Why I Don't Text Old Friends
Not talking to my friends has had some tremendous upsides in these past 2 years and I write that with the loftiest tone I can muster. Of course, there are days I want to hear the collective "HEY!" when I walk up a casual hangout spot's bar, but that's only once every six months and the feeling is fleeting.

Love and Loss
Love and loss go hand-in-hand. Even ask the Earth, for she has fallen in love with the moon, yet never gets to be remotely close to him. She watches him as he awakens to take over the sky, while she waits for dawn to peek through. Life and Death have been in love for as long as the world has been intact. Life sacrifices so much for Death. Everything in her possession is handed over to Death at some point, and she has no say in when they’re to be given up. But he cherishes her bearings, keeping every single last one of the lives she’s given him. Life and Death however, will never truly be one.

The True Feeling of a Teen Heartbreak
I am a nineteen year old girl who is currently experiencing a heart break. Now many people will read this and say, "You don't even know what love is." My question is, who are you to tell me how I feel? My mother would always tell me, "Be the apple at the top of the tree and if someone is worthy enough, they will climb to the top." If you're smart enough, that metaphor will sit very well with you.

The Three Kings
Prologue: Ordinary People “Heroes are ordinary people who make themselves extraordinary.” -Gerard Way ♛ The night howled with strong gusts of wind, threatening to knock over trees that had been standing strong for decades. Despite the weather, a boy no older than thirteen took cover behind a hedge as another burst of wind shook the branches above him. He untied a sweatshirt from around his waist so that it wouldn’t drag in the dirt, then got down on one knee.
