Nomorescars Stories

"A sane person to an insane society must appear insane." -Kurt Vonnegut "i can't find my way out" In which a girl with schizophrenia finds herself locked in an asylum. "the silence haunts me" Her only sanctuary is the scarlet garden that spreads beyond her cage. "a sea of red too thick to jump into" There, a shadow flits about. "unseen, unheard, unacknowledged" It whispers in a world weary voice words more tangible than she ever heard before. "turn around and walk away" Too dangerous to stay, too intoxicating to walk away. "plunge this world into the deepest, darkest pits of tartarus" ____________________________________ Book 2 in the "enlightenment" series. Sound.

Intro Broken hearts and scars in only places she can see, she just wanted, she just wanted, to feel something-Molly Kate Kestner, His Daughter Not everyone is lucky. Not everyone has lots of money, lots of friends, and a great family. Alia Johnson isn't one of those people. She has all of those things. She has great grades, good looks, and lots of friends, yet somehow, she is lacking a big thing, a father. Her dad died just one year ago, when his army team was bombed as soon as he was deployed to Iraq. Since than, she lost a lot of other things. Hope, confidence, strength. She has quit dancing, and has also lost interest in music all together. She can't seem to be able to get happy, no matter how much she tries. She doesn't put forth effort to anything anymore, because she feels she has truly lost the light in her life, leaving her miserable and uselessly stranded in the dark. As the holiday season comes around, what used to be a joyus occasion, is now only another miserable time for her. Her mom has yet to notice her struggles, her friends just don't seem to care, and even if she was to have the whole world surrounding her, she could still never feel as though she wasn't alone. Her anxiety keeps her up at night, and leaves her unable to get any sleep. Her thoughts on her self-image and self-worth are also impacting everything she does, from eating, to exercising, to picking out clothes. Letting others thoughts on herself become even more important than her own. Follow Alina and her story as she fights, flies, and cries, along with many other emotions and actions through this journey of hers. Will she be able to overcome this sadness, this struggle, and these other issues she is facing? Will she be able to make it to the end of the tunnel and face the light? Or will her world fade into an even darker blackness than she had before? Find out in... Waiting for That Thing Called Light

"Stupid. Worthless. Ugly. Stupid. Worthless. Ugly.

To him stupid, worthless, and ugly are the only things he will ever amount to.

What has pushed you to believe taking your life is the answer? Are you really going to do it? What happens when death isn't as peaceful as you expected? What if a Reaper gives you something of an ultimatum? Witness first-hand what your death has brought to those around you, or remain wandering as a lost soul until you reach the point of insanity. "You can take your life, but what about the people around you? Aren't you taking theirs too?" Emily nearly laughed again, the idea was so ridiculous, but when she went to answer... she found she couldn't respond. What happens to them? ____________________ Author's Note: If you're looking for a sign not to kill yourself, this is it.

Irrevocably damaged 17 year old Henry Cunningham is convinced his life is so far beyond salvageable that he's on the verge of non existence, when he's about to defy gravity. But hope intervenes in the form of an equally broken teenage girl. They were both just lost wrist cutters searching for their purpose in this world; drunk in the idea that love could heal them. And maybe, just maybe they might be right. Join them on their journey as they maneuver through this complicated, unfair series of events that we call life.

Ana Belmonte has fallen in love with Jared O'Hare, a boy she knows she can never have unless she musters the courage to overcome the only obstacle standing in her way. She has already failed and ran away from him once, leaving behind not one, but two shattered hearts. "It's okay," and "I'll find someone better," are two lies she always tells herself in order to ease the pain and after a while she, too, starts to believe in them. Just when Ana thinks she has moved on, Jared returns home for the holidays and all of the effort she has put into forgetting about him ends in vain as she finds herself falling for him all over again. Will Ana be able to experience what true happiness feels like this Christmas, or will she allow her fear to triumph the love she harbors for Jared as it has done in the past?

They've known each other since they were babies. Now, calling them strangers would be an overstatement. Julienne Tan can't recognise the boy she used to confide everything in, and Roman Tan feels like his ex-best friend is slipping further and further away from him. They desperately want to find their way back to each other, even if they are too stubborn to admit it. But with a little fate, luck, and a crazy year, perhaps it's not as impossible as it seems.

I am not who you think I am. I am not who I think I am. I will not let anyone define me. I will define me.
