If the Projects could talk, they would have told her eons ago; that the road she had been headed down would lead to her own self destruction.

They would have warned her, in light whispers that the friends she called her own would have betrayed her; that the family she kept would have abandoned her, and that the man she had found herself falling in love with; would have easily proven to be her biggest downfall.

They would have told her from a young age, before she had gotten caught up in the life that no one could escape; that things don't always go according to plan, and in the projects:
There are no happy endings.

But sadly; the walls surrounding her everyday childhood had not, or could not utter a single word. Therefore; the woman had received no forewarning to the hell her life would soon become the moment she had been birthed, and instead she had found out the hard way, by simply:

Living it.

Kindred Spirits by starrldn6

*BASED IN LONDON* He was misjudged. He was heartless, although nobody knew what led to that. He kept a few people close and that was it, he promised to never let his guard down. He aimed to portray himself as the boy with no emotions, no feelings for anyone. It was better that way. She was stubborn, although she had a heart of gold. She was not prepared to lose herself to anyone. She would kill for those she loved but only held a few people dear. She had been let down before, to the point where she did not know the true meaning of happiness. She was closed, reserved. It was better that way.

Soon after graduating from high school, she received acceptance to her dream college, but it took some convincing to get her parents to allow her to travel 900 miles away to live in the city she had always envisioned. Her parents loved her and wanted her to pursue her dreams, even if it meant leaving the nest. They trusted that their daughter would make the right decisions. On her journey, Meka met many interesting people and formed lifelong friendships. She also began to explore her feelings of lust for her very sexy boss, who had transitioned from a troubled background to become a successful businessman.

"I really missed seeing your beautiful face the most," he told me while gently touching my face. Before I knew it, he pressed his lips against mine. We kissed with so much passion and pent-up desire. This feeling was different from our usual kisses; it was filled with intense longing. It felt as if we were clinging to each other for dear life, worried that if it ended, we would wake up and find it had all been a dream.

FOR TROUBLED KIDS. by Mya2tact

"Do you think we're soul mates?" She asked, lifting her head in order to lock eyes with him. It took him a moment, mustering up his answer. Thinking about how they were so alike, but so different. How they had been through similar things and had the same outlooks on certain perspectives in life. The connection that they shared. It was like she was made specifically for him. No one would ever be able to hold a candle to her and the way she made him feel. She was his person, and he was hers. "To be honest...yeah." He replied, wrapping his arm around her. --- Knucks is a misunderstood teenage girl, deemed as destructive to the society with her reoccurring outbursts and rebellious behavior.

Temptations by nenewritesometimes

If there wasn't anything she hated the most it was MEN. Sevyn Moore, 22, was the girl that had a huge hatred towards the other gender. She had her reasons why and she felt as though they were reasonable for a girl like her. Sevyn wasn't the type that fell for the filter men would put on before their true colors were shown. She didn't fall for the same three lines dudes would say to get in her pants nor the same repetitive and disrespectful gestures. She was all for actions, yes, but she knew how to differentiate between forced ones and the ones that came from the heart. Even sometimes the ones from the heart didn't feel real to her, but that was as close as she was going to get to a real man. She knew one day she wanted to get married and live a happy life Mr. Right. But, in a world where disrespecting black women for clout was a new trend, sneaky links existed, and being exclusive was always a problem to people, she preferred being single than dealing with a man-child. Or any man at that matter. But, that was easier said than done. In most cases she was ready to lay down with a man even if he was a walking red flag, but she controlled herself. That was until she met the man himself where the thought of doing bad felt so damn good. She was tempted, but wasn't easy. This is Temptation.

Every time Isaiah looked at himself in the mirror, he was constantly reminded of the most traumatic moment of his life. He grew to hate himself until Namiko randomly waltzed into his life one day and began teaching him how to love himself again. It was as if she was his second chance. He'd been so pissed off all night to the point where he was physically shaking like a ticking bomb. This one hug from her felt like the rainbow after a severe thunderstorm. He couldn't believe that his sanity really depended on her. He'd never reached this point of love before. She brought him so much peace. That's why he loved her the way that he did; the reason why he couldn't stand to spend a single second away from her and why he depended on her to keep him sane. She was just it; like a breath of fresh air. He never expected the woman that ended up stealing his heart would be a real life Disney Princess wandering cluelessly around New York City; an autistic one, at that.
