I write because i must. When words are written, they cannot be unwritten. When words are said, they cannot be unsaid. Yet when words are spoken and there is no-one to hear them, they are easily forgotten. When words are written, they remain…
I glanced at the long black dress that mum was holding up. “No, I told you, no black!” “Why!” It would look so pretty on you, come on, at least try it on?” My mum pleaded. I rolled my eyes and turned back to the rack. “Ooooh, how’s this?”…
“Honey! Come here and give your mother a cuddle!” I pulled both my bag and Jason into my mothers flat and gave her a hug. I watched over her shoulder as James shook Jason’s hand hand and took both of our bags upstairs to the bedrooms withou…
An hour and a half later, I was sitting curled up next to Jason, watching the countryside of Yorkshire speed past my train window. I had actually packed quite a lot given that I was only going to be gone one night- two at most. I had just w…
I had one. I really did! I couldn’t believe he was right! I still wasn’t ruling out him being crazy, but he was right about this. I had a spot where our shoulders touched, in the shape of a heart. “Raine?” Jason called through my door. “I…
There is always one thing makes you happy when your are sad, makes you appriciate whats important when you cant. Some say its music, some say dance. Some say writing, some say say art. Some say reading, while i say... You.
I didn’t say anything to Jason until we got far enough into the woods that I could let scout off the lead. We had reached a little brook with slightly raised ground on one side. I’d always loved this place; the water made little bubbly nois…
When I woke up the next morning, dad was gone. He’d come in to say goodnight to me before he had left, but I pretended to be asleep so that I didn’t have to explain why I was up so late, thinking about what on earth Jason had to tell me. Or…
When we got to the hospital waiting room I sat as far away from Jason as I could. The man we-sorry, I-, had found was rushed straight to one of the emergency rooms. I’d had no idea who he was, but the town was small enough that the nurses a…
11:30.I lay in bed beside Scout, thinking about my day. Now that he was gone… I still dint know how I felt. I dint have a gaping big hole in my chest, like people do in books, but I dint feel complete either. I felt like when Jason had walk…
I got dressed for school slowly and carefully the next morning, but that was normal for me. I put on a red jumper, showing off my shoulder, a grey skirt, black tights, and red pumps. The skirt was quite short, but it didn’t matter- dad was …
I got home to see my dad sprawled out on the couch in our much-too-small living room, watching rugby, as usual. Our house was more like a cottage really, I suppose it had been converted at some point, ans it had a old exterior and a modern …
The only thing I remember about my dream was that it was a Wednesday. The next day I had exactly the same dream-nothing. All I remember was that, again, it was a Wednesday. My least favourite day of the week. Today. I stepped out of the f…
I could continue with Always the odd one out, Dreams, Or start a new one called it was a Wednesday...? I think i will start my new one, but comment your thoughts!
I can barely contain my excitement as i carefully step from tree root to tree root, trying not to slip on the muddy slope, or get blossoms from the dense trees in my hair, or stub another toe. I fail at all these things, but barely notice i…
Sharryn took me to her office on the top floor of the school. I loved this room, it was small and cosy with beanbags scattered everywhere and wonderful decorative curtains drawn back so that you could see the magnificent veiw over London. Y…
Math test: A farmer plants 7 crops of tomatoes and 3 crops of carrots- what is the probability that his mothers name is Leslie? History test: The American civil war ended in 1865, explain how this had a defining role in the extinction of t…
Thomas- youre late. My teacher, Miss Samuel told me as I took my seat at the back off the classroom. She didnt say it in an accusing way though. She was informing me so I could put a note of it in the front of my homework diary. She had…
The soft white clouds hugged me as i drifted through the sky, oblivious to everything above, below and around me. I didnt need to worry up here- the clouds Would keep me safe. It was so peaceful. Solitary, quiet and beautiful. I was above a…
Barney, my nana's pet cat, died a few months ago from stomach cancer. I loved him so so much, and his was the first death i have had to deal with. Shortly after his death i sent this poem to Nana for her to red to his grave. I'm sad that yo…
The cold air bit my face, and i wrapped my mercifully thick coat even tighter around my imperfect body, not sure if i was trying to block out the cold or the world around me. I refused to even look up until i had escaped the place i have be…
