“The mask is slipping” I read on the internet at three AM,

It was weird because I could relate,

I could relate so bad,

I feel stuck and everyone’s about to find out.

I don’t care about anyone but you,

The reason of why I hide away,

Why I can’t show and live with the pain,

You’ll want me to share,

But this is only for me to bear.

It’s strange how it all goes away,

When you invade my brain,

But i...

I have to be better,

Stronger,

No room for disappointment,

No time to spare,

I can’t let this happen again.

I have to be on top,

Even if it’s something I can’t control,

This feeling that I’m not doing enough,

Haunts me even if I’m wrong.

When will I stop feeling like this?,

I’ve already given all of me,

All to a lost cause,

My body won’t do its part.

I have to be better,

I already failed once,

...

Another candle for my brother to blow,

Even though they’re my own.

Birthdays last a day,

One I can’t stand,

Because of the aching reminder that even when it’s my day,

He’ll always be first.

Years of trying to stand out,

To share a spot in the light,

I just want my parents to see,

How much they mean to me,

Even I’m not worthy of their love

And I know it’s because I’m not enough.

I try to count the lightbulbs of the streetlight,

Some shine as bright as they can,

Others stay dark even at night.

Take every lightbulb as a memory,

Some are happy,

Some are sad,

But you still try to remember them all.

Every time I see the streetlight,

I think of your eyes,

And how they brought me to life.

The joy in every imperfect strand,

Countless memories in its hand,

We’ve seen the good a...

Second cooling break’s done, 15 minutes left. We’re down by a goal, we gotta win.

The ball’s in the hands of our gk Nai, she passes it to Belle, who sends right in front of me.

This is it, it’s my moment to finally score a goal.

I run with all I have, eyes glued to the ball as my feet make the first touch, sending it forward. I have two girls hot on my heels and I’m running out of breath.

-“Pass, ...

Era ahora o nunca, ya no tenía sentido guardarlo todo si igual no volveré aquí. Necesito decirlo aunque sea una vez y poder por fin soltarlo.

-“Sebastián, necesito que me escuches y no me interrumpas”

-“Que pasa Leti?”. Pregunta, confundido

-“Promételo”, digo mientras extiendo mi mano y mi meñique y el dudosamente entrelaza su meñique con el mío.

Un montón de dudas pasan por mi mente “este es el...

I woke up in the woods, not a single soul in sight, not an animal, a bug, or even a person. All deserted, except for the trees that covered the magical looking forest. The sound of the leafs when the wind roared was the only thing keeping me in reality.

Nothing was normal, but the most strange thing was a mirror in the middle of a somewhat acre of trees and rocks, an ancient looking mirror. It l...

A warm day in a storm full of rain,

I’ve got nothing left to do,

Nothing to play.

I expected the sky to turn grey,

Clouds would come and hide the sun away,

But they didn’t,

Instead they let him warm the hours with his shiny rays,

Bring heat and happiness to every place.

I can go outside,

With no water who’ll cover my eyes,

Maybe I will go and play,

Go with my friends and play a funny game....

I’ve tried to keep this from happening as long as I could. I know she won’t forgive me, I know it. But it’s either her knowing and being away from me or her life.

With my heart in my hands, ready for her to crush it in a million pieces with her disappointment, I try to look for the appropriate words to tell someone you love that you’ve lied to them for the past two years.

-“Hailey i’m sorry”

-“S...

I woke up,

Nothing was wrong,

But nothing was right,

I couldn’t remember how to swear,

neither how to be polite,

Endless blurry memories buried in my mind,

I’m trying to figure out what’s inside,

It has been a long time,

Since I’ve felt alive.

Countless attempts to try and remember,

How things were last September,

We messed with the timeline,

Mistakes that changed us forever.

Ever since I’ve ope...
