"Somebody asked me once what it felt like to be depressed. And you know what I said? I said, "It feels like drowning except you can see everybody around you breathing." They didn't understand what I meant. And that's probably because they didn't see the world through the same eyes as me. So here you go. Welcome to my world."

It does get better.
People say it will get better. But to be fair, most of them never were in your place. They say you will get happy again, but how can they know? I've struggled with trauma, mental illnesses, and self harm for many years. These are (mostly) poems - about me and my journey of getting better. ! As this is about self harm and other previously mentioned topics, it might be triggering. I don't glorify it in any way, though. I'm also not a native English speaker. If you find any mistakes, please tell me so I can improve.
Outcasts
Lucinda is a girl with a heart of gold but more baggage than she can carry. Nathan is reclusive guy who has seen too much for his years. Alex is a hot-blooded brawler with something hidden beneath the surface. Alice is sweet, overly happy sugar addict, with a secret. And Lucky just doesn't seem to have what it takes to impress the ladies. In highschool, everyone's got a story to tell. Even more so when you're an outcast, cursed to live a life considered less by the general population. Some secrets are worse than others. Some things are better left unsaid. And sometimes choices are made that really are irreversible.Lengkap
The Devil's Crybaby
Eliza Labelle had survived a shooting that should have killed her, but surviving turned out to be the beginning of her problems rather than the end. After waking in a hospital bed with a bullet wound and a government determined to bury the incident, she discovered that the man responsible had vanished behind the walls of a place most people only whispered about. While her family tried to push her back into her privileged city life, strange events and growing unease made it impossible for her to forget what happened. When she was suddenly taken from everything she knew and dragged beyond the safety of the world she had grown up in, Eliza found herself trapped in a brutal land ruled by old loyalties, hidden power structures, and people who lived by laws far different from those of the city. As she struggled to survive among dangerous strangers, she uncovered secrets that connected powerful families, forbidden territories, and a world that had been carefully hidden from ordinary people. The deeper she was pulled into that world, the harder it became to separate friend from enemy, truth from manipulation, and survival from sacrifice. What began as a fight to return home slowly became a journey that forced her to confront the darkest parts of human nature, the cost of loyalty, and the reality that some doors could never be closed once they were opened.
Caged In Vows
It wasn't love. It wasn't choice. It was fear that tied them together. Year's ago a priest's prophecy said a tragedy could be avoided only if both families are tied by marriage. So they were. Two strangers bound by superstition - growing up as each other's biggest mistake. He blamed her for the life he never wanted. She blamed him from the childhood stolen from her. They learned to hate the walls the other built. but the time has a strange way of changing people. And somewhere between the resentment, silence and years of pretending not to care... her heart betrayed her. She fell for the person who wished she didn't exist Because not all cages are made of iron. Some are woven with fate, emotion and vows that refuse to break...!!Lengkap
Voices in My Head
Pain. Agonizing pain. That's all I feel. Voices. Whispering voices. That's all I hear. I hear them over and over inside of my head. I can't escape. I can't fight back. This is my life. This is my story. And if you can give me your time, I'll tell it to you. *Warning: contains themes of selfharm and mental disorders **Completed as of 7/30/18Lengkap
Becoming, Before Belonging
My name is Evelyn, and I've always been mesmerised by stories- I can't deny that. Nor can I deny that maybe, just maybe, I prefer William over every other boy I've met. But does that mean we're meant to be? Can there ever be a future 'us', or will family secrets get in the way? Will I ever truly understand what I want in life- and is it really love? This is my story. And I've found that I'm finally ready to share it.
