She’d found it at last

A sort of peace

When the world stood still

And she was free of her past

Alone as she was she was all that existed

There was nothing to hurt her here

And she let the pain leave her

No longer did her soul feel twisted

It was silent

She was alone

She was at peace

As the silence lulled her in...

Grace stood absolutely still, trying to hold her breath. The slightest movement could stir the fog and The Cabin Dweller would have her skin. She shivered at the thought. The Cabin Dweller walked into the clearing, just as still as Grace. It’s back was to her, the flowing white robes hiding its body and the black hair draped on its back. It tilted its head back and began to sniff the air. Grace in...

A messy room is hardly ever just that

A messy room is indicative of far more than physical disorganization

Messy closet

Messy bed

Messy hair

Messy clothes

Messy relationships

Messy love

Messy happiness

Messy thoughts

Messy head

Messy life...

Demi sighed as they buttoned up their shirt, trying not to think about how it was tight across their bust. They would just have to deal with it. They hated the way their pants caught on their wide hips. At least their hair they could clip up well enough.

Meeting with their grandparents and cousins was intimidating. A few years ago, maybe it wouldn’t have been. Things...

“Eden? Eden, wake up!” Her voice yelled at me as I came to. Her hands were gently tapping my cheeks. I groaned and pushed her hands away. I opened my eyes and propped myself up on my elbows as took in my surroundings. I was on concrete, I think. To my right was the street, and to my left a row of trees that lined the park. Before me was my best friend, her pale blonde hair falling in her face as s...

I wasn’t sure what I was supposed to feel

Most people said excited

Or happy

Or nervous

How I felt, gods, I was panicking

Honestly it was probably dangerous for me to be behind the wheel

Tears ran down my face

My vision was blurred

I felt like I had no control

I made the turns, I pressed the pedals

But was it an accident

Or on purpose

My vision felt so limited, peering out of the small narro...

Nick stared at the bonsai tree decoration that sat on the table as he blew his blonde hair out of his eye again. Well, it wasn’t exactly blonde, but it was definitely a lighter shade of brown that people often mistook for a lighter color in sunlight. The bonsai was fake. At least, he presumed it was fake. It didn’t look very real, it was too perfect for that. It leaned elegantly to one side, its r...

Its a lie they feed you

From the moment you are born

Its in the past

Whats done is done

They say you can escape your past

But thats a damn lie

Your past is a ball and chain clamped on your leg as if you are a prisoner

And in a sense you are

Youre a prisoner of your own mind

Everyday you are dragged down back into those darkest of memories

Every small insignificant detail of another person’s life ...

I love you forever

Thats what they had said

And so when he asked

She led him to bed

But the melody began to go mute

And as the colors began to fade

She held on tight as she could

Trying to save what they had made

She told him he’d get another chance

That when the time was right

When things were better

He would get the opportunity to fight

But she regretted it

She just wanted to be free

And it...

She was too much, but she was also too little

She was an overachiever who was never enough

There was a beast inside her, festering, biding its time, gaining it’s strength

And she never wanted to let it out

She wanted to hide it away, because that was what they told her to do

She’d long since learned that guaranteed love is a lie

And that earning love was a false hope

But she didn’t want love anymo...
