Composition de L'amour

An original piece by AJ Writer

My heart skipped a beat as it danced to the rhythm of his broken composition. Broken by the pain of his past, of love lost in incomplete incoherent sounds of sweet nothings and abstract promises. I want nothing more than to pick up those pieces and place them amongst the whole notes of my heart on a blank sheet of opportunity. Let's create beautiful music together. The melodic exoticism connected my Queen with his King as we peacefully grazed on the far-off land of our past while holding hands as we enjoyed the blessing of our creator to begin that which is anew. We are ever so blessed with never-ending eternity. How strophic this love as each tune repeats, causing our love to float through time and space? The sweet sound of my treble clashes with the deep hard stroke of the bass that exudes from my King causing a dissonance that only our creator can put to rest by noting that it is our calling - to love endlessly & tirelessly as if we know of nothing else. Oh my love, how dreadful a sky without the stars. As am I nothing without the beat of your drum and the caress of your might. I am yours and you are mine. Allow your heart to bleed on my blank pages as our hearts intertwine and form a Composition of Love.

  1. First, as an art collector, that artwork is gorgeous.

    The written art is swoon-worthy. I immediately thought of Song of Solomon for some reason upon reading. I absolutely love it. What would have made it even more perfect is if this had been published on Valentine's Day.

Down by the River

This city, while full of the impoverished and sprinkled with some middle-class families and abandoned buildings has some of the most beautiful scenery I’ve ever seen. There’s literally nothing to do besides enjoy the beaches and parks, parking-lot-pimp, and walk or ride your bike to hang at your people’s crib. Unfortunately, I didn’t get to do much of either while growing up, and the sheltered life caused deep-rooted issues that I could never get a handle on. My dad was a single parent. His wife, our mom, died from breast cancer a few short years after they adopted us. The area we grew up in was a little rough, but I didn't understand why we couldn't hang with friends or do normal kid stuff. We found random things to do at home, like create court cases. I'd always be the lawyer, and we'd dress Trav up to be the defendant. I remember our favorite character to dress him as was a robust old man who was always caught harassing the neighborhood kids and screaming ...

Pain is Pleasure

I think I went too far this time. He’s pissed. Beyond pissed.  Normally he doesn’t mind my casual flirting. But tonight? Tonight goes way past the level of me not giving a fuck. If looks could kill, I'd be casket sharp right now with my friends and family mourning the loss of their beloved. But fuck all that. He had it coming. He’s angrily pumping the gas. If he does it any rougher he’ll break the nozzle off in the tank of his pretty red Camaro.  I had no words for him. Silence would be his fate from now until I felt like he deserved to hear me speak. I’m used to seeing him act a little jealous when we’re out, but the way he snatched me up out the club’s emergency exit doors after my stunt gave jealous a new meaning.

A Christmas Affair

I was almost sleeping when he began blowing up my phone. He called twelve times. Eleven times I hit the red button on my phone. The twelfth time I picked up and screamed at the remorseful voice on the other end.  “Can we please talk?” “Stop fucking calling me! I hate you! Leave me the fuck alone!” ***
