Creative Writing: Moving Into A Townhome

The drive home was difficult; his vision swam and his muscles felt stiff and achy. Too bright city lights glared at him, pierced his eyes. His head throbbed, beat, beat, beat, in rhythm with his racing heart. Nausea rocked in his stomach and every noise seemed amplified. Why were these damn people driving so slowly? He needed to get home; he was already late as it was, and his father wouldn't be pleased.

I remember how cold it was that night I met her, I was shivering

I am walking. Thats pretty much all I’d done in the past seven hours since I got off the speed rail in Denver. I am from San Francisco island about 300 miles off the coast of mainland United States. The name is misleading, it isn’t actually an island. It used to be part of the rest of the United States but when the water started to rise it along with a couple other large cities near the coast built a water wall. And then they built another wall and eventually built one thousand feet high all the way around the city so when the water rose to cover most of what used to be California, San Francisco survived. My entire life I’d heard about the mainland and the natural beauty it bore. In the hundred years since the great wall was built and the

A thick blanket of clouds soon engulfed the sky followed by an unstintingly mild breeze for the month of January , but it wasn't enough of a deterrent as they only temporarily need to lower their signs so as to prevent them to be blow amok like confetti in breeze. Upon glancing over to the white house it was undeniable the way it gazed back. It didn't seem as white a sit usually is and it did not nod speak its daily words of optimism, but instead of dubious skepticism to their daunting task to which they were moments away from
