I Love You, I’m Sorry
Moving on feels like a betrayal to the man who loved me. The man I promised I’d stay no matter what. Choosing to leave him in the past feels like alcohol on a wound. A cigarette to my skin that he called soft and warmed up at any given time. I never intended to break Continue reading

David
I write this on the six month anniversary of my first real break up. Three years not totally down the drain, just thought I’d have extended warranty. No, his real name isn’t David. There is no legitimate David in my life. I write while listening to David by Lorde. The lyric that I ask myself Continue reading

Where’d All The Time Go?
You know how life goes. You say you will never miss high school but once you walk across that stage, nostalgia settles in and suddenly you miss when you were a lovefool sophomore with unbraided hair and dozens of necklaces. You hang out with teachers that made an impact on your life, you tour the Continue reading

girl i’ve always been
I’ve had some questions asked by friends about my eye disease so I thought I’d share my thoughts, feelings, and experiences living with retinitis pigmentosa. I’ll start with my negative feelings. I hate that I can’t see but I hate knowing I can’t see even more. The built up frustration I have towards my eyes Continue reading

Slow Dancing In The Dark
I fought long and hard to maintain the burning hatred I have for you to ultimately realize that I have none. I never knew how to write a story about you. About us. About the hell you put me through. I finally get it. I finally feel it. I cracked the code. I couldn’t write Continue reading

Let Down
I feel like I have officially reached ‘let down’ status. My life is a literal mess. I am a literal mess. I went from being on my knees, begging to be normal, to going out and living life while also experiencing the worst parts of it. Years of begging to be free and happy have Continue reading

Bejweled
After years of being held captive and thrown overboard I have officially washed up on shore. I haven’t posted a story in so long but trust there has been so much going on in my life. The more life goes on the more I realize I could write a book about how hectic it is. Continue reading

Landslide
I know it’s not a big deal. I know my life’s not over. I know there’s still so much I’m going to do. I know I’m young. I know I am loved and supported. I know I have my family. I know I’m going to move forward from this. I can’t help but be negative Continue reading

Peace
For once, I have nothing to say. It has been almost two months since i’ve uploaded a new story. Is this growth? Am I getting old? Am I no longer a kid? Has my frontal lobe fully developed? I feel like for once in my life I am no longer full of so much anger Continue reading

we can’t be friends
I can’t believe I used to have faith in an insipid, immature boy that thinks posing in front of an ambulance is great Instagram content. What was I actually thinking? Did I seriously believe this was the one for me? A boy that still acts the same way he used to in seventh grade? What’s Continue reading
