We all know the feeling of anger and depression. We all know what sadness is. But do we know what it feels like to have walls built up so high and strong and scars on arms that we don't feel anything at all? Or that we feel unwanted, like nobodies notices us and when they do it's to break you down and hurt you? This is how Zilla Ellis feels everyday and has felt for a long time.

Moments behind the mask
Walls are the foundation of buildings. They keep them tall and strong. They protect what's on the inside, from the cruelty of the outside world. Walls are hard, cold stone. Walls are safe. As my fists fly back and forth, I feel the cold stone under my knuckles. With each hit, my body cools and my face becomes harder. I feel the wall inhabit my body. I feel my muscles tensing as my fists fly quicker. Sweat beads on my forehead and my breathing picks up. I push my hands forward with as much force as I can, the echo of the impact hollering around me. I continue to hit the wall and I close my eyes, trying to ignore the pain --------------------------------------------------------------------- When Noah moves to Chrysler Town High, he wants to stay quiet, observe the world around him. After before, he didn't want to go back to the limelight; he couldn't afford to.Complete

I Fell in Love with a Bad Boy
CRINGE WARNING! First book I ever wrote on here!! -- "Sometimes the person who you are willing to take a bullet for is the person behind the gun." I stood peering over the cold lifeless body that lay before my eyes. I had always thought of death the enemy, but right now, I blessed it upon the person who is now at peace. Sometimes you don't need to be the smartest, or the fastest, but you do need to be wisest. They say the blood runs deeper than water, and I believe it, because even though the people that we love can turn on us and begin to hate us, they are only human, meaning that soon they will begin to see how short life really is and how it is not to be wasted. People who seem perfect and they look like they have no floors'; they are the people who are suffering, like I was. But I found my savior in the most uncommon place. He was able to look through my mask, he saw the cracks, and tried to fix the broken girl that hid away deep inside the girl who only wanted to be seen as 'fine'. I slowly began to find comfort and safety in him, and I did the same to him. We were two broken people becoming whole. Someone once said when you pass, if you can count your true friends on one hand you are beyond lucky, and I even though I did not like the person that lay before me, I know that he once had true friends, including me. I'm a 17 year old girl who has suffered more than any other, beginning to believe that 'Hope' was just another word the people throw around. Until I fell in love with a badboy.
