I know he didn’t like me like that , it was “nothing serious”, he didn’t want me to see anyone else but he didn’t want me either.

I was just being used for sex , but I was in love with him.

He invited me over , Netflix and chill as per usual. I needed to tell him how I felt. We were cuddling on the bed and I looked into those deep brown eyes of his and I just felt it.

“I love you”.

Silence.

“What?...

When I was younger, I was a child actress , always had the paparazzi surrounding the house , award shows , private schools for celebrities, high profile friends; now it’s all gone. The fame didn’t follow me into adulthood. However, it’s served me a new kind of freedom that I didn’t have as a child; I can simply walk around a supermarket without being recognised and stopped for autographs and selfi...

Every person is born

Every person dies

Every person is scorn

Every person cries

Everyone lives the same life

Just in a different skin

They may have a wife

They may have kin

Nobody is immortal

It’s a common fact

Everyone goes through the portal

Nobody stays in tact

Heaven may be on its way

Hell may be on its way

We are just keeping god at bay.

At least for now ...

The favourite child has never been me. I’ve been the middle child mistreated and forgotten. I believe my younger sister is the favourite , she has much less rules and restrictions on life than I did at her age, allowed to the park on her own when I was humiliated in front of my friends for doing so, gets the most expensive clothes and shoes. My older sister is on par for the favourite, she’s defin...

I found the way he spoke to me magical , he put me under his spell , that’s why you should never get romantically involved with a wizard; he is more powerful than I.

Anything he says to me makes me laugh and smile and even if he does me wrong he makes me come back to him. I hate that about him.

I want to get away.

He teleports me straight back to his bedroom and feeds me his love potion so I won...

The announcement came through and spread through the departure lounge , 09:53 flight to Shanghai is now boarding. I couldn’t bear to leave her. I needed her.

Her glistening blue eyes stared into mine, I knew she didn’t want me to leave either. However she needed to go back to her family in Rio de Janeiro.

I took her number in hopes that we could stay in contact after we part ways.

I took her in ...

Every day I look in the mirror as I wake up , most days the same. I don’t like the way I look. Some days worse than others.

Struggled with my weight from being a child , I use food in difficult situations to suppress my emotions and in these times I gain weight and hate myself more.

It’s like a monster develops before my eyes as I pick out every roll and dimple in my skin I get uglier and uglier ...

I move through the cracks without a trace

Nobody can see my face

I’m like a ghost of society

Like a house of without propriety

I can tread through life without a care

Everyone acts like I’m not there

I can get away with practically anything

So it doesn’t matter who my phone rings ...

I enter the tunnel of white light as I fall from my death bed in the general hospital.

I thought I had lived a good life , did a lot of charity work , raised 3 kind and intelligent kids, looked after my mother that was dying of leukaemia for 2 years and I’d reached the tender age of 87 before contracting heart failure and ending up where I am today.

I expected I’d end up in heaven as I was a catho...

Love is the lie that keeps us alive

It wraps us in hope and warmth

We don’t like to be deprived

Love is a farce

Never a true word spoken

We are all chewed up and spat out

Over and over

But we are addicted to the feeling

So we continue moreover...
