When we are born we find that there is something missing in our lives.
This is the metaphoric exploration of the shortness of highschool romance, even if we know it is short, it is that fleeting moment that lasts forever.
The beauty in it is the knowledge that is we die, which is what it means to live. Empty, until we find that one light of a firefly. Knowing that things will end it does not matter because it is the knowledge that that highschool love is the one whom we want to be with above all other if it be just for a moment. Even if it will be painful, even if they are young and knowing that there time together is short it is the memory that lasts.

A Lovely Life
Journey with me back in time as I rewrite the first Journal I kept from when I was in high school, and see that maybe even with how horrible life is most of the times, there are little things spread throughout that make life worth living. My high school experience was full of drama, tears, laughter, and most of all constant search of love, and approval of the people around me. I can't always get what I want in this world. Life is a beautiful mess. It's not perfect, and filled with a lot of disappointments, and heartbreak. There are moments when it all feels too much, but there's not much we can do other than go with the flow of things.Complete

The Unbreakable Thread Of LOVE
What is Love? Is it merely a fleeting emotion, or could True Love truly last forever? What of the elusive Thread of Love-is it strong enough to endure the trials of time, or can it snap under the weight of despair? And what of love at first sight? Is it a genuine phenomenon, or simply a figment of our imagination? Picture this: a Girl meets a Boy for the first time, and in that moment, they discover feelings that ignite something deep within them-something they never knew existed. What is this sensation that takes hold of their hearts? But how did they come to meet? Ah, that is where the story unfolds. They encounter each other during a practice-a practice that seems mundane at first but holds the potential for something extraordinary. What kind of practice, you ask? That's for you to discover later, as revealing too much now would spoil the thrill of the journey ahead. Yet, let's not ignore the shadows that linger over the Girl. Before this moment, she was shrouded in darkness, carrying a burden that weighed heavily on her heart. Why does she hurt so deeply? Trust me, you'll come to understand her pain-and perhaps, you'll find that in the depths of their shared experiences, they may forge an unbreakable bond that even the harshest trials cannot sever. The tale is just beginning. Stay tuned, for the true essence of their story lies ahead, waiting to be unraveled.Complete
Walking Into Black
Don't fear death. It does nothing for you. Death is at every turn; the challenge is if you choose to accept it or not. Don't fear pain. Pain is how you learn. Pain is the side-effect of life. If you live life fearing getting hurt...can you truly live life fully? I've felt pain. I've accepted death. I've lived, I've learned, I've drowned a few times. If all I have to show for it is small bundles of letters and words...so be it. That's more than I could have ever hoped for. Everything that means anything to me are just words. You can put anything into words. Anything and everything. You can put death into words. You can put pain into words. You can put fear into words. And I have. And you can read them, if you want. You can learn from them; learn to stop fearing, learn to stop living in the future, behind your mask. But only if you care enough to listen. I speak loud and clear, yet nobody can hear me. I am not hidden, yet nobody can find me. If they even try.Complete
