Putting The Pieces back Together
Hi all, this is my first official post of a book I wrote years ago! I hope you all enjoy as I was a teen using a pen and paper to express myself. So sorry for any mistakes and typos ! ******8 Time doesn't heal all. No matter how long. The seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, years...only equal up to more pain. Time never offers a cure; it gives you all it can. Time. Time to remember. Time to relive. Time to feel every little thing it couldn't erase." Ethan- "Replaying an experience is like reliving it. Every word invites a memory. Every memory invokes a feeling, an emotion. It's impossible to say which hurts more. The first time is unexpected. The second time around you think you'll be ready for it...nothing changes. Everything you felt hits you harder." ********Complete
WHERE WINTER BLOOMS
Sometimes, first love isn't a person. It's the first time someone truly sees you. Nathan sings in silence. No one knows he does. No one asks why he stopped shining. Ryan pretends he's fine. No one notices he's breaking inside. A paper plane connects them. An empty theater listens. And in the middle of the world's noise, two boys find in music a language more honest than words. But growing up hurts. Loving hurts more. And the fear of disappointing those who should protect you can be louder than any melody. This story is for those who've ever felt like they didn't belong. For those who carry invisible wounds and still dare to dream. For those who know that love doesn't always shout... sometimes, it just sings.

He wasn't the favorite. He wasn't the golden child. But he was the one who bled. When everything around him begins to crumble-family, love, and the secrets of a buried past-Ryan is forced to face a darkness he thought he'd left behind. What happens when the person they never really understood... becomes the only one who can save them? But saving them comes with a price. And some prices leave scars that even time can't heal. A story of sacrifice, forgotten memories, and a boy who was never supposed to be the hero. The boy they misunderstood. The one who laughed the loudest to hide the silence inside. The one who acted tough because no one noticed when he was gentle. The one who was always "too much"-too angry, too lost, too broken to fix. He was the black sheep. The storm in a house that only wanted sunshine. The one they blamed but never truly understood. They didn't know he cried himself to sleep at night. Didn't know he whispered "I'm sorry" to the shadows of parents he lost too young. Didn't know he carried the ache of abandonment in his bones every day. And when he finally found the truth-when he discovered who murdered them- he didn't hesitate. Not once.Complete
