Death and what comes with it are serious topics. I don't think anyone will ever be able to fully comprehend another's reaction to loosing someone they love, someone they can no longer make memories with. I believe you can only connect with someone so much over similar experiences and there are some reactions that are, yes, close, but not exact to a point of being fully understood.
I have been considering topics like these and those similar to it, and I have decided no matter my experience or already existing donations to books on the topic, this will be another. Except, mine will be put up to extreme proportions to show extreme reaction.

They Called Me a Tragedy
[Currently discontinued] I lost everything before I even knew how to live. Orphaned, cast into the care of relatives who never wanted me, I learned early that the world doesn't notice when you disappear. To everyone around me, I am quiet, polite, fragile. I stay in the corners. I smile when I must. People say I'm sweet, obedient, unassuming - perhaps they are right. Perhaps they don't see the ways I watch, the choices I make in silence. I move carefully. I observe. I wait. Some doors, once opened, are better left undiscovered. They called me a tragedy. Perhaps they were right - or perhaps they never truly understood.

Save Me
I was drowning. I knew that. I also knew that the hands around my throat, pushing me deeper into the river water was the cause. What I didn't know was who was drowning me and why. It hurt thinking. It hurt to do anything right now. But I still screamed under the cold water and pushed the hands away as hard as I could. It didn't have much effect. I fought and fought, but I was getting weaker, and colder. The pain was overbearing. I couldn't breathe. It was the worst pain imaginable; and as the hands that were around my neck were forcibly ripped off by some unknown force, I slipped deeper into the depths of the river. My hair was straight above me along with my arms. My eyes were open and the water burned. A darkness started to pull me under, taking the pain away. I felt a small pressure around my waist, before the darkness completely consumed me. The last thing I remember is thinking, save me.Complete
Unlock me, Dear Key! "A story of an Unending Love"
Loving are part of our existence in this world 'cause we have an ability to fall, admire and love someone we met in our lives. However the crazy thing is we exceeded on our limitations cause we thought it's okay to love that way but unfortunately that's not right and fair to continually do it. There are so many expectations that made us so much dissapointed ; when we're hoping that someone that we really love will like and love us back one day. Alongside the insane decision someone could take is to believe that there's hope and Miracle that the one we chose to love will acknowledge and choose us the way we do at last. In addition, We desperately defined who will be the key on the doors of hearts but doing this thing will deceively cause so much pain in the end. Thus, the heart breaking part is when we realized that the one we're waiting to open our heart already found the right door that fits his /her keys while we are on the other side still stuck on the phase of illusion.Complete
Melancholia
Documentations of feelings, connections, and emotions. Contains perhaps some explicit things. Do not read if you are easily triggered, unprepared or too squeamish of all things raw and not sugarcoated. If my opinion angers you, for that I will be sorry. But I won't be responsible, nor will I let it affect me. In these chapters, you will read about heartbreak, tragedy, personal reflection and everything in between, and out and beyond. All this will be given either through short 'stories,' recounts or poems, and it also includes some of my favourite quotes, and other things like spells and old, unintentionally poetic text messages. If you decide to carry on and read, I hope you can relate. And I hope, all the more, that you can not because some things will come across as 'upsetting.' But what I do fundamentally hope is that it helps you awaken, open your eyes so you can feel. Because to feel means that you have a soul, and what is less beautiful than the knowledge of consciousness?Complete

Ramblings of a drunken monkey
This biography of personal philosophy was started when I was inebriated, the middle bit was done when enlightened and the ending wrote itself. I've dipped in and out of this between life, work, parenting, writing a fiction novel or two, training and healing along the whole way. These are the words that come to me about, well, everything; the way the world works and indeed doesn't work in my eyes. Whether it will work in the end remains to be seen but indeed during the two years I've been writing this the world has changed, both for the better and the worse. Wars, murder, politics, religious hysteria and mass hate has been balanced by an increase in enlightenment, acceptance of alternative therapies and widespread use of 'mindfulness' and the will for peace. In this time societies have stretched to the limits of depravity and saintliness and I presume will eventually break or twang back to an uncomfortable medium. Whilst it has been horrible to watch at times I have to admit that these extremes are necessary for a population to understand how far it can and should go, like a small child who tests at being good and bad to see it's parents reactions before settling into a balanced middle ground. The question there is, what are the parents like? Well, as I see it, Dad's a bit of a devil and Mum's an angel so I'm sure the kid will turn out alright in the end.Complete
