Reader, think carefully about your life. First remember that argument you had with your loved one, then remember the day you walked away. Then think about those failing moments, when you were crushed and left behind in the dirt. I can, and will, share your pain.
It was once remarked to me that I have known enough pain in my life for one hundred people. Only at fourteen, after all, was I in a car accident which not only left me partially paralysed, but as blind as a bat. In a blink of an eye- or so to speak- my life was stolen away.
The doctors believed that I would never wake up from the coma, but I was strong, for I had faith in myself. Life since has been determined to hold me back, but I have fought to achieve what I want in my heart.
Delve into the realms of darkness and read the words I have etched onto this page- if you dare. You may find, amongst them, the glimmers of love and happiness which I have discovered after what seemed an eternity. So read on.

The Sound Of Your Voice
Dylan Bautista, the 25-year-old boy next door turned world-famous singer, musician, and painter, seemed to have everything-fame, fortune, and the kind of smile that made the world believe he was untouchable. But beneath the stage lights and painted canvases, his world begins to dim when he's diagnosed with a rare genetic disorder known as Usher Syndrome. The news comes crashing down the same night a devastating car accident steals his coordination and balance, trapping his once-brilliant hands in trembling silence. The trauma speeds up the cruel progress of his illness, blurring his hearing, fading his vision, and locking him inside a body that no longer dances to his music. Even the wealth and devotion of his adoptive parents can't buy back the rhythm of his steps or the clarity of his art. As months fade into endless therapy sessions, Dylan's reflection becomes a ghost of who he once was. When tragedy strikes again and his parents die suddenly, the last piece of his world finally shatters. In the silence left behind, enters Lea, the quiet, patient nurse hired by his late parents' trusted secretary to guide him through his brokenness. With each day she tends to him, Lea begins to see the man beneath the fame-the boy who still dreams of color and melody in a world going dark. Her care becomes more than duty; it becomes a lifeline pulling him toward hope, piece by fragile piece. But can she truly heal a man whose world is fading both in sound and sight? Or will Dylan's descent into silence swallow every song and stroke he has left to give? Disclaimer: This story is a work of fiction. Any resemblance to real people or events is purely coincidental - but if it feels real, that's because the heart remembers what the mind forgets. If they remind you of someone or something real, maybe it's because pain and hope speak a language we all understand. Still, if you see pieces of your own story here, take it as a reminder - even in fiction, healing is possible.
Choices
I feel arms wrap around me, pulling me into a warm body. "No." I whisper out, I try to get away but it was no use, the arms only wrapped tighter around my waist. My body freezes when a hand comes around my throat. "I told you kitten, I love the chase." I let out a groan when he bites my ear, pulling it. "Seems like I'm not the only one." A dark chuckle leaves his lips sending shivers down my body. I hold my thighs together as much as I could. "Luca, let her get ready." I look at Nikola, Luca let's go of me with a groan and I go to walk away from him. "You could always skip therapy and I could give you some therapy."

Cold Water
[BWWM] I was only twelve years old when the world turned cold. The day my mom died in that car accident, I felt like someone had dumped a bucket of ice water over my heart. My dad, who had always been my hero, suddenly became a stranger, filled with rage and blame. He couldn't see that I was hurting, too; he only saw me as a reminder of his loss. The accusations cut deep. He said it was my fault for being there, for not doing something to save her. For being the reason she was in the car in the first place. In the years that followed, things only got worse. The abuse started gradually-a harsh word here, a shove there-but it escalated, leaving scars that I carried long after the physical pain faded. I was drowning in my own despair, struggling to keep my head above water while my father's anger raged like a storm around me. I only had a break from his anger when I started living with Aunt Dina-my mom's older sister. Well, that was because she found me nearly dead on my bed after I took a dozen pills. I was tired of living. I had hit rock bottom. The harsh whispers that followed me around and the stares at school. I pretended not to notice, like it didn't bother me. But it did. I was alone. Then came Athalia, a ray of sunshine cutting through my darkness. With her, I felt something I hadn't felt in years-happiness. She became my light through the darkness and my lifeline. β’β’β’β’β’β’β’β’β’β’β’ β Warnings β οΈ ~ Mention of suicide ~ Anxiety attacks ~ Rape attempt ~ Mention of self-harm ~ DepressionComplete

