Damaged Stories

"Don't open the door, Ruhi," Bianca warned me. "You'll let the monsters in." I should have listened. God, I should have listened. But my humanity was louder than my fear. And when the knocking came, I answered. I didn't Ist open the door to a stranger. I opened it to my own destruction. He didn't steal my heart. He stole my soul and the last piece of my sanity. And he wasn't the only one waiting in the dark. Pain blurred into silence. Tears blurred into surrender. In the end, it wasn't about love. It wasn't even about survival. It was about who could take more from me and how much of myself I was willing to lose before I stopped fighting. "You look beautiful when you bleed." He ran the blade down my hip. "Aarohi, my Ruhi. Isn't that what your name means? My beautiful soul. I will turn your soul so dark, you will forget what light feels like." He pressed it further, but I did not hiss. I did not want to give him the satisfaction of seeing me in pain. "How long will you hold on, Ruh? The prouder you are, the harder the fall will be." He grazed his teeth down to my hip bone, where the wound just opened, and he bit down hard so my hips bled more. That was what Acheron Delatore was. A soul sucking demon from the depths of hell and I was his lifeline.

𝟏𝟖+| I was said to be 𝐭𝐨𝐨 𝐝𝐚𝐦𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐝, 𝐭𝐨𝐨 𝐢𝐦𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞... 𝐭𝐨𝐨 𝐮𝐧𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞. I had heard it so much in my life that it had manifested into a truth that remained rock solid in my brain. It consumed every surface of my body and mind like a deadly cancer It had become a promise to myself. A reminder. A standard. It was a rule applied to every person in my life, except him... He was the same as I was; no matter how different our outside identities were. We were cut from the same cloth on the inside. There was no denying that he and I were both broken souls left in a broken world. Both craving an eternal slumber before we met, but his darkness played so well with mine that suddenly it began feeling more like light, warmth, goodness... a happy ending.

But when one of her parties get out of hand and the cops are called, she's in for a rude awakening as she comes face to face with the new guy in town: Officer Herrera. He's wasn't like the usual officers she dealt with, and she finds that out quite quickly as she gets dragged away to jail for the night. They both wish to never see each other again, but there was something stronger than their dislike for each other keeping them together. The stronger their dislike grows, the more attached they become, until the lines become so blurred that they can't tell the difference between hatred and love anymore. They could say they hated each other, but if anything, a small part of them knew it would turn into love. If that love would last once everything was revealed... It was only a matter of time before they found out. ----

"Fancy seeing you here." Jasper inturrupts. "Uh.. Yeah" I say trying to find the words to speak "Seeing a ghost" is no way of putting a discription of the face I made or the feeling i felt in that moment. The feeling of seeing an old love walk back into your life after many years.

Damaged. Relatable. Confused. I hope this help the ones that can't express how they feel.

I've heard countless times that kids are lightweights. Easy to fall, very easy to break. If I was someone else, I would probably say when they fall something or someone cushions them, thus breaking the fall. With where I am currently standing I say, when lightweights fall, they break.

This is my story, my secrets, the things that moulded the woman I now am, the mother I've become and the syndical, pedantic, untrusting view I have on the world and its inhabitants. Surviving abuse, religious conditioning, sibling death, teen parenthood, an abusive marriage, supernatural encounters and realising my own strength, seeing people for who they are and following my gut. My life or the parts that are significant enough to type, this is the stripped to the core truth with no concern of offending or upsetting. This is my world.

Just a little bit of poetry and short stories I wrote about life and feelings 🙂
