Unexpected Ending

Clary Barns

16 Dec, 2015 11:18 PM

The rain was dripping down the car window. Sam was tracing patterns with his finger getting lost in his thoughts. Sam is 14 years old and lives in Springfield, Oregon. He has Brown hair, Blue eyes, And a lean petite figure. He has a 7 year old brother named Jacob. Sam is usually depressed. He feels as if no one see's him, as if he is the only one who understands. He can't usually explain his feelings, so instead he takes it out in a different way... by bleeding. "We're almost home" his mother announced. His mom has Brown hair and hazel eyes. "Yay" Sam's brother giggled. "Daddy can we play base ball when we get home?" Jacob asked. "Sure, why not. Do you want to join?" he asked Sam. "No thanks dad, you know I don't like sports" Sam said. "Okay" his father sighed. Sam and his family just... [Read More]

3 Lessons of life

DavidThomas

05 Feb, 2016 04:03 AM

I don't know anymore. I thought i had at least some idea of what will happen in life. Now i am starting to come to the realization that i have no clue or idea of what will happen, or what is happening in life, in my life. The obvious is there. I know exactly what is happening with that. It's nothing new, the old, study, get a degree, get a job, and bla bla, but what i don't know anymore is the purpose of my life, the purpose of me loving anyone. the purpose of me even trying to genuinely love a girl. If i have learned anything from my love life, meaning girls i have liked or had a crush on, it is that if you ever like someone genuinely they will not like you back, they will get bored, or something will happen to make them leave you....

It's not worth it

Emily Felix

All my life I was bullied. No matter where I moved I was bullied. My first school I went to was Bakman Elementary. Life was great until I had to move in third grade. I went to Roeding Elementary. I didn't have any friends no one would talk to me I felt lonely. My mom would always encourage me to make some friends. One day I finally listened to her and decided to talk to some of my classmates. This girl named Aioni, she seemed nice so I went to say hi. She politely said hi back. I thought I made a friend. A couple of days later I met this boy named Isaac. We sat by each other in class. He was funny and cool so I hung out with him at recess. Aioni seen us at recess and started to get jealous. I didn't know she liked him.... [Read More]

How wrong he was

Dxpressed

18 Jan, 2016 07:11 PM

This is a story I had to write for an English assessment. This narrative story had to end with "how wrong he was." let me know what you guys think :) Never had she felt so depressed, used or confused. She felt a flood of emotions overwhelm her all at once but still felt so empty. After spending millions of magical moments together growing up and eventually dating, why did it have to end this way? Those special memories were fuel on the fire, causing his distrust of her to pain her benevolent, broken heart even more. Hours went by however none of this mattered to her. Nothing mattered to her anymore. Curled up in an untidy heap, she sobbed hysterically but silently. The self-inflicted lacerations wept almost as much as she did. Little did he know that it was his own so called friends who hatched such lies? Photographs... [Read More]

In another world maybe

Lola

18 Jan, 2016 05:52 PM

So.. My name is Sarah. Last year I realized that I maybe wasn't completely straight. I'm in my second year of high school here in France. There is, there was, this girl named Lola. The most beautiful perfect girl I've seen. This girl has a boyfriend that I know from a longtime ago. He's not in the same region as us so they don't see each other very often but when they do they love it. I'm very social and got to know Lola really quickly, she's smart, funny as hell, likes simple stuff and is just a really nice person overall. She isn't too social, she's got like 4 friends in the school whereas I'm pretty popular and know a lot of people. Every night we'd talk till 3 A.M and got really close really quickly. From the beginning I knew she would be special. We'd spend so much... [Read More]

The Truth

Ellie

11 Jan, 2016 11:03 PM

"Can I ask you a question?" she asked me with a soft yet sad voice. I responded with nothing in mind. She could.We were in the back of a car; going home from dance rehearsal for an event that was supposed to be held on New Year's Eve. My mind was in another place when she decided to let the tender voice spoken. "Yeah?" I said. "I'm confused. I really like a guy. But I don't dare to like him." she replied. I only turned to her when she hit the sentence about liking a guy. I asked more about it as if I really cared. I cared. But not really. "I like him but I don't dare to because of my best friend." I looked at her without any words but with the eyes of curiousness and cares. Again, as if I cared. "He badly broke her heart. And... [Read More]

My feelings are trapped...inside my soul

MHH

24 Dec, 2015 08:55 AM

I have so much that I want to express....and scream out loud from deep within my soul...of how much I adore this certain man. However, my feelings are absolutely trapped inside my soul and I have no way of letting it known....which eventually brought me to this place... If you haven't had a chance to look at my profile.... I am a professional model, who is also a grad student and a professional leader in health care field. I am just basically trying to explain that I'm not a brainless bimbo as you might have assumed to be. :-) I am a public figure with a large following, and I apologise in advanced that I will not be able to disclose my name or the name of the man who I adore.... Here is the story..,,. I somehow fell for this one man who I never had the opportunity to... [Read More]
