Lightening lit the black sky, striking out to all points visible in the horizon. Thunder rumbled as waves crashed against the shore.

She stumbled forward, her fingertips brushing against the grain.

Rain pounded to the earth, eroding lose ground and stinging the flesh.

She stumbled again, losing her balance on the unsteady surface. Knees landed against sand as she fell forward. Her forehead landed against the wet sand and she stayed there for a moment drawing in much needed air.

'In and out, in and out' she repeated in her head while she sucked in as much air as was humanly possible.

As the wind whipped strands of crushed garnet hair against doll like skin, she threw her head back. Rain beat against flesh, plastering strands of hair to her face and washed away signs of the tears that pooled from her chocolate fudge eyes.

Lightening flashed again, illuminating the angst. Her body shook as she chocked back sobs, as muffled sound emitted from her lips; as pain wretched through her soul.

She watched as lightening rippled from here to there, as electricity crackled through the air.

Her lips parted as a scream ripped from her lungs, the angst and pain as plain as the primitive emotions. It caught in the wind and chased away the time as the tears fell freshly opened wounds.

Slowly she lifted her hands, the sand she had been clutching fell.

"Why?" she screamed, the rawness of her feelings present?

The metal glistened with the next flash of lightening and than it was gone, plunged into her breast as though guided by imaginary hands.

Her screamed ripped through the air; tears streamed down her face as she pulled the knife from muscle and flesh. It moved slowly, her hands guiding it back until it rested against bloody palms.

Muscles trembling she lifted those open palms and the pain slowly spread.

Her eyes closed as she felt the soft caress of his mouth against hers; as crimson blood trickled between parted lips.

The knife fell to the ground, landing silently in the sand as final breath choked itself from her body.

She fell forward, her face falling to the side. Soulless eyes as cold as ice watched the rain fall. Watched as it slowly washed away the clotting blood down the sandy shore and into the ocean. Watched as her life was carried away by the ragging water - - alone.

Fall has finally arrived. I woke up thinking it was going to be somewhat warm so after my shower, I took a moment to shave my legs and rub in some mint lotion so that I could wear a pair of shorts. Well, when mom and I went out to venture to Big Lots, it was actually somewhat chilly. And the air had the autumn smell too it, that special sunlight filling the air and that feeling that all is...well beautiful. Since my new classes haven't started yet, I didn't have to rush home and complete homework. We did pick up some new garden tools since ours are dead or lost for only $2.50 each. Tomorrow morning mom and I are planning on getting up and going to find mums to plant in the front garden. We've got to replant her bulbs that got pulled up when we ripped out all the old plants so we'll probably do that too. Of course, the temperature is suppose to only be in the 60's so I think I'll wear Jeans and a t-shirt instead of shorts! LOL.

My second to last semester begins on Wednesday and it's not looking to bad. I've got Law Office Management which sounds pretty boring but pretty informative and I've also got American Women which seems to be a history class of sorts. I've been reading the text book to get a head start and I'm actually enjoying it so far. Yeah, freaky, I know. But it's really interesting.

Well, time for bed. I am planning on working on icons and such tomorrow but we all know how well I do when I plan stuff. LOL.

Night all.
