*Darkness Wakes*
Tim Waggoner’s Darkness Wakes
Just finished another one (my 2nd, with Like Death being the 1st taste test) of Tim Waggoner’s delicious horror reads. And the verdict: it was ahhh-mazing!
Waggoner knows just how to write to keep his reader guessing, on edge, and begging for more. I don’t suggest this read to a person with a weak stomach, no knack for gore, visual stench, or if you cringe or cry at the thought of the abuse of a feline. All in all, I couldn’t put it down, so if you’re looking for a read loaded with carnage, fuck-up people, usual weapons, and a promising ending – look no further.
- He (Gerald) knew pleasure beyond pleasure, pain beyond pain, sensation so intense that it was beyond the limited capabilities of language to describe. He’d do anything to feel that touch again. Anything.
- Regret and guilt blossomed like twin poisonous flowers in his heart. (tell her now, tell her everything – before things go too far.)
- She knew what it was like to be alone, night after night, with nothing but your memories to keep you warm in bed.
Diagnosis: I’m now a through and through Waggoner fan and look forward to reading his next book…Pandora Drive.
* When I’m With You *
Thought I’d try to talk to you
Babe am I ever glad you wanted me to
It’s been two years to the day
Half the time I’ve been away
I know I’m not there enough but that’s gonna change
Cause I’m coming back
To show you that I’m keeping the promise I madeWhen I’m with you I’ll make every second count
Whenever you’re not around
When I kiss you
I still get butterflies years from now
I’ll make every second count when I’m with you
But we’ve always worked them out
Babe am I ever glad we’ve got this far now
Still I’m lying here tonight
Wishing I was by your side
Cause when I’m not there enough
Nothing feels right
So I’m coming back to show you that
I’ll love you the rest of my life
I’ll make every second count
Cause I miss you
When ever you’re not around
When I kiss you I still get butterflies years from now
I’ll make every second count
When I’m with you
Whatever it takes I’m not gonna break the promise I made
When I’m with you
I’ll make every second count
Cause I miss you
~ Faber Drive, When I’m With You (Seven Second Surgery)
* Want You! *
I’m lonely and really need some company…
I want you to show up here and surprise me…I want you to hold me in your arms and remind me how much you miss me and love me…I want you to let me kiss you for every day we’ve been apart…I want you to enjoy the moment and let me celebrate the seconds…I want you to spin me around and never let go…I want you to kiss my neck…I want you to hold my waist…I want to taste your tongue…I want to smell you familiar cologne…I want you to talk and not stop…I want to make up for any fights we’ve had and make up for lost memories over the countless months…I want you to feel me from head to toe…I want you to warm me up…I want you to go with your gut…I want you!
I want you! I want you…
and so desperately need you!
…I love you!
