How I feel.
This is everything I went through before finally understanding that it wasn't worth anything, to you or to me.…

Everybody always told me that life was made of compromises and that not everything was always perfect. When you have no experience with life, you're forced to believe everything you're told. That was until I met Ashley, two years ago. She made me reconsider my cynicism, at least at the beginning. I had quit everything when I met her, just so I could spend time with her. I became a retail worker, working long hours almost everyday to pay the rent we needed to live together. I built a routine I became sick and ashamed of. And after two years, I realised that what my parents had told me was true: nothing was perfect, but it didn't mean it wasn't worth putting efforts into.(This story is inspired by Hozier's song Cherry Wine, and it's going to be in Andrew's point of view.)…
Life has a funny way of building up and changing people. That's when they begin to try and escape reality. Different ways creating different paths which might meet at some point. However, roads are just that, and there's always the tempting choice to go backwards and be what we used to be.…
There are times when you don't know what to think or what to do. I guess after being so disappointed and left by the one person you thought could never leave you, you tend to lose the ability to react logically. I know for a fact that I don't act like myself anymore, but I didn't seem to be able to change that. We often get told not to drink too much, but when everything you think about when sober is how pointless everything is, you can be considered as an exception. At least, I think it's better if I can't constantly think about her and how I missed her touch, her words, everything when really, she also ruined me. We're all broken. Sometimes, it's just the reality of life hitting you too hard, sometimes it's someone breaking you. Whatever the cause, we all struggle to live and move on. I just wish I wasn't so alone through this and that someone could help me live with myself.…
I was lonely. After losing the one person that felt so important to you, you don't want to risk to lose another one, so you tend to push everybody away. That way, it'd be easier not to be hurt or to hurt anyone again. I had decided to live alone, and I honestly don't think I regret it. But when you see someone who seems to be what you are, don't you feel the temptation to talk to them so you could get the company you've grown to miss? And what about somebody that looks the exact opposite of yourself? Don't you want to know their story? I had made a lot of mistakes in my life. Getting close to people was definitely my worst one.…
Maybe I was desperate and wanted help but stayed silent because I hated attention. Or maybe was it because I didn't want to see that nobody cared? I don't know. I don't want to know.I might have become something I never thought I'd turn out to be. Something I had promised myself to never become : a shadow of myself.Maybe, just maybe, all of this was just a nightmare and I'd wake up soon."I couldn't see a thing till I shut my eyes.I never knew a thing till I lost my mind.I would sell my soul to know it all,but I held the keys all this time."--------------------(The story is going to be in Oli's point of view.)…
Meeting someone could change your views about everything you thought you knew about yourself and the world. Or it could be completely meaningless.…
Everybody has scars. Some can be seen, others can't. Some are from childhood memories, others from self-destruction.People eventually leave. It breaks us. It broke Alex when his girlfriend Jenifer left. He didn't think he could keep on living knowing that he could have prevented it. But giving up isn't always up to him.…
