The pain comes in waves
And I try to push it away
There doesn't seem to be time
For grief in my day to day

But when I am successful
In hiding from my pain
I find that love and hope
Become difficult to attain

So I will embrace the feelings
The anger, guilt and grief
I will allow for love and hope
To give me some relief

-Tanya Lord

Quinn and Lee met as the world crashed and burned around them. 
Most stories that begin this way would tell of their epic love story amid their troubles, 
about how they overcome their adversity to live happily ever after.
But not this time. 
Their story isn't so predictable.

Finding Purpose (+18) ✔️ by ZaynismRules

***this book contains suicidal thoughts and tendencies, may not be appropriate for younger audiences*** In which she looks for the purpose of life. Lily Carter's parents died in a car crash leaving her and Laura, girl was depressed long before her parents passed away and with all the problems turning up now, Lily felt more miserable - if that's even possible. With her journey to look for life's purpose and grab the small pinch of HOPE - which is ironically her second name -, will she finally snap at the pressure and finally end it all? or will a small light lit her darkened world of grief and loneliness? * "So you know. The little goth girl who gets bullied is indeed a mess. There's this mess in her head that eats her alive everyday isn't it? What to do now Kaden? Tell the whole neighborhood and recieve an award for taking out a crazy in this world?" I spit like vomit. His eyes warmed up as I finished, "Lily. It isn't like that" "What is it then? People stopped caring... they gave up, why aren't you?" I fought my tears. "Because I feel the need to care. Did Leigh hurt you? Did she hit you?" he finally noticed the unusual redness of my cheek. I don't like the way he told me he needed to care for me. I felt like an obligation, a responsibility that he is carrying and carrying leads to getting tired and when people gets tired, they give up. I don't want them to give up on me. But they will, so it's good not to make them care for me in the first place. "I never needed anyone. I stopped needing anyone before, why start now?" I uttered the words again. Why? There is nothing to fight for. No mama. No papa. No sister to love me. No one. So why would I waste my life and the time of others to fix what is already broken - and someone who doesn't want to be fixed? If I may add. Maybe I gave up. No, scratch that. I gave up a long time ago - when my parents died, my hope and purpose went away with them.

We must've stood in silence for hours watching the waterfall while holding onto each other as though we'd never see each other again if we let go. That was alright with me. I loved holding her, and this was the perfect moment. I waved my hand in the air in front of her so she could see. The flames left my hand like they were meant to fly away. It was a trail of fire floating in the air floating just above us, but circling around us. She smiled as she watched them. I watched her beautiful smile as her eyes lit up to the beautiful flames. She did a similar movement as I, and waved her hand in the air allowing a trail of water to circle around us with the fire. Neither of us spoke. We didn't need to. It was one of those moments. Not a problem in the world. ------------------------------------------------------------- Disclaimer to Maximum Ride and Her family! But story line is all rights reserved!
