Our protagonist, Charlie, suffers from depression and sexual abuse at a young age and is not the most cheerfu...
I am in love
With a heart that doesn’t even sense me
With a soul that doesn’t notice me
I am in love
And sometimes it feels as if I am not
It's as if I am here but I am there
As if I am free but can't fly away
As if I am imprisoned but can run free
It's as if I am a tree w...
When I think of the University of Balamand, the aspects that most impress me and fan my desire to immerse myself in this prestigious learning environment are the excellent resources of the University of Balamand. On the surface I think that I am like most young and modern Lebanese girls. I take sch...
We've been together for quite a while since I was in grade six, and now I am about to graduate and you are still with me. My best friend, I love you. You are the most amazing friend ever; you've been with me through everything. Through my ups, and my downs, you are a sincere friend.
You ...
While she was celebrating her friend’s birthday I started decorating our bedroom, making it ready for a spectacular night. A night to remember, because it is the night where I will say the two magic words, “marry me.” I started with removing our beige curtains, and placing new red ones. Then I...
Dear *****,
Every night when I look at the stars, I remember you. Every day when I look at the clouds, I sense you. Every time the wind passes by, I feel you. I know you are still around, though you are far away but part of you is still around. And because of that, because of that tiny portion whi...
All in this together making a team
But alone making a stream
Could this be the end of a great team
Day after day losing one another
Effecting our goals together
Facing the problems that we feared
Getting further apart
Hating one another
Independence became our friend
June was at an end

Dear ****,
It is hard to picture the house without you; it is hard to walk into your room when simply no voice is coming out of it, no life in it just your aroma wandering through its walls. When I walk in I try to imagine you sitting down on your bed trying to wake up, or simply looking at the mi...
Lost from my home for so many years
Finally found it drowned in tears
Witnessing all of that fear
Closed my eyes for a second
And memories flooded
Screaming girls
Crying boys
Yelling men
Pain was what I felt
"halt" was what I said
Moan was what I freed
But no one seemed to n...
Dear ******,
Here I am sitting waiting for you to come, and all i can think about is you. Staring around me, and at everything I stare I see you. I see the couch, the couch we first kissed on, the phone that used to constantly ring. The newspapers that you use to read, the books you hated. Everythi...
Life is unexpected
never expected,
When I look in your eyes
I see the glamour of the unexpected
Bust as days past
I see the expected
You turn around and walk away,
Just like others before you did.
Not because I am ugly,
Not because I am bad,
Just because I ask for more
Than jus...

Floating in the sky
Between the clouds
Humming out loud
Drowning in a pond
Filled with fond
Lost in a forest
Filled with love
Peacefully flying like a dove
My heart is beating
My pulse is racing
I want to live
I want to feel
I want to be
Simply In love…....
The clock struck one , I was late for my interview. I grabbed my purse and coat, and ran downstairs. I stood by the edge of the street and waited for a cab, but for coincidence there were no cabs available, how lucky am I?
I had to run , or actually to walk really fast in high heals, when I reache...
Silently I opened the rooms door, and entered . The room was amazing, the light from the window stroke on the red bed sheet and gave an amazing reflection, as if there were red light bulbs. Red roses filled the room, and white roses curved a heart on the bed, with our picture in it. And a beautiful...
Dear ******,
You might not know me, or might not notice me at least, even though we take biology, English and math together. Or you might notice me as that weird girl in the corner. Well I notice you, I notice you a lot. I stare at you whenever we have a class together, and when you are not aroun...

I was walking along the beach, grieving about my dead my boyfriend, m eyes were tearing and as a tear drop down from my eye, I looked at the moon and said "just give me one more day with him, just one to kiss him one last kiss to tell him I love him, just one day", then I looked back down ...
how cute is he when he stares a the teacher and tries to understand, how he purses his lips and bend his eyebrows, and put his hand under his chin, how cute. Or when he tries to pretend he is awake when he is simply in another world, day dreaming maybe about football or music, look at him , how he ...

I woke up for the first time in three month at 6:30; I went to the bathroom brush my teeth, washed my face and went back to my room. As I entered I looked through the window, the sun was about to rise, I laid on my bed for a couple of minutes thinking about the first day, about the first day of scho...

Everyday when I come back from the grocery store were I work, I see him going out, down the stairs with out even saying hello, or just a hi, or even just a smile, he does nothing. And I, well I am not going to say hello if he does...
There she is, under the apple tree as always , sitting there in the same spot, in her black shirt, black pant, and black shoes, even her hair black as coal, always falling on her shoulder , and across her eyes, I wonder what her eyes look like. There she is sitting and staring at the same photo, I k...
