why am i invisible

when your face is so beautible

i give you a kiss

but my face missed

because i am not seen

i can even see it when i’m peen

wish i could see my hands

all i can see is all these lands

-strattin durant...

With my eyes still closed,

I become conscious again.

Something holds my tight.

My sore eyes open.

I look up at this stranger.

His ocean eyes gaze

Softly at me. My

head pounded and I cried out

in pain. I brought my

hands to my head and

felt a wet substance. I knew

it was blood. What was

going on? Where even

was I? I gazed at the man.

He started speaking,

“Carley, It’s ok.

They are coming ...

139 feet.

I was so close. The magical ink on my hand told me where to go. I kept walking. Maybe he was looking for me too? My heart beating faster. I kept my eyes on the changing numbers on my hand.

55 feet

54 feet

53 feet

52 feet

I started running. Keeping my eyes on the blur of numbers. I was incredibly close. Compared to last week. When my wrist read, “9,349,035, feet” All my friends had the...

She wrapped her soft arms around my cold body. Tears falling from her eyes again. I wanted to hug her back. I was just a stuffed dog. Fake fur, cotton inside, two small black eyes.

Charlotte had lost everything in her. Her hope, her happiness, and her will to live. All she felt she had was me. A stuffed, fake, worthless, limp dog. But late at night, when the school day has drained almost all the...

He left me.

12:59 AM.

The only person I’ve ever loved.

Justus Aaron Gunderson.

I felt like I was going to die to.

My heart pounding.

Dropping to my legs and up again.

My breathing was shaken.

Maybe from crying.

Maybe cause I was dying.

I wish I was.

I could be with him.

The night he was buried.

I was glued there.

Never moved.

Never did.

Never could.

Never will.

I’ll see you soon....

I need a breath,

A beat in my heart,

A chance to skip death,

It feels that way,

When we are apart,

Sky a dark, dark grey,

I cry and wait,

And don’t want to lay,

Forever trapped,

While you are away,

When you come home,

I cry out relieved,

For now I am free,

Of myself....

She was beautiful. Eyes like a rainy day with dappled sunshine. Hair like a fiery sunset. Face rosey, timid, and sweet. She was almost hypnotizing. I followed her. Held her hand through the dark woods. She led me. I was 19 and this small girl led me. I don’t know how she found me. I’ve forgotten my entire life. My beautiful name, Ohara. Didn’t sound like it fit me. I forgot my parents, my new husb...

‘Three cups of “st”’

What? What’s st?

I read the next ingredient.

‘Six tablespoons of “in”

I think this is one huge typo.

The rest was like this,

‘Four ounces of “ai”

One cup of “do”

10 tablespoons of “d” Seven minutes of “th” Nine cups of “be” Five ounces of “rs” Two teaspoons of “wn” Eight handfuls of “e”’

A couple weeks later I’m in my mansion. The treasure was easy to find once I knew th...

Walking to my old house,

Middle of the desert,

Memories flooding my brain,

Like the sand flooded my house,

All those years ago,

I tried to forget,

I wanted to forget,

I never have and never will,

That’s why I’m coming back,

To face my fear,

On the night my family was lost....

We all knew it was to come. It’s seemed unreal. It was but I just couldn’t believe it. No one could.

They were coming.

Bentley and I watched on the roof at their ship landed. I held his shaking hands. I told him to breath. I would keep him safe. As my boyfriend and I sat on top of our roof the world ended. Bentley was having a panic attack which made this a lot worse. He was greedily gasping in...
