Home can be a place that might not seem real to some.
But it is all too real nonetheless.
It is a place where you know the people.
Places that you remember where you met that friend and this friend,.
Where so many “Remember that one time when…” moments happened.
And yes, where you lost that someone.
But there were others who could help you shoulder the pain.
A refuge from the craziness of life.
The deep breath needed.
The smile that gets you thru.
The place where you belong.

CRInktober 2018 Day 7: Battle
‘Tis always been a bit of a battle
The world and them within it.
But a polite one, civil-like.
Battle to gain
Battle to obtain
Battle to live
Consequences you can live with
(After a fashion)
Lessons & memories to keep to you
Some would say ’twas a battle against
The one who made the world.
Others, mayhap, tell of you that was and
you that is now.
CRInktober 2018 Day 6: Family
A conversation led to a dream rekindled
Small bands came together for an adventure
One and done.
But something happened, unknown at first.
A second meeting.
The adventure grew.
The world grew.
And the band became one party.
The acquaintances became friends.
Became a family.
Than another chance conversation.
And the family is shared with strangers.
Strangers who become friends.
Who became the family extended.
Sharing the dream grown into reality.
Sharing the joys and pain.
Sharing bits of themselves.
And spreading the dream born one night.
CRInktober Day 5: Life
“Life has a cycle.
Life is a cycle.
It goes this way and that.
It starts, goes on, and ends.
And the end is just as much a part of life as the beginning.
Growth is life.
Decay is life.
Love is life.
Anger is life.
Life is so much more than you let it be sometimes.
It encompasses so much.
And the best we can do
Is to let it happen.
And act accordingly.”
CRInktober 2018 Day 3: (a) Favorite NPC
She sits in her palace by the sea
Missing her precious jewel.
The outside world holds so much to fear,
And her heart is out in it.
But there’s whispers that come in the night.
A voice that fills her with joy.
And the knowledge of the friends that watch over her jewel.
So she keeps the company that floods to her.
And the hope for the some day,
When a proud heart relents
And her daughter comes home.
Til then she holds her court
And her tears
With a smile and a song.
CRInktober 2018 Day 2: Favorite Campaign 2 Character
Light shining so bright
Dragged into the Ever clinging Darkness.
Murderer by Deception
Orphan by Lies
The true at fault not hated
Near as the unknowing weapon
But a new family offers a new chance
Walls do not tumble,
But holes are punched thru.
Would-be Master of Time
Penance never to be gained
“Do what I must
to save those around me.
But to be Damned is as good as I deserve.”
CRInktober 2018 Day 1: Favorite Campaign 1 Character
He walks as in dusk.
His only light
the other half of himself.
Reluctant to be here
But no other where to be.
Then came another tether to the light
One that gave him reason to dream.
But he kept the dusk around him.
Til his first light was fading
And a deal struck with the Night.
A Night without feeling or regard
Swift to claim Her prize.
Now in the full dark he walks.
Save for a brief moment,
When his Lights shone on him again.
