I may just be a girl. No one special. Nothing compared to others. In the eyes of the universe, I am just a little speck of dust. My light may not shine very bright, and it may not be of any use, but I am me. Writing is my only escape out of this world. I cry rivers of ink and climb mountains of words. I may not write as well as others, but my writing is just a different style. They're my feelings. I really do hope you can connect to some of the work in here. Please, do not copy any of this work without informing me first. Thank you! 

"My Escape" 

I have a supply, 
In the closet near my bed, 
Of past memories, 
Hanging by a thread. 
A thread, 
Connected to my mind, 
That thread, 
Just follows me around.
I have a hole, 
In the middle of my heart, 
That hole fills up, 
When someone's torn apart. 
I have a tear, 
Accompanying my lonely eye, 
Knowing, whenever I'm alone, 
I can sit in a corner and cry. 
Even though,
These things are there, 
I still have ink, a notebook, and a pen,
To care. 
I write and write, 
To my heart's desire, 
New feelings erupt, 
By the hour. 
Writing is, 
My one escape, 
In this cruel and careless world, 
I have the power, to awake.

"A Story Without Words" 

A story told, 
In a little tune, 
A golden smile, 
And a shining tear, 
Rolling down my cheek. 

A little breeze, 
The nice sun, 
A marvelous day, 
Turned into a wet one. 

The memories dripped, 
Down on my cotton white shirt, 
Leaving stains, 
On my malicious heart. 

Your smile, 
Worth a thousand words, 
Can't cheer up 
This depressive mind. 

A storm bewildered, 
Your indecisive mind, 
Drowning me, 
In my reckless thoughts. 

A rainy day, 
A gleaming lie, 
A story not told, 
With words 
Nor sounds. 

This story is, 
But a mere thought, 
In this universe 
We share, 
Every night. 

This story is, 
A withering storm, 
Drifting off, 
In this careless soul. 

This story is, 
Not told with sounds, 
But a never ending blow, 
Of swirling emotions, 
Bottled up inside.

**WARNING**18+ AND THERE WILL BE MANY SEASONS She meets the woman of her dreams...except she was never into women...until now. Love has no boundaries and this dirty lesbian romance proves that. Meet the group, and fall in love with this world of crazy excitement. One step at a time, I walk toward her. "He kissed me, and I kissed him back. But, in my mind, it was not him I was kissing. He tried hard to sleep with me. I pushed back and said no." My hands squeeze my keys to the point that I can feel the pain in my palm, but I ignore it. Shaking my head, I scoff again, growing angry and confused at the same time. I do not know what's happening to me. "I pushed back because all I could think of was you!" I say, wanting to scream at her. "You were the only person on my mind when I was with him. I felt gross and disgusted. But when he kissed me, I saw you and it turned me on. This wave of emotions pushes through me with every press of his lips, because...I saw you in my mind." My face is growing warmer, and I have to force myself to look away. My ears feel like they are on fire. I am grateful and confused at the same time. My mind seems twisted. I do not understand what is happening to me, or why these emotions are running through me. She looks at me like I am the crazy one. Her confused look grows. She steps down the two steps and walks toward me. "You are not lying? You truly left him and came home?" "Yes! Damn it!" My tone is loud and rude. Taking a deep breath, I close my eyes. I can feel that wild lust or love or whatever the hell you want to call it. It burns madly through me the closer I get to her. "What did you do to me, Natalia? I have always been able to walk into my house. Tonight, I could not because I was scared to go to my bedroom, because all I could picture was you and me in that damn bed. I'm not supposed to be like this! This is not...damn it!"

I panickedly walked down the now empty hallway I heard some footsteps behind me I turned around to see the idiot who was NOT my GIRLFRIEND. "Don't follow me," I said loud and kept walking. But that idiot couldn't understand a hint "If you Do not stop following me I swear to the goddess I'm going to hurt you," I turned around to look at her "Look I'm sorry I didn't mean that to happen" "You didn't mean to tell the whole school that we are a couple when I have literally only ever talked to you one time?"I asked angrily. "Well yeah I did mean to do that," She answered with a frown trying to think about what to say. But I didn't give her a chance as I accidentally lifted my foot and hit her hard in between her legs. I felt something as my foot connected with her crotch but I didn't think about it As she fell on the empty hallway. Holding her hand in between her legs While saying something like Goddess and hot. I didn't listen as I walked out of the school hallway and left her there.

