I woke up about 11 a.m. with my head pounding and my mouth dry. I’m still amazed the blood splattered all around the room and not on me.

Look Back
You suddenly feel the cold shiver run up your spine. But you still won’t turn your head to look back.
Matters of the Heart
My ex-husband told me that he would steal my heart again.
It now sits in a jar on his nightstand.
Her Mother
My five year old daughter asks her mother to read her a bedtime story every night.
Her mother died five years ago in childbirth.
I smiled as I watched the lady scold herself for being so scared when that stupid black cat had jumped in front of her in that dark alley. That smile turned into a grin when I realized she hadn’t noticed me standing right behind her.
Truth is more horrific than fiction
Most girls first memories are of being given a bottle, or rocked to sleep.
Mine is of being raped.
Well, you are…
They say you are what you eat. According to his driver’s license, I’m now Virginia Resident ‘John Tuckett’.
A Lotta Heart
They always said she had a big heart. It’s true, I can’t fit my hand around the damn thing.
wii sports
i was playing wii sports bowling home alone against myself with two controllers. it was the other controllers turn so i walked over to pick it up but it was gone and i heard “strike” from behind me.
Too kind
A stranger once asked if I could lend him a hand, so I did. He never gave it back.
Gesundheit
I sneezed once, twice, three times in succession. A thin voice beside the bed cackled “God bless you.”
Feral
The sound of the growling dog pulled me from a deep slumber. I don’t own a dog.
Mirror Mirror
As I hunched over the sink to spit out a mouthful of toothpaste, my eyes flickered toward the mirror. My reflection was standing erect, watching me.
Riverbound
My throat was cut, my hands and feet bound, I slowly sank into the river as the world became darkness, my thoughts lingering around the dark shapes who threw me in.
And here I lie, telling my story to all I pull down, again and again, forever and always, till my ropes are cut.
Chocolate Milk
Yesterday, I had a glass of chocolate milk. I woke up in the hospital poisoned.
Santa Claws
As I finished tucking the last present under the tree, I turned and saw him standing there next to the burning fire, black and smoldering and hungrily staring at me with those malignant ruby eyes. “Look who was on the naughty list this year…” he rasped as he reached out with those liver-spotted, withered hands greedily pawing my cold, sweaty and suddenly not so young looking flesh .
Neighborhood Watch
I was posting up fliers for my missing cat Whiskers where I ran into my neighbor. who complimented the design on my shirt, before making a lengthy step over a puddle.
I just stood and watched the casual old man walk away, curious as to how he was able to flawlessly navigate a path despite his blindness.
Lovely
I wish you knew just how I feel, how you are the only thing on my mind all day, how much I love you, love the way you smell, the way you look when you sleep.
Some of these days I really should introduce myself to you.
Calling?
I was walking somewhere and I was getting a phone call. Then I realized that there was no mobile service.
The message
…Later that day I received a message on my phone that said “You were the only one there, you know who killed me!” It was from my wife, she kept my phone number and charged my phone, after I passed away 6 months ago just to hear my voice on the Voice Mail.
