Unexpressed Feelings, Undeclared Words
"I like you a lot, more than words can say. I've been talking to you everyday in hopes that you'll stay. Your smile is lovely; It has a way of brightening my day. In person, you make me so nervous, I try to avoid looking you in the eye, maybe it's because I'm very shy. Even the slightest touch from you gives me a crazy feeling inside. You've made me fall for you in a short amount of time, but, I'm okay with it because you're an amazing guy."

It's Over Now
She stood there, shaking. The reflection she saw of herself in the mirror was unrecognizable. Her face was bruised. Her hair was tangled and there were multiple lacerations on her neck. Blood was gushing everywhere, but she didn’t try to stop the bleeding.

Inappropriate and Indecisive
Chapter One I could have written a hundred pages on what he looked like, as well as his personality, described both the good and the bad sides. I have so much to say about myself, my feelings and my views of the world, about our relationship, how it was built and what it consisted of. This is a piece of what happens in one’s head when being misled, betrayed, and ignored by someone you had trusted with your heart.

She Can, He Can
So me, my Mom, and my sister were on our way home and talking about cutting beards or whatever and I brought up how stupid it was for some women to ask their partner to shave a beard they clearly love having. I didn’t mean they shouldn’t ask, but just hear me out.

Domesticity
It's a cool fall morning and the air is crisp enough to freeze the tip of your nose. It is the perfect morning, perhaps, for a jog; a nice temperature for an activity that gets your blood pumping. It is also the perfect kind of morning to, say, read a book and have a cup of coffee. Which is exactly what Felicity is doing on this cool fall morning.

The Thing About Age Difference
When I went to the club that one night in January I never imagined how much it would change my life. No matter how big a cliché it might be. I was way too drunk and a friend of mine had somehow convinced me to dance with her. But in the middle of embarrassing myself on the dancefloor, an unfamiliar girl laid a hand on my shoulder and asked about my name. I greeted her and told her. I remember her secretive smile when she whispered in my hear: "My friend over there wants to talk to you, but he is too shy to approach you." My cheeks turned pink and I felt so grateful that the dark was covering it up.

Cold Summer
He stood there at the window of the home as the sunlight that should have been warm drenched over his head and shoulders. It was late June, yet the sunlight felt cold to him, like Father Death’s hands wrapping around his throat and strangling him like some kind of madman. It was as if the world were trying to suffocate him and take him down for all he was.

Deja Vu Moment
*Sigh* If I may be frank, but I honestly cannot begin to wrap my head around this mere simple fact, that what had happened that day... changed my perspective - completely! It perplexes me in a profound way of how the body and mind coincide to have this mutual epiphany, that results in a rather strange, yet intriguing, manifestation. One that seemed to have been a tragedy, but more or less had a positive outlook in the end.
