❝ And from here, they can't see me stare. I watch the patchwork farms slowly fade into the ocean's arms. Calm down, release your cares. ❞
I sit by the tiny mail slot at the door with my cat, Jasper. It's become a sort of routine now.
The first letter was twelve years ago, I was thirteen and the letter was probably addressed to the girl who lived here before me, but I opened it. Despite my strong urge to simply send it back, I didn't.
The letter read:
Dear _____,
Hi. I forgot your name. Would you mind telling it to me again?
Sincerely yours,
Jericho Adams

The Neko And The Human Boy (BXB Yaoi)
Hey, I'm Kioshi Makoto. I live in Tokyo, Japan all by myself. I've always lived by myself. Sure, it's lonely but I don't mind the quietness it gives me. My mom and dad have been living in America ever since I turned 16. They were always busy with work so they wouldn't pay me much attention. They decided that I didn't need them anymore so they just left. I'm a senior in high school. The end of the year is gradually getting closer. I'm glad. It's boring at school. Mostly because I don't have any friends and every body ignores me. But I guess that's what you get for not socializing. When I thought all hope was lost I was wrong. There was still hope. When I meet a stray cat that's sleeping in an alley way my life goes from boring and lonely to exciting and filled with love.Complete
this is where i wanna grow old
(this is a sequel to "...does this seem familiar to you?" and "you don't get to choose whether or not i exist!") Mark, Hey man. I don't know where you are or if you'll ever see this letter-I don't even know whether you're alive or dead right now so it's not like I can just send this to you. Honestly I'm just assuming you're dead and reading this as you come back as a ghost to haunt me. And the first thing I wanted to say is that I'm sorry.Complete

Peter pan's lost girl
Mermaids, beaches, fairies! this place is awesome. someone then snatched the book out my hands. "Mermaids? what is this crap?" I looked up to see Cynthia and her clique. "why do you carry this thing around with you all the time?" I stood up and held out my hand. "give it back." "why? it's not like you can read it, you're stupid." Her words didn't mean anything to me but those words are going to come back to me tonight and punch me in the face. "How old are you? aren't you like 16 and reading this children's book?" How long have you been here Michelle? Tears welled up in my eyes. I knew what was coming next. "answer me, hoe!" "10 years" I mumbled. "10 years and still haven't been adopted? that's sad. why are you still living? no one loves you. no one ever will. I bet your parents crashed their car on purpose just to get away from you." I had enough. I threw myself at her. I slammed my fists into her pretty face. then her clique joined in. I was outnumbered. Everything got blurry after the second kick. They continued and I blacked out.Complete

Going Nowhere
My name is Hibiscus Brown, my best friend is a unicorn and my life is going absolutely nowhere. Oh, and I'm a witch. At least partly - the rest is all werewolf. After growling a little to loudly, Hibiscus, Kitty, Brown finds herself in the unfortunate situation of having to move back home to live with her dad /the werewolf/, her step-mom /the werebear/, and all the other creatures living in a small town called Nowhere. Surely it's just temporary? Surely even a half-witch/half-werewolf can figure out what she wants to do with her life? Surely the handsome werewolf who just moved back will ignore her, like he /mostly/ did when they were in high school? And surely the mysterious dark stranger who seems to pop up just about everywhere will help her when she needs it? So many questions... let's see if we can bring some clarity to it all, shall we? *** NOTE *** There will be f-bombs. And references to s-e-x. Nothing graphic because it's not my style, but there certainly will be shit that isn't super appropriate for a younger audience. You have been warned. © lenanorth All the words are mine. Please don't steal them. Write your own instead (and let me know so I can read them).Complete
Sincerely Luna Rose
Dear Nobody, My name is Luna Rose Wesley and I'm just like any other girl my age. I have some secrets, I'm afraid of the future, I have some complicated relationships and some amazing friends, and I'm just trying to do anything that I can to survive. But as the days pass, it seems like surviving in my world is becoming more difficult with every minute. You see, without any money, my family is forced to live in in an apartment building that's smack dab in the center of our rundown part of the city. And my mother is just a work of art. She is now addicted to drugs, and she isn't trying very hard at all to try to get us out of our inner-city situation. Living in constant fear, not only of what's outside my window at night, but also of my violent dealing brother living in the room across the hall, I have to find a way to cope without putting a bullet in my skull like so many of my fallen brethren. And my coping mechanism is to write letters to nobody- to you- and sending it to an address that doesn't exist. I need somebody to talk to without that somebody thinking that I'm looking for pity, so I've found you. Nobody. Thanks for listening. Sincerely, Luna Rose (Rated Mature for the mentioning of sex, drug use, violence, and profane language. Does not contain actual sex scenes.)Complete
