Being a listener to everyone else's problems.
I don't want to, but I have to.
From listening, I am learning. But the fact that I lack the experiences make me think of "What if I was the one who's in that situation?"

Inside an Enigma (Youth Years)
Dear Reader, This journal is my own personal journal. As you read, you will come across letters, school work, essays, entries, photos, drawings, etc,. on how I, myself, experienced and saw the world. This is dedicated for those who seek what is true and is on a current quest to develop the betterment of oneself along with the multitude of peers in society. My objective is to help open new perspectives some may never have thought of, to open ears to those who may not hear, and to widen eyes of those who missed the small glimpses that were in front of them. With the constant change of new technology; Society reinventing itself day by day- I want to put out at least one source that shows what the world really is, and how to find the simplicity in life, because to most it seems seldom easy. You see, my main goal is not to live forever, but to create something that will. To create something that outlives me.Complete
SAUDADE
A boy. A boy like any other. But not for me. It was the way his eyes captured the whole world just by looking at me. Me, a normal girl. I wondered how could that be. But yet again I couldn't be happier. Because for once in my life I'm tragically not the one who loves more.Complete

Silent Echoes
This is where I let everything out-the chaos, the silence, the things I can't say out loud. It doesn't judge, doesn't ask why, doesn't need explanations. It just exists, ready to catch whatever spills from my mind, whether it's broken pieces or fleeting moments of joy. It feels like talking to someone who's always there but never speaks, just listens-and somehow, that's enough.Complete
Unrequited love
Love. As 'beautiful' as love can be it hurts and bleeds. If you're unlucky you may even love the very person you know you can't have. The best friend, The distant boyfriend, The sisters friend, The brothers friend, The ex best friend, Love isn't always given back the way you gave it. Leaving you with half a heart as the person you gave your half too never gave you their half back. But what if someone else has another half to make yours whole again?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...

Try me
I know that I'm fucked up we all have one thing that fucks us up wether its a person or a thing. But the problem is nobody owns it i own the fact that I'm fucked up to feel better about myself and my problems. I might be damaged goods. But all i want is for you to fucking try me. not editedComplete
Unhealthy Obsession |18+|
-Let's get this straight. From a dead end job to a useless crazy ex boyfriend- my happiness is with my best friend yet the fear of our relationship ending completely scares me and id rather fake it and be in fear than find out and never be happy. It sucks, seeing him everyday and knowing what i feel for him and how deep those feelings go is painful...- But when he comes around everything changes for the best and for the worst. As a whole they are deeply loved and equally as hated by others but the love from one another is undeniable, if only she wasnt so selfish with her choices and words- -Lying, cheating, sneaking, crying- many acts and emotions come from within when there's someone you love unaware of that love.. Possibly growing to love someone else right before your eyes..Its gut wrenching, i know because ive fucked up. Its worse when you're aware of the harm you cause yourself and others but dont care how the outcome turns out to be. Why would it matter how it effects you if youre used to pain and people leaving? it wouldnt. All because you take comfort in your own mind and mental illness, once you realize you have freewill it may become a bad thing if youre careless.- - Gabriella White.Complete
