Moonlight Cry

Just something I randomly thought off.

The night rises and the day sets. The door creaks and the birds scatter. 

In the middle of a forest in an old broken down oak wood cottage a butcher's knife slowly slides off the pink flesh it has dug into. 

Why me..?

She asks herself.

Why me!?

With a clang and a thunk the damp red knife crashes on the moonlit floor. Starring into the moon through the tattered curtains and broken window, she drops. She screams and she pulls ferociously on her olive brown hair. 

A hand slowly creeps next to her. Trying, desperately trying to grab the silver hem of her gown. She looks at the head beside her. The head of a man she once knew. Blood pouring tap like out of from a wound on his neck. Dripping slowly towards her legs. 

She grabs the knife.

Away from the cottage, and into the woods. It sounds like a lumber jack is hard at work...

So she killed the man? Did she kill herself, too? This story is like those assignments given by English/Lit. professors for their students in college. It think it's driving me nuts trying to figure it out because it's expertly written (I feel like I'm reading a classic short story by Ernest Hemingway?) It's very intriguing. I am not very good at story interpretations so please shed some light, I love what you've written!

Thanks! Also thanks for the friend add+Group invite, might not be able to be active to much because of University.

Lets just say she turned him into "sawdust". I wanted to try practicing a bit.

When I saw your group I remembered a Romance story I written but gave up after like 2 chapters. It's about a nerdy guy falling in love with a dancer. Might just put it up here.

I see.. :)

I put up the group 'cause I strongly believe that all Filipino writers are Romance writers and that's because, well, we're Filipinos! ;) Can't wait to read your story! (Who knows, you might finish it here in WC.)
