Story Idea

A man is married to a woman
The man dies
The woman gets remarried and has kids
The man comes back from the dead
He thinks he's still alive
He comes back to his wife
He meets the children and thinks it's his
He meets the other man and gets angry
He then realizes that the kids aren't his
He 'haunts' the family with rage, trying to kill them all
He manages to kill the other man and children
He tries talking to the mourning wife
But she can't hear him and he gets angry, trying to kill her
But she's so depressed that she kills herself
The man never realizes that he's dead and 'lives' depressingly...forever!

...or something like that...

Something useful when writing:

So now I'm trying to write a short story and I'm a little bit nervous. When it comes to writing poetry, it just seems to come naturally to me and the job is almost effortless. Short stories, however, are a little more difficult for myself. Words are nice, but I find the task of connecting them with logic and proper sentences as well as having to make sense of them, a challenge. Every time I've tried to write a story, I've always gotten stuck somewhere along the line, but then again, what writer doesn't? This time, I will try my hardest to attempt a complete and entertaining short story that hopefully a reader may enjoy.

Storyline: An inhumane cannibal is living in a maze deep inside an abandoned castle of England, where tourists and other people come to find the mystery of those who went missing in there, only to be trapped souls, as well, and eaten by the cannibal himself. A boy, young and smart, is drawn to the castle and is intrigued by the mystery that later unfolds before him as he enters the castle, himself, and explores the depth of the maze to meet the fiend who is guilty of the crimes.

I suppose I shouldn't put down all of what happens, or else I'll just give away my whole story right there. Well, basically, what I'm going to try to do is to just write it as a 'short' story, not the long ones that I usually strive for because I usually end up giving up on those. And I will do whatever I can to keep myself writing and to not get the story of track of what should really happen. I pretty much have all I need except for the tiny little details that I'm not too worried about. Well, thanks for tuning in. =]

When hunger strikes

Whispers, hums, haunted slums;
Ghostly figures leaving a trail of crumbs
Of bones and blood and hair and nails
And little snails to be swallowed down later.
Desert comes first, always the children,
The young and the weak
Are the ones they'll seek.
After comes a meal; Proper and satisfying.
Humans, animals, anything to sink teeth into;
There is no limit when it comes to something to chew
Whether it be a kangaroo or even a canoe
Because when stomachs are growling
The creatures turn vicious,
The sky turn to darkness,
Eyes search desperately for something delicious,
And, hungrily, tongues hang down from mouths
Until something is spotted and hastily consumed
Then lips are splattered with red and drool.
Those silly things can be so cruel!

No one cares

Call me apathy
Cause that's my specialty
I don't care
And you don't care
And we won't care
When we get there

Well, we're all here
With our own ears
But we can't hear
When the world is beating a pounding heart
Cause no one cares
And no one dares
And no one likes to be the one that shares

Call me apathy
Cause that's my specialty
I don't care
And you don't care
Well, no one cares
Now, how's that fair?

Open Eyes

Open eyes
I wake to your smile
My dreams of you won’t fade
Along those gray dark days

Merry gaze
Still follows me today
Please don’t forget me babe
You’re my one and only fate

My one real true soul mate

[Chorus:]
Through water and land
Alone I could stand
But together with you
Stronger I grew
More than I wanted to be
More than our eyes could see

Open eyes
I lie by your side
Surrounded by warmth
And I know there is no harm

Happy daze
We’re blinded by love
But we know what we have
And we won’t resist this spell

‘Cause we’re inseparable

[Bridge:]
Forever we’ll be
Together you’ll see
We’re destiny

[Chorus]

Through water and land
Through water and land


***A love song...yeaaa grossss...>.>
