Two people, two lives, two different directions, with just a two way connection. Meeting at night, making sense of the world around and its plight, then walking away when its bright. Together through every fight, all in spirit, but not in sight. The two, 2 am friends, keeping it together by holding on tight.
Sitting on a rock at the beach, sharing a beer with her best friend she said, “I am never falling in love again, this isn’t for me, it hurts like hell” “yes it does” he sighed and looked away so she wouldn’t catch him staring at her. Some where up there fate smiled wickedly!
He loved her more than anything else in the world. .He built her a palace with beautiful gardens around it. They dined on delicacies every night then slept on satin.His passion knew no bounds. He hid her from the world and kept her just for himself. She hung herself one night. She died of excess love.
“I love my gift” Tim said excitedly as he opened it.”Why did Santa not get you anything Leo, weren’t you a good boy this year?” he asked his brother. “I don’t know” Leo replied. What he did know was that, it took all the money had saved in a year to pay for those video games.
Samuel sat on his favorite bench in central park. He had been there every morning for four decades. Reading people was his favorite pass time. People got used to seeing him there till a year back someone noticed he wasn’t around. He still read the faces he saw, the faces that couldn’t see him anymore.

She dragged one foot after the other in the direction of home. Like most days she was lost in thought. Going home worried her. The time she spent there oscillated between exhilarating and dreadful. “Last night was the scariest, I have had in a long time” she thought as she caressed the teeth marks on her wrist.
As the skies turned to the darkest shade of blue, she walked brazenly through the woods, onto the crossroads for her next kill. With the last light reflecting softly from her curvy waist, thick long hair loosely braided, she stood there draped in a black lace sari alluring everything that set eyes on her.
