Where words collide
Random pieces I've written since last year…
magnificentia
I believe you
"I gaze at the little flakelets of snow stuck on the window. Something supremely beautiful it is with its unique geometry and the marvellous combination of the angles. It descends slowly on the slippery ground and melts away. What a deceit the world gives us. I wish I had thought much sooner about leaving. I wish I had plucked up the moral courage before."…
oblivescence
"Happiness is a train. You sit in it for a while, bask in it. Then, step out of it and wait for the next ride, if lucky enough. I got out one stop to early to decathect in order to cope, but so far, I have gotten nowhere."…
deep cut
"I'm not always the seven colours of the rainbow, but the different shades of clouds, sometimes dark and sometimes non-existent."…
breadcrumbs
It was the scent of freshly baked curved croissants that charmed my stomach and drew me into the clutches of the patisserie. The breakfast bread that is most enjoyable on a blue-and-yellow day with a cold beverage, whilst sitting outside the patisserie along the maze of crisscrossing canals where row- and motorboats were parked on the sides and with cycles attached to the rusted railing on the picturesque bridges that add to the history of the city. A soft breeze would blow the leaves further away or into the canals as a hodgepodge of people cycled on the city's cobblestones that were engraved with century old blood...…

If a person doesn't give any consent then no one has the right to infiltrate that person's comfort zone. Simply said, no means no.#FreeYourShorts #newadult…

auroral & meteorite
"You used to be auroral but ended up being a meteorite." A Worth the Fight @beautlies one shot.…
naevus flammeus
"We covet to be perfect, like atoms. They want the noble gas configuration by thieving or doing away with an electron, which we can't. We are simple human beings with cruel heart-burning thoughts -," he flickered his hand to his face to wipe away the cookie crumbs, "- Although, we don't require the change, since we are perfect the way we are. And you're too, but you've got to consider it truthful on your own, so even if I want to be I can't be your helping hand; only you can be. Now, you've got to see what your heart desires." He watched me carefully to see any change of expression on my face, but I stayed neutral. However, my insides were churning by his truthful words as my thoughts were spinning and spinning into a whirlwind of messed up words. "Be the helping hand or the soul-killer," he said before gobbling more cookies.…

why she burned
"I love you," I whisper softly, and I love you more with every heartbeat. Your lips turn into a smile. It's a smile only you can muster; it's the smile you give when I say that. It's that special smile that has butterflies swarming up in the pit of my belly. It's that unique smile, which makes my heart race and my mind come up with incoherent thoughts. You know, our story is one filled with love. A Numb one shot. Edited by Bayan @Justreading1234 !…
picture perfect
In an unusual way they meet and start being best friends. It was October 21st. Now, on that day they have a silly tradition. One they hold onto for years.…
victim 33
"Lydia is dead. But they don't know this yet. It has been weeks since anyone has set eyes on her in this town. At first, people thought she had left as usual and that she would come back. Now, they are concerned, because she normally returns in a few days. However, this time it's significantly different, because she is simply not even gracing this world with her presence anymore. " Edited by Bayan @Justreading1234 ! :)…
love me like I love you
Elian, a guy who has made a stupid mistake in his past, has finally come back to his senses after life -in the form of his best friend Jerome - smacked some sense back into him. He has stopped running for his past; however, is his past also willing to stop running? Kiara had to bear and live with the consequences of the mistake. What will happen when Elian tries to reach out for her? Will she run away this time? Or will she run into his arms?…
trouble
"And then the trouble begins. But how did it begin? Where did it come from? Besides that, the most important question is, how is it going to end? I have been running for a while now. It hurts in my lungs. They ache and burn so much. The flames have taken the way towards my stomach. My body wants to fall over, but I force myself to keep running. I cannot stop. I will not stop. The trouble cannot reach me or it will take me down with it. That shall not happen on my accord, at least I wish it will not happen."…
footsteps
"All the memories I have of you are torn apart and thrown into different parts of my mind. The scattered memories are shown to me. One after the other. Over and over again. So it went, for days, maybe weeks I don't know. I have tried to pick up all the memories and put them away in one place, but they will not budge. They are messing with me."…
carry a torch for you
"I'm falling for you. At least I think I am, but I am not incredibly certain about that. For I have never loved someone or felt like this. This feeling that I have it frightens me a lot. And that may be for the reason that I do not know it or that it is something completely different. This is something that neither my brain nor my heart can apprehend. The sensitive core of my existence is just as lost as my intellectual core. They both try to figure out this thing I am feeling, but keep tripping over the imperceptible hindrances."…
shedding tears
"You know, whenever it rained I used to think that rain was your tears, which you were shedding right at that moment. I would always have the hope that you are somewhere there thinking about me and maybe you are just as sad as I am. Maybe you are also shedding tears like me. Though, I would use my umbrella so your tears wouldn't touch me. I didn't want your tears to touch me, because it would only hurt more. But I was wrong. The only one who was shedding tears was me. I was shedding them for someone who left me, someone who isn't worthy of my tears." Edited by Bayan @Justreading1234 !…
my teddy bear
"Now, I've got these poisonous thoughts, which are destroying me bit by bit. They're painfully drilling holes into my heart, which encourages the avalanche of blood. Eventually, there wouldn't be a heart left; only one concave space in my chest. It would make me physically feel void from the inside out as if there is nothing inside my body. But I'm trying, I'm trying to hold my heart together for her, for our little jelly bean." Edited by Bayan @Justreading1234 !…
soulless shell
"I do not think I can handle the blood of another person on my hands. "There will be more blood on your hands, Miles," Fleur said tauntingly. "As long as you are alive, there will always be new blood." She laughed maniacally. I grabbed my head in my hands, as I screamed at her to stop. Her laughter did not stop, though. I kept hearing it the whole way home." A Tainted Guilt one shot. Edited by Bayan @Justreading1234 !…
