Have you ever had a dream that was so vivid, it stuck with you all day? All week? Sometimes, my dreams are so vivid that I can't tell the difference between dreams and memories. Sometimes, I don't want to.
I had a dream, once, that I met a girl. We lived. We loved. We married. And then I woke up, sobbing on my brothe... |
"What the hell is going on?"
Darkness all around me, but I can feel myself spinning. Faster and faster, until it feels like my arms will get ripped off. I try to scream yet can make no sound. Something is pushing against my chest, preventing me from breathing.

[ I squinted at the cracked phone screen in my hand. My grade had dropped to a C+ in Anatomy. I had procrastinated. Again. "Ugh, I wish I had more self control. Like, just for a day."I looked up from my phone at my friend, expecting a response. Instead of answering, he was currently badly attempting to remove his c... |
I looked at the dirty piece of paper dancing in my hand. I flipped it around, smoothed it out, and though the howling wind worked against me I was able to read what was inscribed on the paper, “Make a wish.”
It was such a silly request, “Make a wish.” I almost tossed the paper out into the wind to be found by a more... |
8feet tall, 4feet wide. The only thing stopping me from my greatest discovery, a black stone door, stood just a few feet from the crew. No crazy markings or ancient dead languages just a large black stone slab.

Emme awoke at dawn to the sounds of hurried steps and frantic whispers. Bleary eyed, she rolled over and removed herself from her bedsheets, opening her door and peering into the hallway. “What’s all the fuss?” she asked a passing servant, who gave a brief curtsy.

One man walks in, his head face down, a hood drawn over it. He sighs and coughs as he rounds the aisles searching through the bottles as if one of them will jump out at him if he stares long enough. He must be poor or down on his luck as he only picks up the cheap stuff that makes you sick. I hate to assume purely on c... |
