Assumptions

“I trusted you!” I yell. “Why?” My voice lowers a few pitches and tears begin to roll down my face. “Just why?” I don’t even give her a chance to respond before I turn around and walk out. Yesterday my best friend, my sister in everything but blood, betrayed me.

This story started a few months back when I developed a crush on a guy in one of my classes. Charlie’s a junior, a year older than us. O...

I’ve Got You

EL ♡︎

2 min read

I hold her hand tight, and tell her that I’ll never let go. She cries on my shoulder for a few more minutes before sniffing and saying “I just really love him. And to…well do what he did…” The reminder that he’s gone sents her into a fresh bout of tears. I hate to think about how it must have felt when her boyfriend of two years left in the middle in the night with nothing but a note saying that i...

Hidden

Butterflies show what they want in order to blend in

They hide their true beauty within, unseen except for brief flashes of time

Only when they feel safe enough to show their true selves

They carry something important to the survival of others

But hide for the survival of themselves

Every butterfly is different, never the exact same as a fellow

Their pattens might resemble another

They might eve...

White Mocha

Imagine this as a note that got delivered with a nice warm (or iced) white mocha to work or school.

You are a white mocha. So sweet and familiar, but I’m still amazed every time I get to enjoy a taste. Something I’ve known of for years, but only started getting to understand for myself a little while back. The blend of energizing caffeine, d...

Comfortable

I don’t go a day without it

It’s impossibly ugly

But it’s grown on me

Now, it’s what I know

Now, I’m comfortable in it

Because it is familiar

No matter the day

Good bad or in between

I slip it on before I do anything else

Before I go down to breakfast or brush my teeth

Before I let anyone see me

Because it makes me comfortable

This thing that I put on?

It is a mindset, telling me

That no one c...

Betrayal

“It’s time to begin getting ready for dinner m’lady.” my maid Madelyne says. I turn away from the book I was reading. “Okay.” I say and stand up.

On my way down to the dinning room, Prince Capricum catches up to me in the hall. “Hello Drisela. What a surprise to see you here.” I put on a look of shock. “Oh I know. It’s not like I don’t walk this way to dinner every day.” He chuckles. “My I...

Marigold

You’re so little

So tiny

Yet somehow,

You’ve already managed to take my heart captive

As you climb up into my lap

Getting small tufts of fur everywhere

I smile at you

And you smile back

Tongue lolling out the side of your mouth

You’re so adorable

So cute

And now,

I know that I am all yours

And you are all mine,

Sweet pup

My Marigold...

Perfection was always Impossible

EL ♡︎

1 min read

My whole life it’s been one thing after another. Getting perfect grades in school, getting into the perfect college, landing the perfect job, staying the perfect weight, wearing the perfect things, being the perfect daughter, the perfect girlfriend. I never stopped striving to be perfect.

Today I did something new. I went to a cafe I’ve been dying to try ever since I moved here, but never did be...

Lonely

A lone traveler

His goods are all he has

He lost everything else years ago

Now he’s making a pilgrimage

Back to the place of his birth

The horse he raised from a mare

The donkey he bought before his trip

All he has is on his back and in his saddlebag

As he rides back home

At last...

Not easy

EL ♡︎

Failing

It’s not a choice

But trying again is

Trust

It’s not easy

But something you have to work towards

Fear

It’s something you face

But not something you have

to give power over you

Peace

It’s free

But it can’t exist

at the same time as anxiety

Crying

It’s not embarrassing

But you being strong

by letting the emotion out

Comfort

It’s sometimes hard to gain

But we take it for granted
