Lisa:You’ve been on your phone for hours. Can we just talk?

Mark:We talk all the time. What now?

Lisa:I don’t feel like you see me anymore.

Mark:Here we go again. Why is everything always a problem with you?

A heart, a ravaged, gilded cage,
Holds beauty born from shadowed rage.
A twisted rose, with thorns entwined,
A love that's fierce yet subtly unkind.

Pale moonbeams kiss a fractured face,

She always thought that when she gets her powers, she wo...

Dear Diary,

Tuesday 17th March 2009,

As I awoke, everything felt distorted. I was lost. I didn't know where I was nor what was going on. I just wanted to go home but something stopped me, a silhouette grasped onto me not wanting to let go, I tried to push myself away but their grip got tighter, I was trapped. I couldn't breathe, my body felt heavy. Then I collapsed losing all the weight that ha...

As the moon shone brightly, the lanterns reflecting off the empty waters and the lonely tree slowly submerging underneath, no one knew that life would die that morning.

But just a few more hours and it's the end, let's not think about that much, but the things we lov...
