They say that the worst monsters live inside our heads. They prey on us when we are weak, gnashing their razor sharp teeth at us and with their glowing eyes, but aren't the oversized demons the ones we know. Shouldn't we fear most the demon we don't? Is there a reason we fear the same beings, the same forms with death in their eyes? Worst of all, the undefeated ones that feed of our pain. Maybe, the monsters in our head are mere warnings of our incredible ability to be purely cruel. Maybe WE are the real monsters.

Reflection
They say in the end we always pay for our sins, that when we reach those pearly gates and judgement falls that we will repent for our ways and justice will be served. That by only believing in HIS sacrifice are we truly ever saved. But... what if you are the sin itself... what if your very existence was a sin... an abomination stained onto the fabric of the world with no say nor choice of your own. An anomaly placed within the hands of the ignorant to wield as their weapon of choice. A damned creation in search of a salvation that will never be your own. What if... despite your beliefs... you could never be saved...Complete
The Forbidden Tale of Tuscanvalle
Every action taken to gain power, no matter the form, only drags you closer to something you can't control. In a world where knowledge, blood, soul, wealth, and even rapture are cultivated to fuel one's ambition, there's always a price to pay.

Expect a long, slow build-up that pays off in a big way. ***** DISCLAIMER: This story contains graphic violence, gore, and disturbing themes including forced cannibalism, infanticide, parental abuse, and more. Reader discretion is advised. ***** Update Schedule: Monday to FridayComplete
Demons
Demons are vile creatures. They kill, they torture, they do anything to satisfy their nasty needs. They have no order. They're just lost souls of humans who went to Hell. They have horns that grow up into the sky, wings, claws that rip through skin, sharpened teeth, and no remorse. They live in the fiery pits of Hell and they enjoy it. That's not exactly true.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
