Love Beats All?
You arrive home to meet your sweet heart and then notice the body sitting in the hall way. Do you scream, no, you put it back in the closet and go to find your loved one. The story of ‘The Body in Henry’s House’ is a story the holds much more meaning then it seems.
Before you get to the secret of the story you see the outside, a monsteres skin that is the body and the acts of each family member to the body. All of them except Henry were sickened by the thing at first before they learned to live around it. The words of out of sight out of mind come to play here, as the family hid the body not of shame just so it wouldn’t be in the way. The other acts were stranger, the children play with the body, Henry used it as an object to hold things up, and the grandchild took a bone for a souvenir.
Though we have learned through this story is that love will beat whatever is thrown at it. This is the lesson in ‘The Body in Henry’s House’; proof is how Lydia just shrugged the body off and stayed true to Henry, the children and grandchildren didn’t turn the Henry and Lydia into the police when they found the body, and just lived with it. With all that went on in the story the body was always there never leaving the scene that long. “the youngest one, before she joined her cousins, reached into the suitcase and took one of the pinky finger bones as a delicate souvenir” this can led you to believe that the body will even follow the family for future generations to come.
After finding love does a person need to think about their actions or is love like the ultimate drug the makes you happy forever in tell it’s gone. After all of this people still have their happy endings by ignoring the bad things and hold on to the good. ‘The Body in Henry’s House’ is a dish of things that would never fit into society but the underside is something that we all wish for, love.
Dreams
"Run RUN!" a blurred person screamed right before he was hit dead on with a bomb, not looking back, just forward, I ran. Ruble and debris hit the ground and gave me bruises, as a spark hit and set flames to yet another building. Then I turned to the alleys, dark and twisting never letting you look back just forward for better or worse. Screaming everywhere made me accelerate in tell my legs nearly broke. The bombing had stopped for now, soon I would be back for more bloodshed. I rose slowly and felt the pain from sprinting like I did, then I made the idiotic mistake to see the place where I had stopped. Between a brick wall and a mirror shop in a alley, great, looking at myself was horrible. My body covered in dirt and ruble, hair burned too close to my scalp, a bulge in my stomach, and stub bloody nails. I glared at my reflection, studying my grey/blue eyes, lips, teeth, and gave the mirror a wicked grin of a beast that cracking it. Then brushing of the jeans and T-shirt, I walked to the building where I would leave my family and friends behind, I hate this.
The building was grey and on a steep incline which made the way there quite painful. It had black for everything but it's walls, even the windows that never let any light in. but the best part was the basement, an underground lab that had three capsules, more clear tubes that would hold us in the time we would spend in them. "hello Miss Shea Thomas welcome back" a secretary in front said then continued to state that I could had down where the prepping would begin. I will not say a thing about the prepping except it was gruesome, when I reach the area that would seal my fate I was I a white dress, odd against my skin, they claim it will make me look sophisticated when I met the new people. Two others, who were not a blur, stood against the crowds of wise guys were two boys, seeing them made my face burn. One paled with scars and a silent expression on his face with a mop of raven hair on his scalp, the other somewhat tanned, a smirk pasted on his face with nearly white blond hair in a messy ponytail. Neco and Ran, they both looked at me when I came forward "hey princess," "I'm not a princess," "not yet." the drama king had arrived a blur like everyone else," after this you will be a princess, one of time," corny. But I had to nod; I then went to gather the things I will bring with me. My bag 'stitches’, a necklace with a pendent attached, and then a red rose, my gift. “Everyone ready to begin," Neco went first, stepping into a tube that instantly closed him in, what seemed like frost covered the inside of the capsule making Neco evaporate. Ran went next with a grin at me he also disappeared. I stepped up and tried to relax as I was sealed in, the frost stating to creep up. Then shouts and screams started outside the capsule, monsters where pouring into the lab and slaughtering everyone in it. That’s when I was enclosed to the oblivion.
Love is back
I think a stupid cupid
Has finally hit my heart,
Because the burn that are on it
Are finally starting to hurt,
Their screaming out in pain
Saying it’s time to wait,
But yet I feel like crying
Because it feels so great,
For tonight I believe
That the impossible is here,
I have fallen in love
In less than twenty years.
