WRITING OBSTACLE

Write a story where an object that is inconspicuously mentioned early on is a key element of the plot towards the end of your story.

Using an object is an easy way to foreshadow an idea, but you could also try using something else like dialogue, or another character, to foreshadow your plot.

**I want to feel something—anything at all,** **From endless words to tears that fall,** **Once a river that carried my pain,** **Now silent waters, dry and plain.** **** **The hardest battles, I’ve fought to the end,** **Overcame, though it took all I could spend.** **Yet here I stand, no tears to cry,** **Numb in a world that’s passing by.** **** **Two stars above, watch over me still,** **Souls I cherish, though they feel distant, still.** **Lives I’ve lost, angels I’ve known,** **Yet no tears for them, though I’m not alone.** **** **It’s as if I’m wrapped in hollowed walls,** **A shadow that stumbles, trips, then falls.** **Each day I wake to the same gray skies,** **But no fire stirs behind these eyes.** **** **I long for the storms that raged before,** **The waves that crashed, the heart that soared.** **Now I drift in an empty sea,** **Searching for any part of me.** ****
