Violet Hayes arrives at Weston University determined to keep her head down. As a shy creative writing major, she's far more comfortable hiding behind notebooks and lyrics than standing in front of people. What almost nobody knows is that Violet has an incredible voice-one she refuses to share because singing has always made her feel too exposed. But when an all-girl campus band called **Afterglow** accidentally hears her singing late one night, everything begins to change. As Violet slowly becomes part of the group, she finds herself pulled into a world of music, friendship, late-night rehearsals, and growing attention she never wanted. At the same time, she forms an unexpected connection with Enzo Moretti, the calm and observant captain of the football team who seems to understand her in ways nobody else does. Caught between fear and passion, Violet must decide whether she'll keep hiding behind her lyrics... or finally let herself be heard. i hope you guys enjoy

"Some souls don't meet for the first time-they remember each other through different lifetimes, until they finally get it right." He carries a grief he can't name, as if something once essential to him was taken before he learned its shape. In his dreams, a faceless presence lingers-familiar in a way that unsettles more than it comforts. Time moves on, life rearranges itself, and yet something keeps pulling him toward a future he doesn't understand. Then one day, paths cross in a place meant for new beginnings, where recognition stirs without reason... as if forgetting was never the end of their story.

if I write poems or lyric snippets ill put them here! and maybe writing tips if I ever have any.

*A band on the run. Two souls lost between back roads, borrowed stages, and songs that seem to know them better than they know themselves.* A boy survives a killing, and a knife changes everything. Kid spends his life chasing freedom through every woman, every highway, every late-night song-believing love might finally quiet the voices inside him. Midnight whispers: *Leave. Be free.* Dawn answers: *Stay. Be known.* He wants both. He loses both. Chance only falls in love once, and it destroys him. He disappears into the road, the music, and the spaces between towns, trying to become something strong enough to survive the wreckage. But when their paths collide, love becomes heavier than desire. It becomes a cost neither man is ready to pay. Because on these roads, freedom never comes clean-and staying always asks for a piece of your soul. *The Dead Cowboys* is a slow-burn modern western blending magical realism, found family, ancestral myth, and the melancholy atmosphere of late-night Americana. For readers who love emotional healing dramas, lonely highways, music mythology, and stories that ache long after the last page. #slowburn #foundfamily #magicalrealism #music #americana #roadtrip #melancholy #characterdriven > "Some men learn. The rest become The Dead Cowboys."

This is a story turned into poem about a heart that didn't mean to fall... not yet, not this young- but did anyway. In the street where storms begin. It starts with a shy hello that feels louder than it should, a glance that lingers too long, and a thousand little moments that shift the ground beneath two ordinary lives. As feelings bloom like wildflowers, so do the fears: the 2 a.m. overthinking, the trembling what ifs, the worry of wanting something fragile too much. But somewhere between the chaos and the hush, a soft truth rises. Love, even the young kind, knows how to be brave. An Oath in Young Love is a tender hymn to first promises - not forever written in stone, but vows whispered with shaking hands and honest hearts. A story about choosing someone in the smallest, sweetest ways... and learning that even imperfect love can feel like a new beginning.

Althea has always considered herself unlucky in love. What she never realized was that love had been circling her for years, just slightly out of step. On her thirtieth birthday, the four-man band who shaped her youth arrive late (as always). One confession breaks the careful silence they've kept for years, forcing the past into the present and cracking open a decade of almosts. They chose friendship because it was safer. They stayed professional because it was necessary. And sometimes... life, simply and tragically, got in the way.

Thea came to Halcyon Sound to work. To learn. To stay invisible. Ethan doesn't believe in easy chances. He pushes people until they either break or become something better. She wasn't supposed to stand out.She definitely wasn't supposed to matter. But one night changes everything. Now she's caught between ambition and something far more dangerous, a connection she doesn't understand, with someone who never lets anyone get close. Because in a place where pressure builds people and destroys them just as easily, caring might be the one mistake neither of them can afford.

When Worlds Collide.

Poems for the broken souls on sleepless nights, who are working on piecing their hearts back together, bit by bit, day after day.

"SHUT UP YOUR MOUTH." Yan ang first words sakin ni Ryleight D. Velasco. Second words niya? "PARA KANG PAGONG." Now he's my partner in FBS. Ako si Krishna. TVL student sa Vermillion Heights Academy. Daily routine ko: Maglinis, magluto, maghugas ng pinggan... at makipag-away kay Ryleight. Mission ko: Makapasa sa FBS nang walang binabasag na baso. Problem ko: Baka puso ko ang mabasag. Sabi nila, the way to a man's heart is through his stomach. Paano kung galit na galit yung man? At ako yung magluluto? Warning: Contains too much banter, unexpected kilig, and FBS student trauma.