Chances Of Truth βοΈ
"It's too much to remember everything and everyone, all pain and hurt is killing me day by day little by little. I wish I could remove all the pain and move on in my life. I wish I could find an eraser or Better a delete button, so that I could start from beginning, without any misery or pain." ......................................................................................... "Hey Eva, you know you can trust me, right? " He asked me again cupping my cheeks, I can't let him continue this. It had to stop now or it would be too late. I can't risk everyone's life specially his. If hurting him means, him being alive then I would do it without thinking. Again and again. "Eva are you even listening to me?" Noah asked moving his face closer. From this close I can even see the scar which he told me about, its just below the border line of his hair, it can be easily conceal but from this close its more real. His eyes, they are magical. I would love to look at them all the time and never get tired of looking at in them. No, I cannot do this to him, I can't be selfish, I have to do something this time. "No" I answer and walked away from him. .............................................................Complete
Flip Sides Of The Same Coin We Call Life
This romance autobiography is an accumulation of over 15 years of writings. I'm 72 and have experienced many wonderful, beautiful, educational, and enlightening moments. I've also endured the dark night of the soul where nothing means anything, all hope is gone, unrelenting loneliness and extremely deep re-occurring depressions. Flip sides of the same coin we call life. I've survived impossible accidents that should have killed me. I've filed bankruptcy twice, loosing half a million dollars of real estate. I haven't had a car in 10 years, rent a furnished apartment and all I own is a cellphone, television, and computer. I've had 20 different careers. Naming a few, I've been a foreman in a steel foundry, automobile salesman, district manager overseeing a 15-million-dollar territory, owner of a television/appliance retail company, store manager responsible for 80 employees, retail manager in the cellular industry, and a dealer for one of the largest casinos in the nation. Some of the wise decisions I thought I was making turned out to be really ridiculous. When writing these down, I wondered how on earth could I have possibly been that stupid. You'll find many that are quite hilarious. I started jotting down thoughts on a cell phone memo pad over 15 years ago. These writings have turned into eighteen manuscripts. An author has the natural talent to paint pictures with words; I do not possess that skill set. Quite by accident, I've developed into a writer. We are entering into an era of magnificent beauty, perfect harmony, perpetual joy, growing wisdom, pure truth, unending peace and unconditional love. You'll read of miracles that I and others have personally witnessed. There are no other logical explanations for what occurred. I've documented everything as accurately as memory permits. Read with an open mind and develop your own conclusions. Our awakening transcendence is occurring now. BobComplete
BROKEN HOPE (Lucas & Emilia Book 2)
I was so damn naive it's no wonder I've ended up here. Kidnapped by the man who promised me forever, just as I'd begun to understand the depths of his betrayal. It's a sad truth I didn't marry my husband for love. I married him for the life he promised to provide, and if I'm honest with myself, I married him in hopes one day he'd fill the void Lucas-my first love-left behind. Now after so many years, they're both back. And in my desperation to feel loved, to be wanted and chosen I've walked straight into this trap. All because I forgot life's harshest lesson... I'm not enough. No matter how much or how fiercely I love, the choice will never be me. Especially now. Surrounded by danger and at the mercy of my husband's enemies, I'm forced to face one final bit of truth. Much like love, hope is for the weak. I was a fool to believe in the vows and promises they made. In the Broken Redemption Series, one man's vow to protect the woman he lost becomes a battle between redemption, forgiveness, and the kind of love that refuses to let go. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is Book 2 of Lucas & Emilia's Broken Redemption arc. For the complete experience, start with Book 1: Broken Vows.Complete
