Life leaves us with many questions. People say they have answers but there are so many things that cannot be explained and so many uncertainties. This book of poetry will explore that topic.


 Here we lived our simple story
of childhood without renown
Enjoying that time at the quarry
with nobody else around

By fires glow and bright starlight
we watched the dark encroach
Yet we were free and quite alright 
and in our youth quite grown

Obsidian abyss by sieraQinn
10 parts Ongoing
In a world where the lines between life and death are blurred, a group of strangers finds themselves trapped in an eerie, haunting place that seems both alive and dead. With no memory of how they arrived or who brought them here, they must unravel a twisted puzzle that will determine their fate. As they awaken in their own graves, the tombstones bearing cryptic messages, it becomes clear: they are not ordinary people. But whether they are alive or dead remains a mystery they must solve. The lines between the living and the dead blur as they uncover the horrifying truth of their predicament: they are part of an intricate, deadly game where the rules are constantly shifting. Their memories-altered, fragmented-are pieces to a puzzle that must be solved before time runs out. But in this twisted world, time itself is a dangerous, unreliable force. The deeper they go, the more it becomes clear: escaping will not be enough. They must confront the monsters within themselves, face the darkness they carry, or risk being swallowed whole by the haunting world that surrounds them. The question is no longer just how to survive, but how to escape the twisted grip of their own minds. Will they ever find the truth, or will they forever be lost in the labyrinth of fear and illusion?

The Trees Remember by narapips
39 parts Ongoing
The trees have always stood in silence. Until now. Something is wrong in the forest. The wind carries whispers that no one else hears, the earth trembles beneath unseen forces, and shadows stretch where they shouldn't. It's subtle-just enough to go unnoticed by most. But not by them. Not by the twins. Secrets linger between the roots, waiting to be unearthed. As the days pass, the pull grows stronger, drawing them deeper into something far beyond their understanding. The past is not as forgotten as it seems. The warnings were never just folklore. And the trees? The trees remember everything.

Falling, Still by Dee_zire
16 parts Ongoing
"What does it mean to love someone who doesn't love you back? To wait, to hope, to wonder if love can change the way the stars align?" This is not just a story,it's a journey. A raw, intimate recollection of love that bloomed in silence, of moments that lingered too long in the spaces between friendship and something more. It's about patience, about the ache of wanting, and the quiet magic of the unexpected. But this isn't a tragedy. This is a love story. A story of persistence, of quiet longing turned into something real;of two souls finding their way to each other against all odds. Some love stories are loud, written in fireworks and grand gestures. This one was whispered..written in stolen glances, unsaid words, and the kind of love that waits. If you've ever loved, lost, or wondered what it means to hold on-this is for you.
The Silent Heir by VRiddle6
13 parts Ongoing
They say Mattheo Riddle is cursed. Silent. Dangerous. Untouchable. Whispers of his power haunt the halls of Hogwarts, but no one dares to get close. No one, except Evara Cantrell-the girl who doesn't fear him, the girl who finds his forgotten note in the library: "Sometimes I dream of screaming." Curiosity becomes obsession. A prophecy long buried resurfaces. Mattheo's voice isn't just forbidden-it's a weapon, capable of unraveling reality itself. And when the Ministry comes for him, when ancient seals are shattered and the world begins to break, Evara must face the truth. She was never meant to love him. She was made to erase him. But when the final word is spoken, and time rewrites itself, only one question remains- "Do you remember me?"

When millions of Earth's populations left four hundred years ago seeking a new planet to colonise, it paved the way for Earth to stabilise and thrive. But what happened to those people? Why has there been no contact? Are the visions sent from the ancient humans who left planet Earth? Zee quickly learns that her newfound independence is not without its challenges. Some of which might not be from this planet.
