Submitted by Alana Topakian
All she ever wanted was that side-splitting, life-changing, end-of-the-world type of love. Yet, as she sat alone on her bathroom floor, she realised her world was ending, just not in the way she’d hoped.

All I ever wanted was love. Mama and Papa never really loved eachother only tolerated one another . They only acted friendly in front of grandma. But I think they just wanted different things, cause I have seen real love, Like the way God loves us all and how angelina and Mikey made out in the stairwell of the old cafe. You see I think of love differently than some people some people associate lov...
I wanted beauty
and romantic gestures
I wanted warm hands and times where you would look into my eyes and see me
my soul
I wanted romance comparable to the greats
Romeo and Juliet
Helen and Paris
I wanted love that would kill me if i didn’t get more
I wanted it to be
exhilarating
breath taking
heart stopping
And I guess I got it
But laying in a pool of my own blood
staring into you...
My love was side-splitting, because my heart ripped. It was life-changing, because I would never truly live again. It was world ending, because my world was ending. He was my world, and he had ended.
The cold bathroom tiles indented themselves into my the legs, but wherever i moved they just got colder. But I couldn’t bear their cold, because it reminded me of his cold. It reminded me of all those...
I thought she was there
just like thin air
the things i thought
were really not
running from me
like the bark of a tree
falling off
stung like a bee
trust broken
like whipped cake batter
heart ripped
like plastic token's I shattered
well I thought I did
but i will be put together again
just like last time
but what if this is different
what if I'm reaching out forever
hurt forever
broken f...
People like me struggle to open up. Whether you were always told you weren’t good enough, you were being dramatic and it really wasn’t that bad. Be it that everything would be better here if you just sat down, didn’t speak or cry. Accepted that although you are just a little human who wants to explore, you sometimes make a mess and always needs to rely on someone. You’re an inconvenience to the li...
Fragmented memories a she sat slumped in despair over a life forgotten in the hope it would be better
Toxic positivity they say is delusional positivity where we never give up and accept the negative facts of change. Without accepting the negative we can not act postively.
There is always a silver lining never give up keep fighting but the phone call never comes hes not comming back to love cannot...
At thirty three, I sit in mourning
I am mourning a decade.
The time I gave Him.
To Him.
Him.
Grieving how the time I spent
flooded the gates of my being.
How it tore the doors off their hinges
Battered the shingles until they started to leak
Shattered the glass leaving shards in my path.
Time I spent sweeping up.
Hiding them from the world.
The secret I shared with myself.
Alone. But with Him...

Sitting on the cold tile, her legs criss-crossed beside the toilet bowl. Tears trace down her flamed cheeks, the fever just now setting in. She’d vomited twice and dry heaved once. Her toes were cold stubs, while her hands were earthquakes on the end of her arms. Her heartbeat wa...
