Love In Betrayal

Chapter 1: Caleb I have vague memories of a better world, running through sunflower fields with my sister (Lilac) , eating ice cream on a scorching night, the good things that placate my thoughts never last long. After a while hope faded from me like a bleeding wound, now no more than a scar. When sickness began to ravage the streets and the sun became no more than a yellow speck in the sky my hopes disintegrated, gone to the wind they were. My Mother and Lilac were executed for wanting to fix things, at the time Lilac was fifteen and I was...

Trapped At The Altar (will continue if this story gets 6 likes)

"IT'S MY WEDDING DAY GET DOWN HERE MIKE!" I scream at my little brother, he will NOT be missing my wedding day to play Fortnight with child predators. "I DON'T PLAY WITH CHILD PREDATORS Chelsea!" He screams back. He totally does though, voice chat "glitch's" aren't tricking anyone and the people he plays with are definitely not normal. He's been annoying FOREVER but lately it's been really bad, either I matured or he became immature... Ever since I moved out to act in plays around the world so much has happened. Now I'm back for the wedding ...

The Ballad Of The Dead (GO INTO READ MODE)

I see your grave I see your sorrow I saw you die Don't tell me why It was me Your blood soaked The carpet floor The knife stuck in your head These images plague me Even though you are long dead I saw them kill you On that floor you sleep You were in too deep But here I am Mourning you the lost I miss the way it used to be Before you died They say it was peaceful for you I know the truth I saw the crime I miss you But you are dead In a box of wood Watching the world From your star up above Waiting for more to join you Under the ground When yo...

Blow (need to go into read mode for punctuation)

Dandelions blow Children let them go Into the air they fly Yet I wonder why Those children do not cry For they lose there wishes In each blow No it seems they believe That someone will retrieve The wishes they let go So they lose their thoughts Their wants Their wishes In each blow Oh mothers don't let them go Going Going Gone to the wind And all this happened in one blow A blow that forfeited happiness A blow that forfeited peace Don't let go Don't let them fly away like geese The world needs love The world needs power Don't let them go in ...

Crashing Down (must go into read story mode for the punctuation to be fixed)

Crashing Down By. Heather Jones One man sent my life crashing down so I destroyed his Prologue I stare into space, afraid of reality. When my life came crashing down I cried but now it seems as if all the tears are gone, dried up like a well in summer. I wish the tears would come, they would be a welcome distraction from the truth. The truth is what hurts, not the loss but the fact that I was the one that let it happen. My parents used to say, "you don't know you're being played, tell the players long gone." My players long gone and with t...
