Burden.

A sort of short story that is a side piece to a work in progress. This short story, while having a very fictitious premise, uses its strange narration to try and eventually touch on the burdens people go through, whether it be guilt, a form of drug addiction, or simply the feelings everyone eventually tries to escape.
Feel free to comment, I'd like it if you did, but if don't that's fine by me, just be honest with whatever you say.

The Patchworks of being alive: a book of short stories
This is not one story, but many. A patchwork of voices and moments stitched together - some soft as a whisper, some sharp enough to leave a mark. Inside these pages, you'll find sadness that lingers like smoke, flashes of surreal wonder that bend reality at its edges, and quiet truths that feel almost too honest to say aloud. There are stories that wander into the strange, poems that breathe between the lines, and a handful of pieces that may stir old shadows. It is a collection for anyone who has ever felt both the weight and the wonder of being alive - the laughter that comes out sideways, the grief that hums in your bones, the beauty that arrives without warning. Weird, light, aching, honest - all of it belongs here.

A Mere Reflection
I'd like to consider each part a story in itself. While I always connected the characters with each other, something felt different in each part. It's a story about many aspects of our thoughts, some of which never have touch with reality, and some we see every day. You might not understand this unless you travel inside the characters thoughts, and yours for that matter.Complete
A Friend's Love
