I just can't help the feeling of worthlessness and broken spirit. Every time I look into the mirror and acknowledge every flaw. Every time I feel proud of something and the people closest to me judge it and make it a failure instead of a success. Maybe that's every 14 year old though, how would I know. I'm the one in the back of the class who hides every time people are asked for their opinion on something. Well I'm not actually that person I'm the person who volunteers whenever nobody else does and likes to show off by sitting from and center and answering everything first.

"When I'm sitting at a hundred, or when you win your girlfriend back?" "I'm not necessarily saying I want her back," I said. "We're just doing this for the fun of it. I can't really put a timing on it." She was quiet a moment before impulsively agreeing. "Fine," She gave a shrug. "Although, I will have to say, I feel bad for you." "Why do you feel bad for me?" "I can't be your Juliet."Complete

For everyone with a sensitive heart made to grow strong much too quickly. For everyone who struggles to get out of bed in the morning. For everyone who never could find the words to say why. For everyone who struggles to feel and for everyone who feels too much. For everyone who had to pick themselves back up. For everyone who had to parent themselves. For everyone fighting an invisible battle. For everyone who has been underestimated. For everyone who has to flee to other worlds to cope. For everyone who found other means to silence their voices. For everyone who was silenced. For everyone who was over powered. For everyone who was made to be less. For everyone who had to watch someone else suffer and stay silent. For everyone asking themselves, why? Why would you do this? What did I do? Why is this happening to me? It was never your fault.Complete

Landing on my knees, I kneeled back against the bottom of the cold door, letting it cool my hot skin. "Good girl."

Never forget the way you feel right now, Madie." **MATURE AUDIENCES ONLY** This story contains sensitive topics such as abuse, violence, and explicit sexual content.Complete

Too Afraid To Hope
I stare at the girl in the mirror, feeling the horrible scratchy material of the skinny jeans, harsh against my skin. I hate skinny jeans. But I want to fit in. I want to be one of those pretty, confident skinny girls. I want to look at the mirror and acknowledge that I am beautiful and appealing to boys. I'm not just a fat lump. I want to feel love like in the love stories. I want to know that someone out there is right for me. That someone loves me. I know that my Mom and my big brother love me. But that's all.

This is the story of how she proved those girls wrong. This proves that if you're not happy either, YOU CAN CHANGE!Complete
