I was hoping he couldn't see me
Praying really
He was scanning the horizon
The windows in all the buildings
Glaring at the wood on the doors
Deciphering the swirls of the house numbers

'I won't let go...,' Her words went right through me as I leant on the wooden door. Frozen to death. I don't know how I could hear them, I wasn't really there anymore. At least... not me as I knew me. No, when I opened my eyes it felt like I was back in time, somehow, some way... which way it could be? You got me. But this time... this place I was in, I knew it. It was Purgatory...Complete
Hospital For Souls
My mind keeps going everywhere... I hear stuff in my head, I see the room spinning as I start to get up from my bed. All gray or faded colors spread across it. Blood on my walls, very weird how they haven't gave me a different room. I look around and I see my door open and a guy covered in tattoos at the door step. "Let them sing" he said in a raspy voice. "I'll try..." I respond, but as I blink he has disappeared and my door is closed. I look at the window as I notice it's covered in bars. Outside is my fear, my fear of being seen. As I look far in the woods I see him again. He moved his lips as I read them. He said something like 'wait for me, and I'll see you' I think. That was what I last remembered before I blacked out.Complete
Hope
"So why'd you do it? I mean why'd you pick Hope of everything?" She mumbled while softly tapping the strings of the guitar. I paused, silently contemplating. "I don't know, I guess..." She looked at me, her fingers still softly dancing against the strings. "-I guess I wanted a reminded or what I should think about after what happened" ♡ Hope tried to heal, tried to run from her past by giving herself a brand new beginning to a life that was tainted, but she couldn't quiet grasping why she couldn't move on completely. Hours of therapy, mornings of remembrance, it's all like an impending test to her but for reasons unknown to her everything just wasn't moving into place just yet.Complete

White Top Hats
It started when the rain fell. As it hit the windows rhythmically, I fought my sleep. Fighting off the demons in my dreams. I hadn't realized how real that dream became. Waking up to terrified screaming. My heart racing, the lighting striking and my family begging for their lives. I claimed myself as a coward that very same night. I hated myself. My depression became the best of me. What's worst then your family being slaughtered? Hiding in the closet from the killers. I should've helped, I should've been there for them. The pain between my chest and stomach was growing guilt. So I started thinking smart. Looking at everyone differently. I decided to reopen their cold cases. And when I found the truth it hit me deep.Complete
The Catharsis (Volume II)
❝The family that lived next door was so weird. Daniel liked to look out his window at night and watch their tall grass and wild brambles sway in the night wind, broken windows dark all the time, except the occasional flare of a cigarette from the second floor bedroom. And, sometimes, the streetlights reflecting off a pair of blue eyes in the livingroom window, still and blinking like a trapped animal.❞ Cover by @-Jewels-Complete
SHADOW|PART 0.5| DEVINA X MASON STORY
All I wanted was him. His eyes were like starlight, everything about him made me so uncomfortable but that didn't change the fact that he was the one I wanted. I should have known better at the time.

Now I'm here, looking at the window wondering how life would have been if I didn't let him. I should have seen the crazy. But like the dark makes shadows flee, I'll hold on to the little light he left me with. And in every room, I'll stare into the shadows in hopes of seeing him again.Complete
