Who would’ve thought someone as young as I am could fall in love. That’s right, fall in love. Since my freshman year of Highschool I’d see him, Tyler. Tall and handsome, dark hair, brown eyes, great style, what more could I ask for. Me being the young insecure girl I was, I couldn’t talk to him. We didn’t have any classes togehter which made passing period my favroite part of the day. I’d always l...

I was young. That’s all it was I think. I wasn’t ill or mentally out of it or just simply weird. I was young and when you’re young, things feel intense. I’m sure you all remember that intense feeling of anger and jealousy you felt as a kid, seeing your sibling getting ice cream while you didn’t. I’m sure you all remember that intense sense of injustice that you felt was done to you in that moment....

If he wasn’t going to love me, he wasn’t going to love anyone. I walked up to his door and glanced at the time on my phone, 11:37 at night. I knocked on the door three times and waited with a smile on my face for him to open the door. When he finally awoke and came downstairs he opened the door and there was shock on his face, “Emily? What are you doing here? We broke up, remember?” He tried to cl...

“If he wasn’t going to love me, he wasn’t going to love anyone” I opened my car door to my old civic and slid in. The drive from Washington to Nebraska was such a tiring drive, however ever since the letter arrived on my doorstep, the hunger to get revenge was more motivation than I needed. Driving past the familiar town sign plastered on the side of the road gave me such a anxious feeling. “Welco...

If she wasn't going to love me

She wasn't going to love anyone.

It's not a threat, it is an observation

If all these years of "us" are nothing, like the rest

There is no point in trying something different

She'll never ask about how day is going

She'll never be here when you need her most

And even if you try to speak your problems

She'll brush it off, it's something off her course

Just let her b...

I bought him flowers again. Brought them to his work. He told me he was too busy to see me, in a meeting or something like that, and wouldn’t come out to get them. So I left the at the counter with a nice enough receptionist. But when I left, I sensed that he was already out of that “meeting”. When he came home, I had to ask him if he liked the flowers. He said yes and didn’t even thank me. He did...

Why did she have to let go of me. We said we’d be “together forever”. Sarah meant the world to me. Years of my life were spent with her, to me, she was my soul mate. She must’ve felt otherwise. Thats too bad— I saw a future with her. Now she won’t have one. If she wasn’t going to love me, she wasn’t going to love anyone....

“If he wasn’t gonna love me, he wasn’t gonna love anyone,” Anger growls like a wild fire.

“What!?” Fear stands.

“I’m sure there’s an explanation,” Hope smiles and hides a sickly cough as she helps Fear sit back down.

Happiness is laying on her death bed, barely breathing, her eyes are closed, her hands folded nicely across her stomach.

“There is no explanation,” Anxiety jitters, standing and p...

It didn't need to be this way. The morning had been normal. I woke up with the smell of eggs filling my nose. He made them just how I like them, over easy with greens, toast, and just a bit of hot sauce. If he had told me it was a secret apology before I wouldn't have touched it. Even now the knowledge of food he made sitting in my stomach disgusts me.

But it doesn't. It wasn't his fault that I s...

If she wasn’t going to love me, she wasn’t going to love anyone.

I thought about her weak points— her damaged hair, her rough hands, the dry patches of skin on her fading cheek. I thought about how she’d hidden herself for so long that showing herself seemed like a battle cry— both exciting to see and also a little vulgar. I thought about her sea lion laugh, the way her light colored shirts alwa...
