helpp...
would you read a book about a group of teenagers all in the most famous city in the entire world, including:
-two royal brothers who rule the city side by side
-a poison tester who knows the kingdom better than anybody
-two infiltrators intent on pulling a heist
-three visiting royal siblings who have come with secrets aplenty
the only problem is: everything about them that you know, is a lie
nothing is as it seems, betrayals are afoot and so are alliances. 
someones plotting to bring the kingdom to it’s knees. the only question is: who?

“It’s raining let’s go outside” “look out the window, the moon is beautiful” “I finally read the books you’ve been talking so much about, I loved it” “wait stand there , the lighting is amazing” “<3” “I bought you this book, I think you might like it” “oh my, look at all the stars” “let’s go to a bookstore” “I got us some coffee” “here, listen to this” “let’s make a playlist” “this is a horrible idea. I’m in”

i’m tired of begging for ur friendship, banging on your door like a desperate outcast. i deserve more than your spare bit of change and leftovers
i deserve more than your minimum.

I'm definitely a romantic, I don't think life is really worth all the pain and effort and struggling if you don't have somebody that you love very much.

I have spent so much of my life bottling up every thought, emotion, opinion, and just me, that I’m honestly so ready to spill out everything to someone. Read my poetry. Read my goddamn journal. Just someone understand me finally, please

remember 
I’m not sure how
To remember you
With clenched fists
Or a butterfly tattoo
What should I recall?
How your from Tenesse?
And how hard you
Tried to love me?
Do I remember the
Romance books you read
Or the doubts, fear,
Nausea and dread
When I think of you
Do I remember your band?
Or should I remember
How you lifted your hand?
Am I supposed to
Remember your laugh
Or the dark bruise
On my calf?
On the days where
You are all I see
Should I remember
The flowers or the debris
Should I see light,
And how you tried your hardest
Or how it never was enough
And it ended in darkness
So when I’m drunk and alone
And nowhere near you
Should I remember the monster?
Or the man I thought I knew?

writing should be fun.
make oc playlists. spend hours on moodboards that have no purpose. write self-indulgent fluff that’s never going to be published. scribble three lines of poetry in the back of your history notebook. draw fanart of your own characters. write stupid dialogue that your publishers might hate. start new wips that you might never finish but write those three chapters that make you happy because if you don’t write them, who else will?
writing shouldn’t always be about “will publishers like this” or “i have to reach this word count” or “how do i get the most likes”.
have fun with your writing.

drowning
I saw you last week
At the grocery store
We used to shop together
I guess not anymore
You looked at me,
And began to laugh
And it felt like that sound
Would cut me in half
When I looked at you
All I saw was blood
Like all those all old scars
Opened in a flood
I remember it all
Even when I tried to forget
I can still recall
Every single regret
You were afraid of heights,
You painted and you drew,
You always wore a watch
And your eyes were ocean blue
I still see beach waves
Everytime I blink,
Picture that godamn color
Till I can’t even think
So when you looked
And laughed at me,
All I remembered is
Drowning in that sea
And I hate that you’re still there,
Still haunting my dreams,
I hate that I gave you the power
To rip me apart at the seams
So I stood there
In the middle the aisle
Fighting to swim
And choking back bile
You looked happy
Like you’d never been better
And here I was,
Wearing your old sweater
And I’ll never forgive you
For stealing my breath
But thank god you dropped me
Before I choked to death
Because you thought
You were damning me
By cutting the rope
By setting me free
See if you look past
The rust and chains
You’ll see a girl with
Vengence in her viens
Sot darling, think again,
Make no mistake
You unleashed a monster
Who won’t rest till you break

i saw you at the supermarket last week. its weird to think that two souls who collided so hard and so fast could walk past each other like strangers only months later. yet- there you were, picking up frozen lasagne, barely glancing at me. 
i always thought you hated lasagne, or maybe you just hated eating it with me.

I once asked my father how he survived so long in this world and he told me that if you want to make it past twenty without any sort of crutch you have to act like you constantly have a target on your back and every single person, even those you love, carry knives of varying sizes.
I told him that that was a terrible way to live.
And he said, ‘You didn’t ask me how I lived, darling, you asked how I survived.’

‘I think in order to feel that I’m good enough for you, I have to let go of you first. But the question is, how do I drop you without loosing me?’

'It makes me a terrible person but I want to know that I’ve made an impact on you. I want to know that I’m woven into the very fabric of your being. I want to have to the safety net of knowing that you would break without me.'

i’m calling it- the best part about being a writer is you can seek revenge against the bitchy souls of the earth by using their name for your worst character
like maybe you wanna think twice before laughing at my basic ass playlist again, janet. else i might just immortalise u in gruesome ink
