If you're life was turned upside down what would you do. A lot can happen in a split second. A split second and a child is conceived. A split second and a child is born. A Split second and you've lost your job. A split second and everyone you love is gone. Not dead gone, but gone nonetheless.
You always hear in the news about how someone was stabbed, shot, raped, or they simply just disappeared. You never think that person will be you just because you live and ordinary life. You're not close to where it usually happens. Or simply because it's just the unexpected.
I was like you once. My life was perfectly ordinary. Until I disappeared.

Within Reach
~One more step, was all it would take. To end it all. And here I was, about to take it.~ But what can you do when death doesn't want you dead? When life won't let you go? When the one person you truly live for is someone who your entire being screams at you to run from. When the world tips you upside down and leaves you there to hang. When the person you surround your self with is someone you should only ever meet once. When everything in your past messes with your future. Because Life was never meant to be this way. Not like this. For me, Living became a much harder thing to do, as soon as I found my reason for it. For something I'd always begged for, wants me too. But not how I would have ever deemed possible. It's not what I expected. For I'd never have imagined how close within my reach death really was.Complete

Through The Dark (Liam Payne Fanfic)
What would you do if your whole world was turned upside down? You're 17 years older, and the parents that you thought meant the world to you, left without any explanation? What would you do if your abusive boyfriend made it his goal to get revenge after you sent him to prison for assault? What would you do if your Uncle secretly made a deal with One Direction to kidnap you and keep you for 6 months? I never had those kind of thoughts/questions race through my mind until the day of my high school graduation. Most would assume it's all fun and games, but living with 5 boys has its hardships and even it's tears. I looked deep into the eyes of my protector and sighed. "I promise I will protect you and keep you safe. No one will ever hurt you again." he said and stroked my cheek.Complete

Evolution
There are a lot of things you don't really think about until they happen to you. Take rape, for instance. I always thought, "That won't happen to me. I have a boyfriend. I trust him. He would never take advantage of me like that..." I couldn't have been more wrong. Love in this day and age is often confused for manipulation and abuse. The warning signs are here. The things we say will tell us everything that is wrong. You are worth more than what you think you are. It's not your fault. If they tell you otherwise, get out. Burn the bridge. Always remember someone is waiting for you to walk into their life. Someone needs you. Someone loves you. Getting away from all of the wrong people and finding the right ones could save you. I can promise you right now that it saved me. These are the journal entries and selected poems from my first experience of love that left a unpleasant taste in my mouth- quite literally. I am putting this out for the whole world to see because I hope everyone will learn from my experience. People can see. We have no excuses to continue living our lives in ignorance. ...WARNING...
