sabrina commented on the post, actual 4 months, 4 weeks ago
the actual truth of the matter was, she had no idea what he was talking about. but of course, she couldn’t say that, so she played along like the best of them, while, silently, panicking on the inside. she could only stay hidden for so long.

A formation of clay and water–not concrete until the little hands of others grasp it as firmly as you do. a conception, a beginning.

“No,” she thrust her chin out, willfully. “I’m not going to marry some stupid prince with yellow teeth and bad breath.” With a toss of her bubblegum pink locks, she turned on her heel and left the room.

sabrina wrote about the word centerpiece 1 year, 5 months ago
The true centerpiece of her ensemble, however, was her hat. Plumed with fine, soft feathers that rose high above her neat chignon, its lavender netting and silk was of the latest styles in Paris. And though her face was breathtakingly, heartrendingly beautiful, it was her hat that brought all eyes to her. And she met [...]

sabrina wrote about the word husband 1 year, 6 months ago
She was his, and he was hers, and they settled in the tired routine called life, comfortable with their place in the world. And as the years flew from under their feet, and youth was buried under soft, wrinkly skin, like a waistband that’s lost its elastic, they were there for each other, for what [...]

sabrina wrote about the word warfare 1 year, 7 months ago
Her silence was stony, and his just as solid, they stood aloof, angry, the air bristling with tension. Insults were thrown like arrows, meant to hurt, and they clouded the sky like large black birds. This was the kind of war that could only result in heartbreak; where, instead of tanks and guns and missiles, [...]

The sky was breaking, disintegrating, as the lighting hit the ground with the thud of a giant’s footsteps. It cracked into pieces, like old paint, curling up and falling, raining down onto the ground, the manicured lawns of Suburbia littered with grey shards of cloud and air.

The cast of the play bowed once, twice, and three times, smiling widely as the deep red curtain descended in front of them. Dropping their fake, Vaseline-teethed grins, they then hurried to their individual dressing rooms, not stopping to speak to each other. In fact, behind the scenes, they were all very curt towards each [...]

She couldn’t remember the last time she had felt so…empty. He had been a whirlwind, or a broken ice cream machine, doling out the sweetness good and fast some days, while on others, shut up tight and stiff, silent and gleaming, an ice sculpture.

He wasn’t handsome, but his visage called for attention; sideburns too long, the menancing smile he now wore too wide for his face.. She cowered against the alley wall, trapped like an animal in a cage. And he laughed a wicked laugh, both of them knew the ending to this story. No one escapes Jack [...]

sabrina wrote about the word despair 1 year, 11 months ago
It was despair that clutched her chest and tore her into the pieces that lay on the floor. Despair, that swooped in and ‘comforted,’ but in truth, made even more broken. Despair that clung to the curtains and the quilt under which she curled, despair that thickened the air and made the room ten degrees [...]

Mint, and freshly cut grass, that’s what she remembered from that night. Breathing in and smelling the dark night air and the lawn, the warmth radiating off his body and being absorbed by her own. He lingered closer and closer, she looked down awkwardly and fumbled with her hands, nervous; it didn’t take a physic [...]

sabrina wrote about the word curious 2 years ago
Curious, she peeked through the keyhole, curtained by shadow and secrecy, the two things she dared to look straight in the face. Curious, she loved, kissed behind the elm trees of the forest, strands of dewdrop-pearls on a spiderweb. and Curious, she laughed, curious, she wrote, curious, she listened, and curious, she lived.

sabrina wrote about the word vodka 2 years ago
Vodka, that was the smell. The room reeked of it, and bottles of the stuff lay everywhere; I stepped over one gingerly as I made my way further into the room. And it was then when I realized that the stench of alcohol covered a deeper, darker, smell: the smell of the dead body rotting [...]

sabrina wrote about the word wasteland 2 years ago
Wasteland, that’s all it was now. Barren, nothing, inhabited by only a silly, empty woman sitting next to a silly, empty man. She sighed as she closed her eyes, blocking out the view of her former home; then, lifting her startling green eyes to the sky, she ran.
