A bond that will last forever.
A tie that will never break.
Trust built on respect and kindness.
Hope when the world decides to shake.
Love in our darkest moments.
Acceptance when it seems no one else will.
Fights that will always be resolved in the end.
More than something as simple as blood or dna.
A spot in your head that can only be filled by them.
A safe haven in this harsh reality.
The clos...
Birthdays are more nerve racking
Than what most would consider fun.
They say I am older
But that is sure not how I feel.
“You’re so much taller,” say the relatives.
I nod,
Getting tired of how often I hear it from my parents.
Money tumbles out of cards
As I feel selfish
And read the whole thing before looking at the gift.
They say, “the money is in there right?”
And I respond with, “yes, thank y...
Before reading: This is a scene I was writing for a different book but I’ll just hope it makes enough sense...
“You time is up. Better run!” a voice yelled from behind the bushes. Why had I been so careless, especially with Gabriella and Alice with me? At this moment I hate myself and that it is me that is the reason they are after us.

I grab my sister’s hand
And pull her towards the cliff edge with me.
She nods slowly in my direction.
Then we jump.
In the moment
I wait for my mass to catch the wind
Praying with the deepest part of my soul
That it took my sister in as well.
It always did,
Yet still every time I jump
And she is at my side,
The slightest pivot down in her flight
Makes my heart do something more than just jump....
You loved me so fiercely that I burned; now, you’ll only be left with ashes.
How carefully she stood in the pile of ash,
Hoping not to disrupt its peace.
She wanted to hold her hand for a lifetime
But now she was wishing that she had more than humanity had to offer.
Her tears fell to the remains
And her eyes
We’re filled with a fire,
That you could see was close to its death....
No one expects an angel to burn down the world.
But an angel it may now not be.
An angel is only the shadow of a demon.
A shadow that represents its foregone self.
An almost extinct version of which they will do anything to forget.
For all angels have nightmares of becoming what they are destined not to become.
Of their wings turning black,
Like a heart with no soul.
Of spreading fear thr...
“Allow me to demonstrate,” she said steadily. “I have no magical abilities, I am just incredibly perceptive.” Jaylen held up the math test with a bright red A+, in which everyone else had failed.
“Come one Jaylen, there has to be some secret to it.” She leaned in slightly, “if you were cheating, you know I wouldn’t tell... if you let me in on how,” Kacey said with laugh.
“You want to know my sec...
