Some Things You Can't Tell (OctPoWriMo2015-Day 7)

They said to stay awayYou'll be no good for each otherNeither of us listened that dayNow we wouldn't choose another 
They listed the reasons whyAired out your dirty laundryBut I didn't bat an eyeThat's when they came after me
But you kept still and stayedAnd that made me smileWe stopped caring what they say5 years...I think we lasted a while
Much longer than they thoughtTurns out we fit wellThey never found the heartache that they soughtI guess some things you just can't tell...

Freedom Isn'tWhat I need It's more than a Necessity, I

Not Enough (OctPoWriMo2015-Day 5)

Screaming and fighting isn't enough to keep me away from youCrying and hard feelings aren't strong enough to stop this feelingBecause it's always you I run to, no matter what you doAs much as I hate you, there's always a feeling of love I'm concealing
Heartbreak and discomfort doesn't stop our world from going roundPainful words and blows won't kill our momentsBecause I hear so much even when you don't make a soundWhen you're too angry to speak, you're never my opponent
Because this is what tru...

Peyton Hayley: No Need to Catch Me (I'm Not Falling)-Short Story

It's been a while since I wrote a short story based on the characters from my book series (RED Tragedies aka A Tragic Heart series) but tonight I'm giving you another short story. This one is from the POV of Peyton Hayley (Peyton and Taylor's daughter). If it were to fit into a book it would be part of RED (Book 2). It's a short scene between her, Alex and Jackson.

Listen to "Throwing Punches" by Paramore on repeat while reading:

It Was All A Dream (OctPoWriMo2015-Day 4)

I was there and so were youWe had it all and no one had to approveI owned my life and you owned yoursIt was magical and we were our own cure
Everything was where it belongedI was happy and you came alongNot a thing was out of placeWe owned it all, our time and space
But things are rarely what they seemIt was time to wake up, it was all a dreamI long for a world where that feeling can be realBut that dream hit me hard, I need time to heal
There needs to be a world with simple joy and magicThere's...

Waiting...(OctPoWriMo2015-Day 3)

I'm sitting here waitingJust waiting for something to happenI showed up, I fought my way hereDid the opportunity disappear?Did I blink and miss it?I thought this was it, the perfect fit
"Showing up is half the battle"That's what they always sayShow up and get on the saddleRide it for what it's worthBut it ain't much hereIt's not much there...
I thought waiting may not be enoughBut they say waiting makes you toughIt gives you thicker skinBut I learned it's not about the outside but what's within...

I Just Need You To Hit Me (OctPoWriMo2015-Day 2)

It was dark outsideNot a light in sightI just wanted you to hit me with all your mightDo something, say somethingDon't be a mannequinIt was either sink or swim
I egged you onI instigated as the night fadedI just needed you to hit me, make me jadedI'm laughing at youI'm twisting your armJust hit me, do me some harm
You finally did itI acted like it didn't hurt, wiped the blood with my shirtBut this is foreplay for me because I always like to flirtBefore I get into itBefore I enjoy it
I just need...

There's Something In The Clouds Tonight... (OctPoWriMo2015-Day 1)

The sky is darkBut the night is lightThere's something in the clouds tonightCan't tell what it isOr what I want out of lifeBut there's something in the clouds tonightThat makes me think I can be moreIt makes me dream 'til my mind is soreBut I can't see past my initial sightStill, there's something in the clouds tonightThe wind is getting icyAnd the air is colder, dearSometimes I wish my ambitions would disappearFor some reason, this evening I want them to stayMaybe I can keep them into the ne...

Character Profile for Turn It Off: Sophia Lawson

It's another week which means I got another character profile from Turn It Off. I decided to do one on Sophia because she's pretty important in Turn It Off even though she's only in it for a short amount of time. Back in July, I also wrote a short story based on her past life called Runaway. You can view that here: http://sellecameron.blogspot.com/2015/07/sophia-runaway-short-story.html .

In the book, Sophia is one of Peyton's many girls and she's the one who gets him deep into his troubled wa...