A Poet's Secret by ookayooh
16 parts Complete
Being in love with your best friend isn't the ideal life situation but for Zora, it's her only life situation. Secretly harboring her feelings for her best friend, Sierra, Zora pours her emotions into her journal in the form of poetry. After years of keeping her attraction for her friend at bay and trying to deny her feelings by forcing herself to love a boy who unconditionally loves her, Zora's favorite emotional outlet becomes the cause of her life falling apart as the truth finally comes out. ***** It was happening again. It was dark, sunset, I waited for her to be done with volleyball practice 'because she was my ride'. Somehow we wandered from the gym to the football field and we were sitting at the very top of the bleachers staring at each other. Her dark hair mirrored the direction of the wind, the setting sun being replaced by the brightness of her smile. We were sitting so close I could feel her warmth. It was an unusual situation. Friends don't do this. We held eye contact for a long time before I couldn't take it anymore and just closed my eyes. It wasn't real, she was just my friend. Then, I felt her tuck a strand of my curly hair behind my ear. That with the chill of the night sent shivers down my spine and a swarm of butterflies attacked my stomach. I reopened my eyes. If she didn't want me, why did she look at me that way? I held her hand and I held it for so long because I didn't know if we'd have another moment like this. We talk and laugh and she tells me I'm pretty and I ask her if she'd just noticed that and we laugh again. I realize the feelings I felt in that moment were not just the intense feelings of attraction that I felt every time I was with her. Warmth flooded to my face and if it wasn't for my dark complexion, my blush would be noticeable. I look into her dark-colored eyes and I come to the conclusion that I'm royally fucked and I'm probably also in love.

What the fuck do you want?"I asked. "Get dressed we're going out"he says. "Hell nah, I ain't going no where"I say going back to my room. All I want to do is sleep and I won't let anybody stop me. I feel a muscular hand snake around my waist pulling me out of my room. "I can't fall asleep so you can't sleep too!" He says forcefully. "I hate you!" I scream. "No you don't, you adore me" he chuckles "Keep dreaming boy" I wanted him to let go of me, not because I didn't like it but because his touch, was driving me insane. It felt great and I can't afford to fall for him, I mean look at him who wouldn't fall for that handsome face and crazy person but that was problem. I'm not his type. He turned me around and this time I was facing him, our eyes met and I couldn't deny it, it felt great to be in his arms. His eyes lowered and fell on my lips. Before I could even say my name, he kisses me. My eyes widened in shocked but I gave in and wrapped my arms around his neck, closing my eyes. God damn!his lips are soft. It was slow and gentle, his hands moved to my face as he increased the pace. My hands moved to his soft black hair. God! I've always wanted to touch it I let out a moan and he slipped his tongue in making the kiss hotter. It was the best feeling on earth. We both pulled away at the same time, panting. Damon and Scarlet, two different people brought together by fate but separated by life. Will they find each other again and just live with the memories of what that had??

Two broken souls in the midst of a crazy world. Two souls running away from their past. There was no light at the end of the tunnel. The tunnel was cracking, slowly closing in. When these two connect, as if they were set on the same path, light creeps in through the cracks, and for or a moment, the tunnel seems to have a way out, but what if it collapses before they make it? - "You saved my life." The words come out as a whisper, I've been dying to say that. I thank god every day that he came into my life when he did. "Fuck Vivian, you don't know how much I needed you." I tear up just a little as he speaks, I don't know the last time I cried happy tears. I bring my hands up to cup his cheeks, resting my forehead against his. "No matter how much I push, I don't mean it. Please don't give up on me." My words seem to relieve him in some way as I feel his shoulders relax. "Even when I'm gone, I'll be by your side, forever." He brings his hand, sticking his pinky out. "pinky promise."I wrap mine around his, placing a kiss on his lips. Warning before you read!! This is my first book! This book will contain topics of SA, eating disorders, and mature content, if any of these things may bother you in anyway, please scroll! I hope when I finish this book I can public a clean version, with a different perspective leaving out these topics, but for now, this is how i've envisioned this story to go! Enjoy -Ash🌸

One of the most painful things on earth is to lose a loved one. Whether in death or heartbreak. It's a pain different from all others. You feel every burn, every ache, your senses awaken, and greedily await a memory to sip in and then wreck your entire being. She took everything. His Light. His Heart. His Soul. It had no end. For years it went on like it would never end. But, it did. Just in passing, a normal day, a day like every other, but it was the day, his heart danced truly and his chest tighten as if a fierce wind had passed by, blending with his soul, leaving a suffocating feeling in his chest, a choking sensation in his throat, there was a pressure making it hard to breathe. ******* "My heart has heated for the human and my blood has flown for him. Every time I thought of him, my heart would ache. It would ache so much I couldn't breathe, the feeling of despair, yet sweetness... Even so, I still couldn't stop thinking about him." So...this is how it feels to love a person. "I belong to you, just as this merman belongs to the seas. Like a falling leaf belongs to its roots." "Nothing can stop me from falling into your embrace." ******* ®®
