The world long ago had this great humanity downfall that no one talks about and no one knows anything about. There are only stories and ruins left of what humanity use to be like before. Our society is built on not showing any emotion and having our lives paved for us before the time of our birth. I feel like i am trapped and don't belong in this world and yet everything that I supposedly do think is true is tested on a fateful day that someone walked into my life. Will this change better my life? Or will I regret the choices that I ultimately make.

The Sinborn
Being different, people throw that around like it means something. Like it's normal. Like it's safe. But I'm not just different. I'm alone. No name for what I am. No others like me. Not vampire. Not demon. Not human. Something else. Something wrong. In a world carved by blood and fire, where monsters walk in daylight and humans pretend, they're safe behind silver and salt, I exist between all of it. An anomaly. A threat. A mistake. They watch me. Fear me. But no one understands me. Not yet. And maybe when they do, it'll be too late.
「星に願いを」 (When You Wish Upon a Star) : Part Ω
I woke up in a world that shouldn't exist. And in a body that isn't mine. The city around me is in ruins-silent streets, broken buildings, a sky that no longer remembers the sun. I don't know how I got here. I don't know who I am. My memories slip through my fingers like sand, leaving behind only fragments-whispers of a promise I can't remember making. But something is wrong. The world feels... stuck, repeating itself like a broken record. Shadows move where they shouldn't. Time bends in ways I can't explain. And the deeper I search for answers, the clearer it becomes-this isn't just about me. There's something out there, buried in the loops of time. Watching. Waiting. If I break free, will I find the truth? Or will I disappear like everything else? When the stars grant a wish, what do they take in return?Complete
I'm A Big Fat Liar
How can one mistake of gender can break me. How is it that the only person to ever truly love me for me, now despises me. I can not even imagine what he'd think if he'd seen me now. I always knew love was a joke and now I'm living proof. I'm a big fat liar and I am now alone. (I understand this is cliche and like so many others, but I don't care. I tried to make it interesting, but if it's not I'm sorry. Please enjoy though.)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... HARMFUL THEMES INCLUDING MENTION OF SUICIDE, SELF HARM, AND RAPE. THIS HAS EXPLICIT CONTENT. RECOVERY AND AWARENESS IS THE PURPOSE OF SHARING. DO NOT READ IF THESE THEMES ARE OFFENSIVE OR HARMFUL TO YOU.Complete

Believe
We didn't want to believe in her, so she started to die. That's when it all started... What happens when we give up? Our fantasy, our dreams, they would be forever forgotten. Our reality, our life, that would go away eventually, too. And other things, like light, dark, emotions... you get the idea, would leave with it. In a world where Personificationites, or things that our brains interpret, (fantasy, reality, light, dark, emotions, and other stuff) are LIVING, when this happened, they would start to die. Because Fantasy would be lost first, that would lead to a domino effect. So, the Personificationites need to save Fantasy. But how do you make someone believe? And how can you save the world without even knowing who you are? #26 in AdventureComplete

The world is ending and I have unlimited supplies
They said the world was ending, but it didn't start with fire or war. It began with a storm-just like any other. But this time, it didn't stop. The rain fell for days, then weeks, and then came the flood that drowned everything. When the sun finally broke through the clouds, people thought it was over. They thought it was hope. But that hope was a lie. The sun scorched the land. Insects bred in the rotting water. Plague spread like wildfire. Water became scarce, food even scarcer. They said Mother Earth was angry, and I believed them. I did everything to survive. Even if it meant relying on a filthy, twisted man for bread. He preyed on girls like me-young, desperate, orphaned. He fed us, clothed us, and in return, demanded we sell our bodies. He called it "the price of protection." Men came to us like vultures. They stripped away our innocence and left us hollow. And then, one winter night, starving people stormed our hideout. They came with knives and desperation. I threw myself in front of the youngest girl when one lunged to stab her. I took the blade meant for her. As my body went cold, I felt no fear. Just peace. Finally, I thought. This nightmare is over. But when I opened my eyes again... I was in my bed. Warm. Dry. Dressed in pajamas. It hadn't been a nightmare. It had been real. And now, it's happening all over again. But this time, I won't be weak. This time, I won't be used. This time... I'll survive. No matter the cost.
Being different, people throw that around like it means something. Like it's normal. Like it's safe. But I'm not just different. I'm alone. No name for what I am. No others like me. Not vampire. Not demon. Not human. Something else. Something wrong. In a world carved by blood and fire, where monsters walk in daylight and humans pretend, they're safe behind silver and salt, I exist between all of it. An anomaly. A threat. A mistake. They watch me. Fear me. But no one understands me. Not yet. And maybe when they do, it'll be too late.
