Her beauty is like no other

Her beauty is like no other

by Waldt Steyn


No eyes of stars shall grace this verse,

Yet their charm, no gem can disperse,

For your light shines from eyes with grace,

It outshines all jewels in any place.


Your skin is flawed, as silk be fair,

Yet it tells stories and memories, I can't help but stare,

Each flaw a map drawn in with lead,

A statement, a path, the life you tread.


Though you may fade and your perfume depart,

Your scent remains, and lingers in my heart,

A fragrance of love, one worthy to weep,

A treasure more precious than secrets we keep.


So here lies my tribute, a verse that's sincere,

To your beauty that's unequivocally clear,

In your imperfections a work of art shines,

A love untamed by conventional lines.

Unexpectedly, Ebrius's staff started to whine and puff smoke, rattling and tensing up, crackling and splintering. But instead of ending his performance as usual, Ebrius pushed forward

Tales of Telemberg prologue

 About: Tales of Telemberg is a fantasy story I've been working on filled with rich story telling and will keep updating till finshed! Prologue: The crackling and sparking of wood, accompanied by bright shimmers of red ribbons, licking and scorching the once cold stone walls of Kemeron's hall, signaled the beginning of the devastating inferno. The valleys of previously crowded passages leading deep into the mountain, with polished marble floors, mirrored the shimmer of golden flames that were eating through the heart of the city. The scent of unsold breads, butters, and wines roasting and boiling in the market was overwhelmed by the strong, lingering smell of charcoal emanating from the once-proud carpenter's workshop. The smoke that filled the vast and seemingly endless corridors had begun to seep through the sweeping steel gates. The clouds burnt black from the smoke and coiled far and wide, covering the heavens of Telemberg. By now, news of the great calamity had spread
