Do You Like The Rain?

Aster

“ Do you like the rain? “

She asks, as we look outside the window of the cafe.

“ Yes, I do like the rain. Even though my dog drowned in it. “

“ oh. Im sorry. Do you like hot summers? “

“ Yes, even though a fire caused by pollution burned down my home. “

“ Oh. Well then do you like winters? “

“ Yes, even though my father died of frostbite when we got lost in the mountains during winter. “

“ O...

Amelia took a deep breath, and pushed open the door to her 20-year high school reunion.

Her hand trembled as she placed it on the brass door knob leading to her high schools PE room, which was also used for prom a few days ago.

“ deep breaths, Amelia. Do it for him. “

She forced herself to turn the doorknob and open the door.

One step.

Two steps.

Amelia looked around.

Everything looked ex...

The Girl In The Mirror

“ i don’t want to be here anymore “

I say to the girl in the mirror.

“ I know “

She replies.

I tear out two pieces of paper from my notebook. On one I write dear mom, on the other dear dad.

Dear mom,

You were a good person.

You did your best. You were enough. It wasn’t your fault.

I was the one who wasn’t enough.

Dear dad,

I love you. Take care of mom. Take out all the stuff from my room...

Not Really The Prompt

Pain, suffocating gripping at my heart dragging it down in an endless abiss.

Tears flow from my heart but my eyes are dry.

I want to cry. I can’t.

It feels as if I were merely a spectator as life walks past and I feel useless. As if the world is coming in and I can’t do anything to stop its

And the best part is, I don’t even care. Not anymore....

I’ll Keep Watching You Smile.

I never thought this would happen.

I’ve never fallen for anyone.

Ever.

But every single time I think about you,

I blush and it’s a complete disaster.

You’re able to melt away

The ice cold barrier

surrounding my heart.

When I see you smile,

It’s like the sun has come out for the very first time in ages.

And that happens every time.

No matter how much I’ve looked at you.

My greatest desire w...

Another Expert From A Broken Soldiers Diary

Aster

All I see is red before me. A red so deep I could sink into it.

Smell. The smell of death, rotting bodies around me and no exit from them.

The bitter - sweet taste of blood invades my mouth, finding shelter under my tongue and on my lips.

Silence. I cant even hear the rustling of leaves.

I hold the hand of my dead best friend, her motionless body lying pavement. And a thousand others next to h...

Diary’s Of A Broken Soldier

I was a fighter.

I am a soldier.

I will be a survivor.

The battles I fought,

The war I thought was finished,

The peace I had so hoped for,

Gone.

No, it hadn’t disappeared.

Something can’t disappear if it was never there.

Only now I realise.

But oh,

How beautiful was the feeling I had when I thought,

That all that time I fought had been for a reason,

For a good outcome.

But oh, how tragic,

Tears Will Pierce Your Flesh.

Aster

Tears.

Small drops of water.

But oh, they can do so much.

Because in those little drops of water

Hide tiny shards of glass,

That will pierce your flesh.

Gather desperation

And

Loneliness.

And no matter how small,

They will make you bleed.

The only thing scarier than tears, though, is when they stop falling....

It Was All Her.

I wake up, confused and shaken.

‘ where am I? ‘

I look at my surroundings. A road. A car. No street lights.

‘ Wait? I’m not not dead? ‘

Suddenly I remember the sound of the car horn and people shouting at me to move out of the way. I also remember the horrified look on the face of the woman that was in the car and the indifferent one of the man just before they crashed into me.

I see police a...

No.

No no no no no.

Lies.

She tells lies.

Nothing else.

Don’t

Don’t believe her

Please

Don’t leave me

Please

Please.

Please your different

You care.

Right?

What she says isn’t true.

Rumours spread.

Rumours

Do you care?

I can’t take it anymore.

My ears are bleeding

So many words

So many lies

I can’t

Stop

Stop ...
