emlex commented on the post, hundred 7 months, 3 weeks ago
She hoped that she would be able to count to a hundred one day. Then, she might be able to understand the enormity of it all and realise that a hundred may have been a million in another universe or nothing at all […]

emlex commented on the post, breath 7 months, 4 weeks ago
With every breath, she knew that time was running out. She knew that the staircase that she had been looking for would disappear. She knew that the place that she could only dream of was slowly fading away. So she […]

emlex commented on the post, help 7 months, 4 weeks ago
But no help ever came. She had to find it herself by jumping from rock to rock over rivers and running up sloping hills. And then, at the top, she’d be able to see everything and begin to understand how the world […]

emlex commented on the post, affairs 8 months ago
The affairs were what stopped her from saying good bye. She’d seen what had happened, and she wanted to be there to stop it, stop it before there were more broken hearts than just her own.

emlex commented on the post, before 8 months ago
Before was a whole different time for her. Before was when she could believe in his smile and before was when she had the heart to return that smile back. After was now and now was a time where smiles were hardly exchanged.

emlex commented on the post, afraid 8 months ago
She didn’t want to be afraid. But there was something about the world that put her off, something about how when she focused on one moment, she realised how small she was. The universe was bigger than her and would always be.

emlex commented on the post, people 8 months ago
There were too many people around her for her to understand. The people were what delayed her and the people were what made her going. And when she stopped amongst the people, she felt so alone.

emlex commented on the post, trial 8 months ago
The trials that faced her were what stopped her from continuing. They were what stopped her from tearing apart the girl they wanted her to be to the girl she really was. Instead, she walked away with the skin of […]

emlex commented on the post, begin 8 months ago
She couldn’t even begin to tell them what had happened. She knew that it would be better if she told them all of the story but she couldn’t bear to part with the event that had made her who she was. She couldn’t […]

Together. Together, the stars swirled together into an endless space which was dominated by their light. The planets joined hands and the moons stopped orbiting. The stars shone on, blinking in the darkness as the […]

emlex commented on the post, alive 8 months, 1 week ago
She was breathing; little wisps of cloud travelled up from her lips in the cold early morning air. Her eyelids fluttered open to see that no one was with her. But she was alive and that was all that mattered. And, […]

emlex commented on the post, blindness 8 months, 1 week ago
The blindness was what made her let the world in. The blindness was what made her finally forget all that she’d seen and accept what was happening now. But unfortunately, the blindness was what also made her turn […]

emlex commented on the post, fried 8 months, 1 week ago
He fried that piece of her heart over and over again, until it was only ash and dust. And then she scattered those remains over the world so that she could love more deeply and widely than she ever had before.

emlex commented on the post, asthma 8 months, 1 week ago
The asthma was what kept her going. She was out of breath but she wanted to go further, push herself, make it to the next line. Even if she collapsed straight after making it to the finish, a part of her would be […]

emlex commented on the post, dysfunctional 8 months, 2 weeks ago
She was dysfunctional, different, not normal. They thought of her as anything but human and did their best to avoid her, But maybe, in another universe, she was normal and they were the messed up ones.

emlex commented on the post, binding 8 months, 2 weeks ago
The binding that held us together was breaking; I knew that. I could feel the fibres falling apart as your eyes became more unfamiliar, and I could feel myself reaching out a hand. But unlike me, you wanted this […]

emlex commented on the post, spa 8 months, 2 weeks ago
She could lie forever in a spa, her skin warm and her breath light in the hot air. She could lie forever there, her skin getting wrinkled as the air faded away. She could lie forever, and only wake up until the […]

emlex commented on the post, flex 8 months, 2 weeks ago
Maybe if you flex my bonds enough you’ll understand why they can’t hold together, and why they can never hold together. Maybe then you’ll understand who I am and, in turn, realise who you are not. Because you are […]

emlex commented on the post, stillness 8 months, 2 weeks ago
The stillness of night time made her wrap herself deeper into the ever-growing hole inside of her. There, it was safe and warm, but it was also where monsters hid in not dark corners, but in corners exposed to light.

emlex commented on the post, miracle 8 months, 3 weeks ago
It was a miracle that she was back. It was a miracle that she could hear my calls above the beating of her heart and the thoughts racing in her mind. It was a miracle that she was alive, and it was a miracle that […]
