what i like to do, if i can't sleep, is read a good book; fall in love with one of the characters; then continue the story afterward in a dream.

Only one thing remains certain for all time. The universe is infinitely beautiful. You, as part of this infinitely beautiful universe, are in turn, infinitely beautiful. So look up at the stars, in all the wonder and splendor, and know that in my eyes and in my heart, I look at you the same way.

Don't know why I'm surviving every lonely day
When there's got to be no chance for me
My life would end and it doesn't matter how I cry
My tears of love are a waste of time
If I turn away am I strong enough to see it through
Go crazy is what I will do

* If I can't have you, I don't want nobody baby
If I can't have you ah ah, I can't have you
I don't want nobody baby, if I can't have you ah ah

Can't let go and it doesn't matter how I try
I gave it all so easily to you my love
To dreams that never will come true
Am I strong enough to see it through
Go crazy is what I will do

A mirror caught in Dreams
Reflect the me within
Bringing nightmares out
Fear and loathing about

I stand at an open door
but only darkness I see
Do I frequent this place?
This is all new to me.

Fear grips my heart
Fear grips my soul
What will happen?
What was my goal?

It all seems so close
a memory from afar
it comes and goes
bottled in a jar

Break it open
let me take the first leap
but what if i fall
I'm already in too deep

But what awaits me
on the other side
I'll go through the door
and find a place to hide!

--For you, don't fear the next step!
--Ever step you take, I'll be right next to you!
--You're never alone!

when your world is gone
and there is nothing left
and in the darkness
your echoes wept

just turn around
nothing to find
turn back
to darkness blind

feel the whisper
in your mind
a simple tune
from behind

in this dark you will never be
alone as long as you have me

drift into dreams
clouds of perly white
blue skies above
this just before night

when stars show their faces
to bright up the dream
as you fly into the darkness
into forever so it would seem

floating on forever
forever is no more
time does not exist
happyness to the core

overwhelming peace
a time that never ends
in this technocoloured landscape
where life itself bends

and untill you wake
until your fantasy undone
have a fantastic time
until daybreak does come

-For you, you know who you are <3

My nightmares thunder around me
Shaking the ground on which I stand
I fall to my knees and cry out
Crawling scorn on this sacred land

Bare knees, ground to the bone
look up and the road never ends
Tar tearing at my tired skin
pain, longing for a life that mends

my mind tells to head east
my body tells to head south
I'm finished I want no more
I fail to speak for my dry mouth

try to cry out
nothing is heard
I wake up screaming
this is absurd

How I wish I could cry
Open the bottle and let it out
How I wish someone would hear
This pain and self doubt

These are for an old friend.

When ever you need a friend,
someone to understand,
you'll find me right behind you,
waiting to lend a hand.

---

Tell me your secrets.

I want to climb inside your head
and sleep among the dead
to find I sleep alone
cold to the bone

you're hiding in the shadows
afraid to speak your mind
tell me your secrets
that in yourself you find

free yourself from misery
come let me understand
free yourself from slavery
let us free this barren land

don't hide your hearts desires
your pain and suffering
share them with your friend
who's heart is opening

come rest in my arms
comfort you will find
filling you with peace
breaking the secrets that bind

Ok. So due to my work load I haven't been able to think about my novel much, however, I've been writing a lot of technical documentation for the company.

I've decided to rally the words from those documents and use them instead of a NaNo Novel. So far I've reached over 5500 words with my document on website design theory and suggestions for the company website.

Next is a Support documentation on most frequent product problems and their solutions as well as detailing the troubleshooting process.
Other updates as they come in!

Its nano time again. Some ideas for stories that i've been thinking about?

Bounty Hunters
The first and most likely is as follows. Building on my story from last year, our bounty hunter brother pair get a new lead to the ongoing bounty they're both seeking out. On their quest they encounter a space station that is in criticle condition. Being of the moral nature they just have to help out.
Back home the rest of their tournament clan discover new secrets abut the bounty hunter brothers as well as their ongoing quest for the most difficult bounty they've ever had to track down.

Untitled story of Space Mice Pirates
Our pirate mice fly around in a ship shaped like a hamster wheel. Their ongoing mission, to get cheese. Not for themselves but for the poorer outlying mouse communities.
There are at least 5 mice on the ship, they walk on their hind legs, speak to each other, dress up like 1800th century pirates. They are pretty much chaotic good. Think of Firefly/Serenity but with mice.

Fantasy: The Desert Mage
This is an old story. Some parts can be found further back in this blog. Basically a Mage finds a baby who has the ability to become a great Mage. This Mage decides to take the baby into his care, train him, teach him, and turn him into a decent mage. Desert Mages are not entirely human, in fact they are almost Elf Like.
They're like battle mages who are adept in both the magic arts and martial arts.
The ongoing story, to seek out the evil Mages, who live in the depths of the earth, and kill them. They evil mages are known for disturbing entire comunities, killing, taking at will, and destroying all life in their paths. Most of the Desert used to be lush forest and grassland but was turned to desert by the evil mages.

More ideas to come later.
