The Accident
5. 4. 3. 2. 1. The sound of the gun. My feet pushing off the platform and diving into the water, my legs pressed together tightly, and for a sliver of a moment, I feel like a mermaid, and I feel my worries fading away.

World War Three
I haven't eaten for three days. World war three is about to start. My hearts depressed. My head's a mess. So many thoughts jumbled it's getting hard for me to single out just one.

Words Can Kill

Home
I roll over in bed, my sheets getting tangled up around my ankles as I kick them away from me, the heat becoming too much for me to bare, as I sit up in bed and run my hand through my hair, brushing the damp strands stuck to my forehead away from my face, I pick up my phone seeing that it is 6:08am, the sun will be rising soon, it's February eighteenth today, the date weighing heavy on my heart.

Shattered
I stand staring down at the person who I thought to be my friend, the only person who I believed I could trust, but they had tried to destroy me, tried to end my life, but now the shoe is on the other foot, because I am the one holding the gun.
