The story of a girl who just wanted to feel wanted.
--
Illusive is a story I've been working on since I was in 7th grade. I'm currently a sophomore in college. This story has meant so much to me over those years and I'm glad that I'm finally getting comfortable enough to post it. I've been struggling to get it how I want it. It wasn't originally going to be poetry, but I got a little inspiration from another great story. 
Illusive is based on a dream I had about my 7th-grade crush, which is embarrassing, but oh well.  I couldn't get the strange dream out of my head and thought it made an interesting idea for a story. 
Illusive has a relatively short storyline, despite my efforts to make it longer. If I do add more poems in between the current ones, I'll post a new story that will be the extended version.
The plan at the moment for this story is to compile an omnibus type thing that has the story written in different styles. I've already developed a short story called  'Illusive: A Summary' that is fairly short but gives more detail about Sadie. 
The idea is that by writing it in different styles, the reader will be able to get more out of the story. I know I've shown it to a few friends and they didn't understand the story told through poems. 

I'm sorry for all this rambling on the story description but I don't want to ruin the book by posting it in one of the parts.

Now, may I present my most precious work, Illusive.

MELANCHOLY | Melancholy drips from my fingertips. SOON TO BE A PUBLISHED PAPERBACK. COMING 2025! This melancholy drips from my fingertips so slowly, you begin to forget I even exist. All of me, the hard parts of flesh you could never seem to love, drips down the drain. I am waiting for the day for your fingers to unscrew the pipes, dig through debris and mess, scrape your heart against the rust, just to find me, so we can go through it all over again. Here, in the pages I find myself, in the ink that writes against my flesh, I will whisper the sadness, the heartache, and the decaying for all of the unspoken. Perhaps under this layer of melancholy, the girl I once knew still exists.    First poetry collection in the series. Original poems based off real life experiences. #12 in poetry.
