artist cancer death depression downs father feels music musician sad son suicide

Following the death of his mentally impaired sister, Lucas Blake sinks into deep depression. Each day that passes feels like an eternal emptiness until he finally decides to end his life. He runs to a hill near his house with a single tree on top, desiring to kill himself.

But then he meets her.


I wrote this story for a creative writing class my senior year of high school. Its tone and themes are supposed to emulate John Green in their sadness and maturity. Of course, having never read a book by John Green, I have no idea how well (or even if) I pulled this off. In any case, I hope you cry.All Rights Reserved

Misery Loves Company by KishaMJHayes

"Make it stop!! Make it stop!!" I scream with tears running down my face as jolts of pain pierce through my body. "I can't," My mom tells me over and over again as she cries too. "What the hell is going on?" Drake yells, still half naked after trying to rape me for the second time in my life. My brother comes bursting through the door at an inhumane speed and picks up my naked body and runs off towards the woods. I don't know what's happening, my head is spinning, my body is in pain and a voice in my head is telling me to relax, let go and let them take control. What do they mean, let go? "Stop fighting the change Misery." Stanley tells me. What is he doing here? The pain increases, of all the days why does this happen on my birthday, was my last thought before the darkness engulfs me. This is the first time I'm letting my writing be seen. I do appreciate criticism and pointers of mistakes that I make.

Bound by Darkness by ElectricKitty01

"This is a nightmare, it's only a nightmare..." I say to myself as I try to catch my breath while leaning against a tall pine tree. Only for a moment do I stay in that position until I hear a twig snap. I quickly leap away from the tree and run as fast as I can. "Wake up (Y/N)! just wake up!!!" I think to myself. "You are awake my dear..." I hear that voice. That damn voice. "GET OUT OF MY HEAD!!!" I scream. I continue to run past trees and hopping over large rocks. The mist in the air begins to get thicker as I continue this race. "Why me? out of all the people this had to happen to me!" my brain races with thoughts until my foot gets caught by a tree root sticking out of the ground. I fall hitting my head on a rock. My vision is blurry and I can feel a warm liquid begin to stream down my face. "My dear (Y/N), look what you have done to yourself. You shouldn't have tried to run away." the voice goes through my head again. I look around and see nothing but trees. "LEAVE ME ALONE!!!" My voice begins to grow sore from the constant running and yelling. The sound of leaves crunching comes from behind me and I whip my head around until my eyes are met with him. "My dear (Y/N), you've made quite the mess of yourself. You know you are not aloud to leave......now you'll have to be punished." The figure says without any facial expression or motion. The figure begins to walk forward towards me. I try to back away until my vision becomes black and all I can hear is static.
