《A collection of poems by a loud mind》Book of Nightmares 4
Advertisement
The sound of crickets
occupying the quiet frustration of sleeplessness.
The soft white noise of my fan filling my mind
with a melancholy stillness,
breaking the silence echoing in my room.
The restless shaking of my leg
breaking the stationary state of my body.
My mind once filled with thoughts,
Emptied,
Giving dreams room to run free
as sleep awakes in my body.
I awake to the soft chirping of the somewhat annoying bird,
Elegantly perched on my window seal.
The ball of fur crouching in the corner of the room,
Ready to pounce at the window
Framing the ever so slightly annoying bird,
That awoke me from my slumber.
The Everlasting war between
the lethargic state of my body and my half asleep mind,
Ending in the inevitable draw,
When I am pushed out of bed by the body that owns the hand that knocked on my door.
The cold, refreshing water
washing away the weary look
Gracing me with its presents.
Paired with my morning cleanser
washing away
the unbearable mask of grime.
The mint toothpaste
stinging my eyes as I dispel the morning breath from my mouth.
The strange comfort in changing clothes,
like declaring it a new day
As you put the old ones in the dirty clothes basket,
A calming ritual to start the morning.
The soothing taste of Cinnamon spice black tea,
accompanied by,
the smell of warmed milk and brown sugar waving from my cup.
The early morning grey skies
turning into red, orange, pink, and purple hues
As the daybreaks.
The wet grass filled air,
The sun reflecting off the morning dew scattered across the lawn,
The aromatic smell of my food
replacing the cold
sharp air stabbing at my throat,
My cat,
no longer attacking my window
but purring on my leg,
As i gaze out at the scenic veiw,
Whilst sitting in one of the
picket fence white chairs that grace my porch with their existence.
I have relived these moments so many times
that my mornings and
my nights,
have become all but a small variation of this poem.
______________________________________
Okay so I made two other poems like this one that I will be publishing tomorrow.
Also I don't know what to name this so if you have an idea please comment what you think would be a fitting name for this poem.

Core Chronicles
Core Chronicles is a series of interrelated stories, including in-depth major story arcs and shorter side stories about Cores and those affected by them through direct and indirect means. The first arc is planned to be Dungeon Core with City Building elements in an Urban Fantasy setting. It will mainly follow one main character's point of view, but on occasion, the POV may shift to side characters to give more information about what is happening in the wider world. The stories will also examine how the world changes with the introduction of magic and its various purposes. The System will be between soft and crunchy, with discrete levels and stats for characteristics and skills. But, for example, the health statistic will be a less clear indicator rather than a distinct stat.

(First Draft Old Version) Ruins Of Isulia ~ Book 1 : Awakening of the Emarine
My updated version has been released but this version is still getting views so I will leave it up for now. This is the old (First draft) version. Go check out my latest version. **************** Creatures once believed to be legend have invaded the kingdom of Vulkira. King Erik must overcome this crushing responsibility or let it consume his people. A haunting past eats away at the Queen of Xer. Cara is hellbent on protecting the ones she loves and the future of her kingdom. Balancing the greater good, she fights to keep her head above the waves of guilt. In a remote town, Henry, an energetic bookworm is thrust into the world as chaos engulfs his once seemingly peaceful world. His lord has a task for him, one in which will change his life forever. Wars brew, betrayal is at each corner, shadows step into the light, a supernatural force awaits the time to strike. Awakening an ancient civilization from their past may be their only hope now. A spiraling doom awaits the world of Isulia. **************** I put the gore and traumatizing warnings not because my book is overly gory. However, there are a few moments that may be traumatizing to some people. As for the gore, it shows up fairly often but not extensively. I've always loved violence in movies and books, (The Boys, Banshee, Kingdom of heaven, Vikings, etc.) I am descriptive of the scenes with gore. So be warned :) I have multiple MC and as a nooby writer, I've had a harder time writing from a female POV. Just a heads up. Don't kill me if I make the woman in my book seem weird.

Mayhem of Magic
The world revolves around magic. The kingdom of Raekoft lives because of it. Magic is everywhere and flows through everyone and everything, seemingly with a mind of its own. Ritz Dravus is a 17-year-old teen with a rare potential in battle magic. After years of working and saving up money, he can finally attend the best magical academy in Raekoft, Liken Academy. If only he could enjoy his time there. Liken Academy is a place taken over by the upper class. A place where power rules supreme. Ritz’s humble beginnings will struggle in a place where social standing and power defines a person. Rittz will have to go through the usual school drama of making friends, keeping up with classes, dealing with crushes, fighting against bullies, growing insanity, magic manipulation, power scaling and the ever-looming threat of a neighbouring kingdom hungry for war. If magic is the first rule in this world, then mayhem would be the second. Author Note: This is a rewrite of Magic and Mayhem. I've taken a good look at where I would like to take the series and came to the conclusion that I would like to rewrite the story with a more set structure in mind. This is a full rewrite with elements like the story, style and characters changing slightly or completely. Please do give me a chance to provide all of you with a better story for all of you to enjoy. Thank you :)
