Alright so, as I have mentioned in other stories, I am in college right now. A junior actually because I'm so far ahead in my credit hours. But anyway, for my final portfolio in English, we had to think of something dealing with a learning experience.
What did I do?
I said forget that, I'm writing original pieces! So, with that in mind, I wrote five original pieces based on my personal memories of Santa Claus, the Tooth Fairy, the Easter Bunny, the Sandman, and the Boogeyman. Now these pieces, I will say, APPLY TO MY MEMORIES OF SAID PEOPLE AS I ALWAYS KNEW THEM. And while the Guardians and Pitch were the ones whom made me think about my childhood, these stories are not specifically about them. They are about the figures in a general sense of how I always knew them to be. However, my friend said I should post them since they can apply to the Guardians and Pitch in a sense. But these are indeed ORIGINAL PIECES that I wrote for my COLLEGE PORTFOLIO based on MY MEMORIES AS A CHILD AND HOW I KNEW ALL OF THEM AS A CHILD. English 2001 I believe it was. Something like that. Anyway, I'll be posting one every other day. Ish. If people like them. If not, I'll just delete this as I'm proud of them whether others are or not.
Do you believe in the legends of old?
In tales told to children at their bedside, in their moments of wonder and fear?
Do you believe?
I do.
No matter my age.
No matter my gender.
No matter what others may say.
I believe.
Until time ebbs away, and even memories of such stories are all that are left, I shall believe.
Though I cannot see them; I cannot prove them.
You shall never darken my heart.
I hear the whispers.
I hear the darkness creeping.
I hear the soft thumps upon the grass.
I hear the beating of fragile wings.
I hear the bells of old.
Can you hear them?
They see you.
They know you.
Do you believe?
I do.
I believe.
