Under the Moonlight
This is my first ever serious attempt at creative writing. I wanted to write about the struggles of being a first generation American and the experiences of growing up with immigrant parents. However, I wanted to offer a more hopeful outlook for the parent-child relationship dynamics as one moves into adulthood. I know that a lot of people won't necessary identify with this premise, but I hope that you will still be able to enjoy it nonetheless. Criticism is welcome, but just remember there is a person on the other side of the screen :)Complete
Chasing Lyric.
I grew up in a rough neighborhood. Bronx, New York to be exact. There was always police sirens and ambulances throughout the night, not even the day was safe. Drug dealers, pimps, and prostitutes everywhere you looked. That's why I had to go. My one goal was to get me, mama, and Nichole out of the hood, to graduate and become somebody. To accomplish my dreams and become who I want to be. A singer, that's what I want to be. I believe I was born to be a singer and heal the world through music. We all who live in the ghetto, have dreams to get out of there. I'm just glad I actually made it out alive, and with the people I love the most. ©Copyright SincerelyBee 2013-2014 All Rights Reserved.Complete
From France to America: a Journey of Strength
Hi, my name is Melissa. I've never considered myself a strong person, but I didn't realize that at the time. I always struggled to keep a job, never really understanding why happiness seemed so elusive. I thought I was content, unaware that I was, in fact, struggling. I know what you might be thinking, but please, keep reading. Something happened to me during my first year of working at 16 that changed my life forever. It hurt me in ways I couldn't fully comprehend, and while that pain has lessened over time, it shaped the person I've become-someone stronger than I ever imagined I could be. What I thought would destroy me instead pushed me to move to another country, a place where I barely knew the language. At just 24 years old, despite my parents' concerns and their insistence that I shouldn't go alone, I embarked on this journey by myself. Up until then, I had often hidden behind my parents, relying on them to face the world for me. But the events of my past forced me to confront life head-on. I didn't realize it at the time, but I was hiding from the world, keeping my head down, and avoiding the challenges that came my way. But now, I'm ready to share my story, lift my head, and face the world with courage. It's been a journey full of unexpected twists, and I promise you-it's going to get interesting.Complete
