My mind

turns against me

even in the simplest situations

Every thought, a contradiction

Every interaction, overthought

My brain doesn’t like me very much

tries to hurt me at every turn

tripping me up in every way

i don’t like my brain either so i guess it’s fine

at this point it can’t even betray me

it was never on my side

just for the streak so i am aware this low key sucks 😭...

The precint was Adam’s favorite place. He loved the smell of coffee wafting through the halls, the dingy windows that seemed to never be cleaned, and the sound of his shoes on the gritty concrete floors. This morning was an especially good one: he was meeting with his colleague Detective Roberts to face a criminal he had brought in as part of a gang infiltration project. He had been a drug dealer ...

There’s bodies covering the cliffs around me. Perhaps throwing myself off is my only option. I’m sure the waves would catch me. They would treat me kinder than my pursuers.

“Give up now or face death! We have you surrounded. Your men lie dead. It’s either jump or submit yourself for trial by the king.” A soldier on horseback proclaims.

“Over my dead body!” I shout back in retaliation. I practi...

"Do you have to do that?'

I looked up quickly from my book, forgetting to hold my place on the page.

'What?' I say, in confusion. I slide my glasses back up.

'Read, duh. Why do you have to be such a nerd?' my brother taunts.

I look around me - here I am curled up on the couch in my favourite reading position to the far right of the lounge room, while the family in sitting all to my left of me ...

Liam slowly approached Aaron from behind before placing his hands on his shoulders.

Aaron jumped and spun around. Liam had a huge smile.

"What's up, buddy?" He asked.

Aaron sighed. "Well, for one, you just scared the shit out of me. And two, I'm nowhere closer to getting Lily to like me."

Liam frowned. "Sorry, dude. I'm sure she'll come around. Just give it a few days."

"Thanks, Liam. You've ...

This is just a Prelude of what's to come. Enjoy!💚

"There you are. Now, update me." a man said.

The other puts his hands on the table."Those guys I'm with are so nieve. We're right under their noses and they have no idea."

"Good. I assume we're ready to make the next plan?" the man asked.

The other nodded. "More than ready."

"Right. Here's what you'll do. I need you to guide them here. By wha...

People wonder why my pillow is wet and damp. People wonder why I just keep my mouth shut. People wonder why I seem depressed. People wonder this and that and blame and judge yet they have no clue about anything. They get so blindsided by the outside of me yet they don’t care about the inside of me. They care about the tears but they don’t care about the reason for them. They care enough to ask the...

I brought my face closer to Oren’s. His jaw was tight. His big, beautiful brown eyes were glowing. His crooked smile drew me closer. I focused down into his lips then back to his eyes. He cupped my face gently and my lips found his. Our lips molded together. My hand traced up his neck and into his mess of curls. He wrapped his hands around my waist and pulled me on top of him. I gasped for more ai...

She’s screaming

At me

I don’t know why

I didn’t do anything

“Your a traitor!

You hear me!?!

Traitor!”

A traitor?

Me?

What is she talking about

It’s my turn to talk

“What do you mean?

I’m not a traitor

I was never on your side!”

Her face is blank now

Did I say something wrong

“You

Weren’t on my side?”

Why is this confusing to her?!

Obviously I wasn’t on her side

“No

I never was

Because you...

“How dare you! I thought we would be better than this!”

“I think we both knew this was coming!”

“You’re a traitor! I can’t believe I trusted you!”

“I’m not a traitor. I was never on your side.”

The two sisters continued to fight about why they were watching Avatar the last Airbender for the millionth time....
