To put it kindly, I looked like hell. The bags under my eyes had deepened, and my untrimmed beard and dirt streaked face were a reminder of how consuming the past few nights had taken its toll on me.
All the pain, the...
"Matthew!" squeals Blair.
He tickles her side for a quick moment, just so he can see the joy in her face. He remembers the present, and swiftly pulls it out of his bag.
"What's that?" Blair questions.
"Uhh War Heads I think. I thought we could try them."
"War Heads?" she looks at the bag, uncertain of the candy.
"Just try one. For me?" he pouts.
A slow smile spreads across her face and she g...
I had cried for weeks and weeks about losing Emma. She was such a great companion and I loved her to pieces. But I was lonely now. I lived by myself and now felt like I had no protection or friendship left in my home.
So I did get another dog. A nine week old golden retriever puppy named Laney. She is the sweetest thing ever. And while it doesn’t fill the whole Emma left, it deserves makes it a li...
I want to love
More than you ever could,
But I have succumb to the thought that you are not mine.
Though you’ve filled my thoughts and heart for what feels like forever, you do not belong.

Though my heart beats in cries, I cannot love someone who holds no love for me.
It’s true, yes, I loved you so,
But I wa...

Sandra Houston checked her phone for the third time in the last five minutes. She was nervous and excited at the same time. She had just landed in New York, the city of her dreams, where she hoped to start a new life as a defense attorney. She had left behind everything she knew in Miami: her family, her friends, her old identity. She had undergone a gender reassignment surgery five months ago, af...
He would describe the feeling as a thousand chainsaws revving their engines in his arms. Then, in his legs. Any time he moved a limb, he told his family the pain was excruciating. He would try sometimes, just to see if it still happened. When he was younger, sometimes it wouldn’t happen and he would be able to do the dishes or wash himself in the bath. In his older age, though, he couldn’t lift hi...
Blood stained the once white cupboards red. Several bloodied bodies dirtied the floor. The shock caught the breath in her throat, as tears pricked at her eyes desperately trying to break the walls and flood down her face. Shock, too, stopped them. A dark figure was hunched behind the corpses. A twisted smile was visible on his face. A decision needed to be made, one that could change her life fore...
I tried to slowly breath in then out but my breath caught in my throat. Chocking back a panicked sob I stood up, trembling with every step. I slowly made my way to the front of the class room. Every eye was on me all starting all boring into my soul. I got up to the board and tried to speak but i couldn’t I couldn’t breath anymore. I was melting. I wish I would just fall through the floor. But I t...
