Seventeen year old Rena Klein hasn't had the best life, a drug addicted mother, no father, bullies, and younger sister to look after. No one knows her struggles until one day they are brought to the light. 

Story inspired by song "Blackbird" by Nina Simone. 

Why you wanna fly, Blackbird?
You ain't ever gonna fly

No place big enough for holding
All the tears you're gonna cry
Cause your mama's name was "Lonely"
And your daddy's name was "Pain"

And they call you "Little Sorrow"
Cause you'll never love again

So why you wanna fly, Blackbird?
You ain't ever gonna fly
Why you wanna fly, Blackbird?
You ain't ever gonna fly

You ain't got no one to hold you
You ain't got no one to care
If you'd only understand, dear
Nobody wants you anywhereAll Rights Reserved

Breaking free (GxG) by worldchange97

My name is Brooklyn Robert. I'm 17, head cheerleader since my freshman year, I have fair grades and people always compliment me on my looks even though I see myself as completely ordinary. I have to admit that my life includes indeniable advantages. My mother, Laurence Robert - pronounced in French s'il vous plaît - is a worldwide renowned fashion designer, meaning that I have quite a lot of pocket money along with a huge property to my disposal. For a teenager who just gets started in life, those assets may lead one to believe that I have all the tools to be happy and successful. But I'm not. I reached the bottom so fast and so hard that I couldn't see a way out. I was trapped in a dark hole with no issue. I was so tired that my only desire was to end it. I wanted it so bad that I swallowed two bottles of sleeping pills and I let myself be taken away by that haunting darkness. But it didn't work. I'm still here, alive and ready to die. #1 sexualorientation #2 suffering #11 girlxgirl __________________________ [Explicit content.

Secrets come to light, and confessions threaten to decimate whatever is left or their relationship when Lexi decides that there is no going back. Some mistakes can not be fixed, and hearts can not be unbroken. *A small town, friends to enemies to lovers love story that paints grief through love in a whole different light.*

Sierra struggles as she navigates through her grief and all the demons from her past. With the help of the people she'd least expect will she be able to overcome her heartbreaking loss? Or will the darkness she feels break her? ------------------------- "I don't want to feel like this anymore." I sobbed "Feel like what, Sierra?" "Like I don't want to live anymore." The words slipped out of my lips before I could stop them. I had tried to push the feeling into the back of my head, hoping it would just go away. But obviously it hadn't worked because I had just told Sam my darkest thought.

Broken Biracial Baby-The streets Dey Talk by Eve_Farr

Ri'Kina couldn't tell up from down. Her Mother kicked her out when she was 15. She was sent to live with her other family. Family that she did not know. From one abusive situation to the next. Ri'Kina was forced to navigate her life. A life that she did not want. She quickly learned that being light skinned wasn't cool. Where was her acceptance? She had always felt like a outsider regardless. Unwanted and barely tolerated by both sides. What was so bad about being mixed, she often wondered. Why was that a factor in her life? Ri'Kina was a shy, obedient teen. She did not understand why she was treated like trash. Her new lease on life was to fake it until she made it. She was continuously, broken, battered and berated. Love and support were non existent. Ri'Kina's naivety lured her into the streets. And baby how they did talk!
