One thing humans can't control is time, time is endless, it does not stop, it does not slow down neither does it fast forward but somehow we always find ourselves in a never ending race against time. Time is our biggest predicament 24/7, 365 days a year we can't escape it. "Time heals all wounds" does it really? Or it just provides a way of forgetting the emotions? 
A lot can be done in the space of 17 years, for some 17 years is of no value compared to the time they've served on planet earth in-fact it's unrealistic to say anyone will really achieve much in their first 13-20 years of existence but all I've needed is 17 short years to puzzle the grueling battle we call life. We've come really far and we still have to go really far but what an adventure it's been so far.

Love from Across the Corridor by ashyeol

"What...can you please tell me what's going on. Why are you so mad?" she pleaded for answers. Damn she's good. She stood up from the couch and started walking towards me, trying to touch me. "Do you really want me away? Away from you. Like really really go?" she asked me again, acting confused. This time I see tears in her eyes threatening to roll out. I can't. I can't. Why can't she fucking tell me the truth. I literally saw what she did. Really pissed, I started shouting. "YES, I'M BLOODY SURE AIMEE. SO CAN YOU FUCKING LEAVE ME ALONE FOR NOW". Reluctantly she turned away from me, walking towards where she left her stuff earlier, sniffling. She took her things and was ready to leave me. I opened the door for her. Almost stepping out from my house, she took my shaking hand by surprise. "You know you can talk to me right. I'm always here for you. Always", she said. It only pissed me more. She stopped at the doorstep turning to look at me. But I was a jerk. Because I fucking shoved her out of my house.

Glint and Precurse by interestingy

Have you ever gotten the feeling that everything you do is for nothing? Do you feel that no matter how hard you try, the world will always move on without you, whether you like it or not? Is it difficult to keep up in this current of events everyone else calls existence? Yeah... me neither... What? Do I have to put a meaningful and insightful description of the story? This is MY story, and I can do whatever the hell I want! It's funny how people just expect me to do things for them... Oh, you still aren't satisfied? If you are spending so much time reading this meaningless book description, why haven't you already started reading it? This is the kind of thing that bothers me about readers! They want people like me to practically spoil the entire story for them before they read it! Now, what it the point in that? So, taking into consideration the previous message, if you are still dying to get a taste of what this story revolves around, I might as well tell you. You have been oh-so-patient by reading all of this jibber-jabber that it would only be disrespectful for me not to give you a little information! Well... looks like I am just a really disrespectful person.

Time Can't Heal This by Lauryn_Love

I've always hated the saying "Time heals all wounds." Maybe in most cases that may be true. In my experience with life and pain however, time has only ever bled out the wound. The scars that the wounds left behind though, are often so deep that just looking at them becomes painful to the mind. Time only heals what you let go of. Sometimes letting go and moving on just doesn't feel possible; no matter how much time you let pass you by. These poems signify what time hasn't healed for me.

I'M THE ALPHA by abbie_ms

I have only ever had one meaning in life TO KILL, but that all changed when I turned 18. I met the love of my life, without knowing that he would love me for me and save my life. * please don't steal any of my ideas or my story because this has taken me a long time to come up with this book and the ideas. If you do steal my ideas I will report you.* * this book will have coarse language so your reading at your own risk*

Not What I Expected by Ank1983

I don't just write Fan Fiction!! I wrote this story back in 2016. It was my first attempt at an original story. Despite the lack of editing, I am proud of it just because it was my own idea. ***WARNING*** This story has not been rewritten or edited at all. Despite that, I hope you all enjoy!! ***** Nicole's life was perfect, or at least she thought it was. Her husband wants out. She runs into an old love from her past and she doesn't know if it is worth fighting for her marriage or starting over.

Beneath The Skies (Book 3 of Running Series) by Wingerz17

"Everyone has scars, just not all of them can be seen" 12 months is only a short period of time to heal. A short period of time to forget everything that you've been through. "Pain changes people, it makes them trust less, over think more and shut people out" Yet, those 12 months have been the best days in a long time. Things are finally looking up. The family is all together again, everyone is happy, everyone is smiling. Until a phone call, a phone call that changes everything. "Keane...I...I need you, my Dad, he's been..."

Unmask by mona_leighsah

"You trust me, don't you?" he says with a smile, that smile. It had fooled everyone, even me at some point, and for the first time I want to scream with rage and shake the earth to the core. "Give me a hug," he says pulling me out of the chair that feels like a rock underneath me. I am as stiff as a board as his hands circle me, making me feel worse than dirt. His hands reach between my thighs and I want to plunge a knife deep through his chest. The only thing stopping me is, the knife is no where near. I pull back and I don't try to hide the anger in my eyes. I want him to see it. To know that I am coming for him. Rape is chanted repeatedly in my mind, reminding of the lies I just told and the false accusations I am throwing on innocent people. He's probably figured it out anyways, surely a Priest as high as he cannot be deceived. But none of that matters anymore because...... This is just the Beginning.

Journey Of Hearts by SomeGuyThatLikesCats

A poetry book of my journey through friendship, love, loss, personal growth, confusion, betrayal, resentment, hate, hope, light, and eventual healing. Please enjoy

Meeting Him Again by stilln0pe

Marriage. The state becoming involved in your relationships to humans. The way a Time Lord says "I love you". And then there's regeneration. When your body, mind, interests change. When apples go to yogurt to fish fingers and custard. When sharing house with someone, you get used to all their little quirks. All the small things they do. The way he runs his hand through his hair, her smile, all the seemingly inconsequential mannerisms like posture and how they sit on the sofa. All of the things you love about a person suddenly change, leaving you with a new spouse. It's fine, though, because you have the doubt. Do they still love me? Do I still love them? It is, after all, a completely different guy from the one you've spent three hundred years doing DIY with. What if this one doesn't know how to hold a hammer correctly? Can you really bare to be around a person who doesn't love DIY? So, as you can imagine, regeneration causes problems.

Chances Of Truth ☑️ by zZohana3

"It's too much to remember everything and everyone, all pain and hurt is killing me day by day little by little. I wish I could remove all the pain and move on in my life. I wish I could find an eraser or Better a delete button, so that I could start from beginning, without any misery or pain." ......................................................................................... "Hey Eva, you know you can trust me, right? " He asked me again cupping my cheeks, I can't let him continue this. It had to stop now or it would be too late. I can't risk everyone's life specially his. If hurting him means, him being alive then I would do it without thinking. Again and again. "Eva are you even listening to me?" Noah asked moving his face closer. From this close I can even see the scar which he told me about, its just below the border line of his hair, it can be easily conceal but from this close its more real. His eyes, they are magical. I would love to look at them all the time and never get tired of looking at in them. No, I cannot do this to him, I can't be selfish, I have to do something this time. "No" I answer and walked away from him. .............................................................
