My ears are ringing

The village is singing

A toon that’s all about you

When you appear from your mirror

A pin could drop

Snake’s sliver in silence

Inescapable noise

Their words can be like swords

Crickets chirping

Drama kings and queens thrusting on your blood

The looks and judgement cut like a knife

The masses can be nasty towards other human life

But my dear,

Don’t let dim your shine...

It starts with whispers, but those quickly escalate. This is Rebecca; she’s everybody’s nobody. Straight-B student, friendly, pretty in a homely way and has lots of friends; not popular enough to be the queen bee, not unpopular enough to be an outcast. She’s simply just there. No one hates her, but then again, no one’s falling head over heels for her.

Until the rumour begins. It starts with littl...

Another rumour

Another day

All time I have to put up with this

I wish I could just escape and go away!

Be quiet please

Shhhh

Shut up I eventually shout

Shhhh

Rumour rumour rumour

Please go away

Stop nagging me

Away away away

It finally dies down

Don’t lose hope

Hooray hooray

I think you will have to ‘GRIN AND BEAR IT!’ I think you will cope!!!!...

She said this,

He said that.

I heard it from…

You didn’t hear it from me but…

Did you hear about…?

Rumors.

Never true

But somehow always true.

They’re exaggerated

And grow like a

Never ending vine.

It’s hard to tell

How it started,

But rumours

Are nothing

And know nothing

About me

Or you....

_(It all started with a rumor…)_

“Aren’t you Tuna?” Sara asked hastily, staring me up and down with her watery blue eyes. I couldn’t hide my confusion.

“What?” I asked. We had been walking to our bus, and I stopped walking and turned to face her.

“Everyone’s saying you put tuna on your pussy and had a cat lick it off.” Sara made her statement calmly, and completely stripped of judgement. I watched her brown hair illuminate gold...

They must think I’m deaf.

I sigh, adjusting the collar of my mahogany turtleneck sweater as I stroll through the hallowed halls of Saint Winston’s College. Tossing my hickory-colored hair over my shoulder, I glance at my phone, feigning indifference to the stares that follow me. A clique of girls leans against their lockers, snickering loudly enough to ensure I hear.

“Looks like they’ll let anyo...

Once there was an old woman who lived in a small cottage on the outskirts of a small town called Frostsville. The woman was well-liked and well-known for she made Christmas miracles and granted wishes.

The woman loved to grant wishes but she hated all of the attention it brought her. One year at Thanksgiving she made a vow to not grant a Christmas wish that year. Rumors spread amongst the townsp...

Hello to all of my followers. This is not going to follow the prompt. As you may have guessed by the title, this is an announcement about my new writing status. As you may know, a lot of my writings take place around Christmas. I’m informing you now that any writing between November 1st and New Year's will be Christmas-themed or related. Please do give me feedback on it.

I’d also like it to be pu...

I wonder how rumors are spread.

Does it start as a bad assumption?

Does it start as a joke?

Yeah, right.

It’s not a joke.

I didn’t mean to hurt her, either.

It’s not _my_ fault Ally Freedman’s a sensitive snob.

Well, I guess she’s Ally Rose now.

I didn’t even say she cheated.

I said the word, _unfaithful_, and left up for interpretation.

She’s the one who lied to _me_.

So all I did was...
