The Edge by PandoraBlack, literature

Literature

The Edge

Always on the edge I walk I can't seem to find a balance My life flows like water through a rocky stream Yet I cannot see the dam at the end I know not which rocks it flows over I know not which direction it goes Ever changing ever moving I see the colors whirling before my eyes Yet I feel as though I cannot touch them I experience nothing and everything at once I drink life in and yet I am dry like the desert Always searching for more

Her Story by PandoraBlack, literature

Literature

Her Story

The walls feel so close that night, as she turns on her computer screen and bathes in its clean white light. The blank page stares at her as she contemplates how to tell her tale. The blink of the cursor taunts her, forcing her to relive it all. But how does one write what their year has been? Where does she start? To talk about her trials and tribulations seems so tiresome. The story is old and has been written so many ways, so many times. But her story is different, or so she thinks. She is special and talented and has been through so much in a short time. There has to be a story in that. A year in the life, she could think of a m

Time Passes by PandoraBlack, literature

Literature

Time Passes

Time flows through my hands like water Little drops of memory stuck to my skin Endless days, weeks, hours fall away I am left alone and weary The sun rises and sets Nothing changes but the hour Days melt into one another And I am left breathless Struggling to catch up I struggle to remember To mark this passing in some small way I need something more than just the sunrise I need your memories

What the Heart Wants by PandoraBlack, literature

Literature

What the Heart Wants

The heart wants what it wants I suppose No brain can deny it No thought, no look, no one can change it Once the heart loves, it loves There is no way around it or through it Or over or under it Once decided it is forever Time heals all wounds they say Yet it cannot dim the bright burning flames Of love once decided Oh, to love, to lose, to gain I never wish to escape thee My fickle friend

Memory by PandoraBlack, literature

Literature

Memory

Out of the blue my mind reaches to find you I seek you in the darkness of my memories What was lost returns what is found disappears I forget your eyes the image like a ripple in the water Ephemeral, fleeting I forget your smile... did I ever really see it? Wounds heal and time grows long Through the sticky fog of my mind I begin to clear the pieces of you Never will I see you... Never will I hold you... I am whole once again And I am free from your memory

Through the waves by PandoraBlack, literature

Literature

Through the waves

Where are you my love? I reach for you through the dark miles I touch a face I cannot see Love a heart I cannot feel beating Long to see those eyes looking back at me When will it end? The seconds turn to minutes And hours and days They melt into months and years When will you be here? A hand to hold Arms to fall into A heart that beats for me A love not even distance can break Yes, I will wait...

Behind His Eyes - Chapter 1 by PandoraBlack, literature

Literature

Behind His Eyes - Chapter 1

Chapter – 1 He woke up screaming, covered in a cold sweat and shaking from the memories. He could not remember the last time he had a peaceful night of sleep without the dreams that haunted him. As he rose from the bed, he was flooded with images from the dream that woke him. It was always the same, his mother screaming as he tried to wrench his father off of him and then the blows that were directed toward him for interfering. Severus Snape had led a hard life that was evident in the deep scars he carried with him. The years of blame he placed on himself for the abuse and eventual death of his mother had taken their toll. He was now a

Literature

Behind His Eyes - Chapter 2

Chapter – 2 With all his lessons written and neatly organized by year, Severus left his desk and stretched. With a shock he realized it was already one-thirty and the new professor would be upon them in just a half an hour. "Her first day," he thought to himself. "I can remember my first day here." It was late summer and a young Severus had just arrived in Hogsmead at the time he was only about 22. It was the first job he ever had after school as he had joined with the Death Eaters not long after leaving Hogwarts. He was excited and nervous, not at how he would be received by his peers because he did not care what anyone thought of him

Behind His Eyes - Chapter 3

Chapter – 3 It was now two o'clock in the afternoon and Severus quickly changed to his dressier black robes. He did not want to be late for the staff meeting Dumbledore had planned. When he entered the Great Hall, he saw that the four house tables had been pushed aside to make room for a large round table that could fit all the staff. Most professors were already sitting except for himself and Professor Flitwick who ambled in after him. "Now that everyone is assembled, I would like to take this opportunity to welcome our newest professor, Gabriella Govani," Dumbledore began as Severus and Flitwick found their seats. Two seats to his rig

Behind His Eyes - Chapter 4

Chapter – Four Severus was shaken from his reverie by the voice of Gabriella attempting to introduce herself. By this time most of the staff had retired to their offices to return to their preparations for the coming school year. He realized that he was quite alone with this woman. He looked up at her extended hand and rose from his seat shaking her hand reluctantly. "Welcome Ms. Govani," he said with his usual distain. "Hello Severus, it is wonderful to meet you. I have heard so much about your potion skills." "Ah yes," he said thinking all the while how upset he was that she had called him by his first name. He much rather preferre

Literature

Behind His Eyes - Chapter 5

Chapter – 5 Back in the peace of his office, Severus sat down at his desk. His mind kept returning to Nicollet. He had never been able to relieve himself of his guilt for leaving her with no explanation as he did nor for what ended up happening. Again he recalled his first meeting with Voldemort. Back then the Dark Lord was a thing to behold. He was all powerful and had the ability to call anyone he wished to his service. When first Severus laid eyes on him, he was taken aback by the sight. It was a dark and misty night when Lucius and Severus left the Malfoy Manor to meet with Voldemort. Lucius had been telling Severus about the Dar

Ten Years

Ten years ago the journey began with a small boy locked away in a cupboard under the stairs. Our hearts went out to him and we laughed and we cried. His triumphs were our triumphs and his sorrows broke our hearts. As the years wore on, our little boy grew and alongside him came a community of fans. All of us touched by his struggles… For ten years we have theorized, debated and yes even had knock down drag out fights about it. But they have been the best times of our lives… Through one small boy we found each other. A community formed from similar interests which grew into friendships so tightly bound that not even the end ca

Musings

0 min read

I find myself finally getting into the swing of things here.  My favorites are expanding and I finally have a home for the random poetry I write.  All in all it has been a good few months.  I seem to be sticking to the poetry lately which is really expanding that side of me but I feel such a lack of inspiration for writing stories. I am hoping that this is temporary and I will be able to start something new very soon. Until then, I hope you stick around for the poetry :D

This is where I talk about me :D

0 min read

I am an explorer of the world around me.  I love the beauty of everyday life... I see take pleasure in sunshine and I revel in the shapes of the clouds above me. I love to read and write.  I am a huge fan of Harry Potter and Anne Rice.  I write mostly fan fiction as I have no artistic talent outside of the written word (when I spell them correctly). I only have one unfinished story with Severus Snape right now, but will be creating and downloading other things soon. Come back for poetry, fan fic, and other ramblings!
