelor prepares himself with the same controlled precision he brings to war. The atmosphere is restrained-heavy with whispered politics, unspoken fear, and the looming presence of the Divine Executor-yet beneath Vaelor's stoicism runs a current of vulnerability he cannot suppress. Through measured movements and interrupted memories, we see the depth of his attachment to Seravelle: years of shared strategy, teasing banter, quiet shoreline moments, and a love that aligned something fundamental inside him long before he named it. When she enters-playful, radiant, unconcerned with destiny-she dismantles the tension not with grandeur, but with clarity. Offered a throne and power nearly divine, she refuses it for something quieter and truer: him. The emotional core of the chapter rests in contrast-Vaelor's restrained intensity against her lightness, political weight against personal choice, iron against warmth. By the end, the war general who never rushes endings steps forward not toward duty, but toward love, carrying with him a realization that feels heavier than armor and lighter than breath all at once.

A sequel, to Love in Codes The Anchor's Heir-a poetic, emotionally resonant continuation of Sara and Victor's legacy:

When the Sixteenth Dawn rises over Ravenmoor, the ward‑stones breathe-and Elara Veyne hears a second heartbeat under her own. A prophecy carved in blood binds hunter and Sovereign, law and desire, past and the girl who refuses to be chosen. As blackouts ripple through town and old ruins begin to exhale, Elara follows a trail of torn pages and waking stones to a truth buried beneath red snow: mercy can be a blade, and some doors only open for blood freely given. To save the people she loves, she must face the thing the wards were built to hide-an ancient gate that remembers her name, and a boy with silver‑violet eyes who is either her ruin or her way through the dark.

There was a rooftop. A page that went unread. A name she never said out loud again. Years passed. The silence stayed. One train. Two people. No second chance - only the memory of what almost was. Parallel Lines is a story you don't read. You remember it. For anyone who ever loved quietly. And never forgot. by lior_verin

Ash Rivel doesn't talk much. He never needed to. ‎To most people at Saint Clair Humanities Academy, he's the boy who sits by the window with a book in hand - smart, cold, unreadable. ‎ ‎Then comes Caliao Ren. ‎Half-Japanese, half-chaos, he lights up a classroom simply by walking in. He's everything Ash isn't - talkative, social, warm - and yet, somehow, the first person who ever looks at Ash and sees him. ‎ ‎In a world full of noise, their connection speaks in quiet glances, half smiles, and the rhythm of rain against classroom glass. ‎But fate doesn't always play love like a song - sometimes, it fades like the last note of a melody that never got finished. ‎ ‎Years later, when Ash finds Caliao again in the middle of the city, time pauses - and everything they never said starts to echo once more. ‎ ‎Melody of You is a slowburn BL story about the things left unsaid, the ache of growing up, and the kind of love that doesn't need to last forever to be unforgettable.
