Ghost Train
"They laid tracks for a ghost train," said the engineer. "But who's going to ride it? Ghosts don't buy tickets!"
The rest of the crew laughed, but that night, the train arrived. The ghosts got on, and the engineer was forced to work overtime.
"I thought you said they don't buy tickets!" he grumbled.

Garden Of Lust
From a bed of roses
To a bed of nettles
Smooth satin sheets
Becoming metal
Tender whispers
On plumped up pillows
Now bitter pills
And weeping willows
Love was taken
Not returned
Lust's a lesson
Never learned

Mistletoe Mistakes
They wanted to kiss
Yet missed
With Mistletoe
How could they resist?
What he didn't know
Was he'd stood
On her toe
A short lived bliss
All of their hoping
Just turned into hopping!

I-solation
Frantically he taps on the glass
Louder as they pass
Now he screams
But not through a window
It's a screen
Nobody knows
He's scrolling
His soul away

The Vaper
He was her dragon
Didn't have talons
But their 'nomance'
Dragged on
He kept
Her waiting
In a 'complicationship'
Reputation of
A reptile
Scaly, bit flaky
A hazardous lizard
Still
In a puff
Of sweet vaporised smoke
She was sucked
Back in

Cold calling
A bit of poetic free styling flash fiction
Phone rings
It's him
She recognises
The tone
'Are you alone?'
He moaned
Sounding
So far away
'Please, don't
Hang up
Stay'
He says
Funny how he never
Called when
He was alive

Blind Date
A bit of poetical flash fiction....
They will never forget
The moment they met
And all the expectations
That didn't

She's Trying
{She's Trying}
She's trying to forget:
She's trying truly to
force herself to
forget about the
conversations
between them
She's trying so hard
to forget his voice
She's trying to forget
how he made her laugh
even though she felt like
she's was dying on
the inside
She's trying to forget
all the beautiful
romance...

to the outside world
around her and even
