So when the tasks and trials,
They seem to get you down.
And all your friends and loved ones,
Are nowhere to be found.
Remember there's a friend named Jesus,
Who will wipe those tears away.
And if your heart is broken,
Just life your hands and say
"I KNOW THAT I CAN MAKE IT. I KNOW THAT I CAN STAND. NO MATTER WHAT MAY COME MY WAY. MY LIFE IS IN YOUR HANDS"

The Fifth Rule
If you asked anyone, they'd say my brother and I were close the kind of siblings who knew each other's moods before a word was even spoken. We weren't perfect, but we had our system. Five rules. That's how we survived growing up together. Rule 1: Never lie to each other. Rule 2: Always have each other's backs. Rule 3: Ask before borrowing anything. Rule 4: Don't embarrass each other in front of friends. Rule 5: Never.... ever....date each other's best friend. And for the longest time, those rules worked. They kept us balanced. Until he came along. Ethan. My brother's best friend. The boy with the calm eyes and the smile that could turn a bad day around. He'd been around for years, but I'd never really seen him. Not like this. I don't know when things changed. Maybe it was the way he started listening when I talked, or how he laughed a little differently when it was just us. Maybe it was the way my heart forgot all five rules whenever he looked at me. My name's Elena, by the way. I'm the one who was supposed to know better ... the one who swore she'd never cross that line. But the thing about rules is... they only work until something OR someone makes you want to break them. And the night everything changed, it wasn't supposed to mean anything. Just a conversation. Just a moment. Except now, I can't stop thinking about it. About him. About the one rule I can't seem to keep. My brother doesn't know. Not yet. But when he does... everything will change.Complete
Putting The Pieces back Together
Hi all, this is my first official post of a book I wrote years ago! I hope you all enjoy as I was a teen using a pen and paper to express myself. So sorry for any mistakes and typos ! ******8 Time doesn't heal all. No matter how long. The seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, years...only equal up to more pain. Time never offers a cure; it gives you all it can. Time. Time to remember. Time to relive. Time to feel every little thing it couldn't erase." Ethan- "Replaying an experience is like reliving it. Every word invites a memory. Every memory invokes a feeling, an emotion. It's impossible to say which hurts more. The first time is unexpected. The second time around you think you'll be ready for it...nothing changes. Everything you felt hits you harder." ********Complete

"I don't know. Numb I guess. It's like I was expecting it, but at the same time I wasn't. I don't know why but I've always dreamed about something bad happening to me just to see what good comes out of it. It's weird I guess", she explains. "You know your going to have to break sooner or later", Nyjah says. Jupiter nodded. She hates when she breaks. She loses a lot of people in her life when the monster comes out. Everyone gets scared and runs away. Afraid to look back, so they move on with their lives. "Your not gonna leave are you", Jupiter asks. She asks Nyjah this all the time. She always wondered if she was too much for him to handle. That one day when she breaks, she's going to break him. "Never", he says lacing their fingers together.

Three Letters, Painful Meaning: BYE. [COMPLETED ✔]
[COMPLETED] Note: under editing! Love, memories, and pain. Those three words sometimes are the meaning of a relationship. The love you have for each other.

In this world full of battles, Love is the most powerful weapon. But what if love makes you the weakest person on the battlefield, will you still fight? Will you continue? What if the one that you love left you in a world full of struggles and battles? Can you still face the battlefield and move forward? Can you still fight, without love?
