Her hand was a few centimetres away from my reach, swaying as though it wanted to be held by me.
So that I could hold it still.
So that I could fix the mess I so stupidly made.
My hand reached out, slowly, carefully, afraid of her reaction.
I knew it was too late as I watched her walk away, steps slow and hesitant, as though she was waiting for me to stop her.
Why would she want me to stop her? She made it clear yesterday, I thought to myself.
I watched as she opened the door, the eyes I fell in love with gazing into mine, one last time.
I watched as she left the house we first met at.
Taking my heart with her.
It was as if she came here for a sole purpose.
For a robbery.
To steal my heart.
I wondered if she'd ever give it back.

Touch me gently, kill me slowly
They said love was supposed to be soft. Gentle. Healing. But what happens when love holds a knife in one hand... and roses in the other? I didn't mean to fall for him. He didn't mean to touch me like that so carefully at first, like I was made of petals. But something changed. The petals fell. The thorns bled. And slowly it turned psychotic and obsessed. Now, his love consumes like fire. And every time he whispers my name, I remember how sweet he once was. And how dangerous he's become.Concluida
Disturb My Peace (Revising)
I adored the way love appeared on the big screen-two people destined to go to great lengths just to be together. Above all else, they bent the world to make space for their love. And yet, I never once asked why: if love is boundless, without constraint, why does it so often arrive as an interruption-demanding more than it can give? Maya says love recognizes no barriers. I take that as gratitude for those with genuine hearts and sound minds. As for me, if you must intrude, disturb my peace-not my time. I remember the first time you let my heart bleed. We were young, and I prayed to God to change your mind-but my life was just beginning. I told myself, if it's meant to be, it will find its way back to me. So I wiped my tears and continued on my way. But then I found you again. Maybe I should have turned the other way. Maybe I should have been harder, colder, wiser. But something in me stayed soft. And just maybe-you were the answer. So I stayed. And I pray that my love for you won't be the end of me.Concluida
Burning Passion {Mature 18+}
"Kassauni, there is more to life than continuous pain and suffering. I am sure you know that, and no one is asking you to go through it alone," She told me. I took a long drag from the blunt and held it in my lungs before releasing it. "Whatever yah talk 'bout sound like a fairy tale and mi nuh want yuh feel like me is a problem fi yuh fix," I stated, staring into her eyes. She frowned, deeply. "You need to talk to someone, or me. I am here for you if you need anything." Her voice came out softer than usual. "Rosalia, left that. It nuh concern yuh," I told her. She hissed her teeth and slapped the blunt out of my hand. "Mi try talk to yuh, but if yuh nah go at least try to get help then mi nuh need fi deh here. Stay by yuhself since a that yuh fucking want." She turned and started walking away. // He was abandoned by his parents. Time and time again they let him down, not realizing that each time it was draining him. He isn't the most sentimental guy, probably one of the most nonchalant and controlling people you've ever met. She was sweet and came from what people would call the perfect family. In a short time, she made him indecisive and question himself. Peeled away every armor he had shielding his insecurities. She broke him but stood by him while he rebuilt himself into a better man. The man he always wanted to be. The man he knew she deserved. _______________________________ - Mature Content (18+) - ViolenceConcluida

The Choices I've Made (By the Bay #1)
Twelve years ago, he drove away with my heart in his hands. I've moved on since then. Or so I thought. Growing up in a small town, there weren't too many options when it came to friends. But, even in a sea of a million, I'd always choose Jake Jameson. I felt safe with him. Safe with my secrets, my dreams and eventually - my heart. I thought we'd have forever together. That was a long time ago. I thought I'd forgotten those piercing blue eyes and the sound of his laugh. I tried to obliterate the memory of his touch from my mind. But, one single glance, as he stands at my door, twelve years later, and I'm suddenly transported back to a simpler time when love was easy, and my heart was whole. The problem? I'm marrying his best friend.Concluida
Safe Inside
"That is not your choice to make" She whispered, tears falling from her crystal blue eyes. "Actually, yeah it is" I mutter, pushing her away. "How many times are we going to do this Kye, how many times are we going to push each other away" She whimpers, looking up at me and turning my head to look at her. I breathe a sharp breath in, knowing this was going to kill me more than it was going to hurt her. "Until it sticks" I mutter, turning around and walking away. As soon as I feel that is far enough away from her, I turn back, looking at her. "This was my one chance at going great, and this wrecked it, it always does. I'm not going to destroy you too" I mumble before I carried on walking away.Concluida

Before she can object, I carry on. 'Maya you are beautiful beyond perfection. You are strong. You are brave. You are funny. You are sweet. You are incredible. Look at yourself,' I nod down towards the scars on her arm and she slowly glances down at them before meeting my gaze again, 'those scars are beautiful. Do you know why?' I ask her. She wipes a tear from her already tear-stricken face before she shakes her head. 'Because every time you decided to do that to yourself, you didn't go further, you didn't end your life. You decided to carry on living even when you thought you couldn't manage it. Those scars right there,' I gesture to them again, 'show the battles you won against yourself. They are your battle-scars and you shouldn't be ashamed of them. And you know what? I am so proud of you for making it to where you are today because you are a fighter and If I can see that, anyone can.'Concluida
