well I go now to hang and die
well I go now time to say goodbye
oh lay me down at dawn by the Willow

well I go now to hang and die
well I go now time to say goodbye
oh lay me down at dawn by the Willow
please lay my body to be at peaceAll Rights Reserved

Behind The Silver Lining by Mintiezzz

[FINISHED] ____________________________________ Whenever a bad thing occurs, someone would always say "Look at the bright side!" or "Look at the silver lining!" They however, don't know that there isn't always hope in despair. If there is light, there is a shadow after all. As I like to say "Don't waste time. There may be no tomorrow". ____________________________________ William Adams, just about like any other normal person in this world. Though, what makes him stand out is that he is somewhat different, alluring even. But what does make him stand out? This person had a wish just like any other person his age after all... Being in love with another person that will also love them back. And did he find someone like that? Yes, he did. And maybe she did as well. Quite a love-struck couple those two were. If you saw them, you'd think they would have already married... Though, taken from the tragic tales of high school love... There is a reason it's called first love only. It is the first, but not the last. They split apart. He was 16 at the time. He couldn't eat properly for days. Cried endlessly for someone he lost. Though what was he crying for? She did not die after all... Ẃ̴̱̝̟͒́̊̽̔͛̐̒̀̐̈́͌̾ȩ̶̨̗̫͈͈͓̮͕́̓̌͊͗̑͒̐i̸͎̰̟̳̰̪͚͕̪̮̯̫͇̎̈́̈̎͜r̷̡̠͚̳̮͕̭̪̬͉̥̈́͌̍̍̆̅̌͂̌̎͛̚͜ͅḑ̸̱͕͒̓̐. And as in all things of life, everything is not permanent. Nothing stays still. Time is linear, It will always move forwards. He just about turned 18. Studying in college, Met someone new, and has a supportive friend... It seems he has reached the "Silver Lining" in his story. Unbeknownst to him though, He is yet to see it.

One night was all it took: Story one by brandon61386

Lacey Martin has built her life around the familiarity of the local bar she manages...a home for her. Independent, headstrong, and content, she keeps her heart tucked away, aside from a few one-night stands. She stays around her close-knit crew, a family of regulars and friends. Her normal routine, however, is shattered by one night that changes everything. When an old friend returns to town, Derek, with a group of friends, everything shifts dramatically in Lacey's world. Among his friends is Natalia, Derek's ex and a woman who will date men or women but finds herself drawn to Lacey. In one evening, both women are caught in an unexpected and powerful connection. This sparks an emotional and intense sensual escapade that forces Lacey to confront her feelings she didn't know existed. As the aftershocks of the intimate encounter ripple into the following days, Lacey finds herself torn between her known life and the magnetic allure of a new, uncharted love. The intense bond with Natalia challenges everything Lacey once believed about herself, including her stance on relationships and her guarded view on love, forcing her to check boxes she's never known. For Natalia, the collision of her past, connected to the fame, fortune, and work she's put in, it's time for her to confront future possibilities. As old wounds and unresolved histories stir within their friend groups, loyalties are tested, and the support network of the bar becomes both a sanctuary and a mirror reflecting the complexities of love, desire, and self-acceptance. "One Night Was All It Took" isn't just romance...it's an exploration of identity, the courage to defy preconceived limits, and that life can change in an instant. Witness the transformative power of one chance meeting that upends expectations and challenges the heart to live more fully and fearlessly. Every moment builds toward a future where love is less about definition, and instead of what we desire. And this is just book one. There are seven.

Angel of Mercy by Eleabear

I was eight when I first saw a man executed. Nine when I saw the tenth. Ten when I stopped counting. Before each of these men died I dressed their wounds, bought their food, gave them a smile when they expected a frown. I was their hope, the thing that allowed them to cling to life. Then I sent them to their death. It is my job, my duty. I learnt it from my mother and she from hers. I will teach it to mine and she to hers. I am the Angle of Mercy.

Can You Remember? (Sequel to Can You Keep A Secret?) by fleetwoodmacca

"I love you," Johnny murmured, clutching my wrist to the point I could not pull away no matter how much I tried. "Stop it," I snapped, "Stop saying that!" "But I do, I love you, I want you, I need you to remember," He was pleading now. "Stop, quit pretending-" "There is no pretending," Johnny said with absolute clarity. "I love you and I will love you until the day I die. You don't remember now, but you used to love me too Rosey. And I will love you until you love me again, even after I die, and if there is a life after this I will love you then, too." I stared at him as he poured his heart out; he was moving away, for once he wasn't trying to get me to love him. I was doing it myself. "Will you ever give up on this?" I asked. Johnny shrugged, "Someday, I suppose I'll give up, and sit in a rocking chair. But I'll probably be rocking fast, because I don't know what I'll do without you." ----------- Rosemarie Curtis' story has seemed to come to an end. Everything is lost. Nobody can forget. Nothing is the same. Now the gang seems to have to wrestle the past, rebuild on the ruins inside them. But sometimes life has a twisted way of bringing back something you've lost. For Rosemarie's story is just beginning. But there was no way the gang could scrape the earth clean, and keep thinking they could start again. Because even though Rosemarie is alive, her memories of the past are gone. Her mind had left them; she has now gone wild and wary. She remembers no feeling, no hurt, and no loving. Johnny must cope with losing his only love, while her thoughts swim between them, hidden under rocks, disappearing in weeds, and he fishes for them, dangling his own memories like bait and lures. But how can you love someone you don't remember loving? How can you remember something you don't want to remember? And how can the gang hold together when everything has fallen apart?

Alexandria's Revenge by BatmanXTacos

I was suppose to have been dead according to my headstone. As you can see though, that's not the case at all. I was murdered by an insane mad man, or werewolf if you want to be a prick. I don't want love or family, or anything of the sorts. Every breath I take, every moment that I'm walking this earth, every time I shoot down a worthless dog, is so I can come that much closer to killing him. I'm Alex and this my mission, my vendetta
