This is where I'm supposed to introduce myself as the shy, nerdy girl. Then introduce the other protagonist of the story, who's a charismatic hot guy, and tell the story of how we hopelessly fell in love. I wish things happened that way. I wish I had someone to share this story with. But this is my story. This is reality. It will go on, with or without you. **** This story contains strong language. Some would find it offensive. You had been warned.

Today, I'm starting my new life. After all the problems I had with my old friends, I decided to move on. New city, new house, new school, new friends. Wanna know what problems I had with my old friends? Well, you find out soon. I'm just not ready to say it out loud. All I can tell you right now, is that my best friends weren't who I thought they were. And I just hope I find someone that can unbreak my heart.

There are a lot of things you don't really think about until they happen to you. Take rape, for instance. I always thought, "That won't happen to me. I have a boyfriend. I trust him. He would never take advantage of me like that..." I couldn't have been more wrong. Love in this day and age is often confused for manipulation and abuse. The warning signs are here. The things we say will tell us everything that is wrong. You are worth more than what you think you are. It's not your fault. If they tell you otherwise, get out. Burn the bridge. Always remember someone is waiting for you to walk into their life. Someone needs you. Someone loves you. Getting away from all of the wrong people and finding the right ones could save you. I can promise you right now that it saved me. These are the journal entries and selected poems from my first experience of love that left a unpleasant taste in my mouth- quite literally. I am putting this out for the whole world to see because I hope everyone will learn from my experience. People can see. We have no excuses to continue living our lives in ignorance. ...WARNING...

"It's not like you have to save the world." That's what mum told me after dad died. Now I wish someone could tell me that now because it looks like I do have to save the world.

I was living a normal life till one day, a man kidnapped me. I thought he would just be a nice person who stopped me from falling but I realized that im wrong. The worst part is, i think im falling for him but I need to get out of here. As fast as possible. Because he's not a normal kidnapper. He's worse

After a tragic event that left Imani shattered, she and her mother move across the states to start a new life, hoping to escape the shadows of their past. But peace proves hard to find when she meets Isaiah - the quiet, guarded boy next door with a darkness of his own. Their connection is instant, raw, and electric, but neither of them is ready for what's buried beneath the surface. As Imani fights to rebuild herself and Isaiah battles the ghosts that threaten to consume him, they discover that love might not be enough to save them - but it just might be the thing that makes them fight harder to save themselves. "The Boy Next Door" is a gripping, emotionally charged story of trauma, survival, and the kind of love that both heals and hurts. A story about broken souls, found families, and the courage it takes to choose each other - even when the world has taught you not to trust.

"I'd die to see you again." I cried. I'm down on my knees wishing you were here beside me. Tell me what to do and I'll do everything to have you back. But this time It's too late.

Sometimes life don't go the way we planned. Sometimes we end up feeling so low, and alone. Like we're in a dark hole with no one around us, but then suddenly there's a light at the end of the tunnel. And I guess what I'm trying to say is.. You're my light, the one who helped me through the worst time in my life - And for that, I am thankful. I'm thankful that I met you, but I also hate you. I hate what you did to me, because you made me fall in love.. And then my world fell apart once again. [WARNING!! Contains mature themes, and language

We're not supposed to do this. How could you make me feel this way? I'm not supposed to love you.
