I wrote this story for a project in ELA, however, as I have worked, it has become so much more than that. This story was a way for me to speak from the heart, and address issues that face so many people today, including domestic and emotional abuse, alcoholism, and suicide. I spoke from the heart, and tried to connect with and create characters that meant something to a reader. I used real world issues that can be overlooked, or dismissed in mainstream media. This story became a way for me to speak about issues that mean a lot to me, issues that are hard to talk about, in a way thats real and compelling. "Blinded by Tears" was a way for me to share as I followed Summer through her journey and battle with abuse, and the powerful thoughts that drive someone to extreme measures.

"I'm assuming that little speech was meant for me?" "It was meant for everyone." "But mostly me. Is it because I called her selfish earlier? Are you still hung up on that?" "I'm not hung up on anything, Gemma." "Then why would you go up there and say that?" I demand, my voice rising above a whisper. "Of all days, why would you choose today to publicly humiliate me?" "Today isn't about you, Gemma," Bowie says, catching me by surprise. "Today is about Raelyn, and the fact that we all failed her." ----------- 𝕲𝖊𝖒𝖒𝖆 𝕭𝖊𝖆𝖚𝖋𝖔𝖗𝖙's life is turned upside down the day she gets the call that her best friend, Raelyn, took her own life. No note, no explanation, just an empty bottle of pills atop a mountain of unanswered questions. As far as Gemma knew, Raelyn wasn't depressed. Why did she do this? Why did she kill herself? While searching for answers, she forms a bond with Evangeline, Raelyn's six-year-old daughter. Gemma soon learns that Raelyn didn't just leave behind a daughter, though. She also left a stack of secrets so high that Gemma fears she never knew her best friend at all. She's so desperate to find out the truth that she may get more than she bargained for. After all, you can't un-ring a bell. BOOK ONE IN THE RAE OF LIGHT SERIES. Copyright © 2019 Briana Eliza.

Look at the people around you. Are they smiling brightly? Do they have a happy family? Do you really know them? Are they perfect? Maybe they look perfect but you don't see how broken they can get. You only see the happy family and "perfect" life they have. Look a little closer and maybe you'll see. They are imperfect. We are imperfect. A collab with many writers like @JinxMiaows and others
