LOM Chapter 7: At What Price?
Living at Aaron's was like a vacation in paradise
He let me wake up on my own
Not that I am a huge sleeper
Usually, I always wake up early, especially when I am at a house that wasn't my own
But I had to get used to it
Because the house that was my own, was gone forever
Whenever I woke up, there was breakfast for me
Either on the table or in the fridge
For the first week, it was pretty extravagant
Eggs, Pancakes, bagels with cream cheese and jam
" You don't have to go through all this trouble." I told him one morning
Don't get me wrong it was a nice gesture, and I loved food
But did I really deserve this?
At what price did an alleged child

No more Chances
Why must you haunt my mind
When I never see your face?
Why must you lurk in my thoughts
When It was so long ago?
We have lives of our own
And yet, we are chained to each other
Like a new born goose
I have imprinted you in my mind
The sun has set on our time together
Yet I remember the time
When there was no other
We had a chance, you and I
But alas, always powerless to time
Though we both are in a happy state
I can’t help but think
What if?
No more chances for you and me
Just as we always knew it would be
But I can’t help but think how it would have been
If we took a chance when our love began
Maybe it would have ended in
When he's gone, I feel numb
Detached
Consumed by life's events
Driven by life's misery
And surrounded by life's mysteries.
I know I will see him again.
But when?
How long must time pass?
How long is soon?
I see him, and I fall
Away from myself
Away from what I've felt
Into his arms
They feel so warm
So strong
I feel powerless to time
We lay there without words
Only silence as I hold onto my fantasy
Before he's gone again.
Must you really go?
You know I have to.
But I won't see you.
You will. Soon.
You promise?
Promise.
I'll hear from you?
Yes.
I need you.
I know.
It doesn't matter what I say.
It always ends the same.
Time wins, and to

Clarissa VS. Victoria
It was morning
Clarissa walked out of the car, with her eyelids drooping
Waking up early for this class was really weighing down on her
It had been worth it when she and Kun were getting along
And while things were better now than they were before,
She still felt upset
As she walked to the front door, something caught her eye
She saw a girl slightly older than her
Clarissa knew her face well enough to recognize her, even though she had only seen her once.
"What are you doing here?" She heard herself ask
Clarissa knew she should stay away
She knew she shouldn't intervene
But all the voices that told her to stop just urged her forwa
For so long....... by togepishadowhunter16, literature
Literature
For so long.......
For so long, I have thought, what am I doing?
For so long I've asked, what is this life?
For so long, I've wondered
I've pondered
What do I feel?
Is this right?
Does it make me happy?
These choices I've made?
If I for once, think of myself, does it make me selfish?
If I consider another opinion, does it make me a traitor?
If I make one complaint that others don't understand, does it make my feelings less insignificant?
If the past is gone, does it not matter?
Do the feelings I had, the feelings I still have….. Create any meaning?
If the past doesn't matter, do the feelings still matter?
For so long, I've worked for the approv

From Red to Yellow
Somehow, Clarissa made it through the day
She saw Kun
At lunch
And of course after school
But she didn't talk to him
She couldn't
At least not now
When she got home, she was ancy
His words still rang through her head
"I never meant to hurt you"
"Feelings stregthen and fade, but they never go away"
And yet, none of it mattered, because all she felt was pure anger
Dissapointment
Confusion
And hurt
She hadn't felt like this in a long time
She grabbed a pencil and her notebook
And before she knew what she was doing, she was writing
The words came out on the page
And so did all her emotions
By the end of the night, she had a w

Clarissa and Kun: Iceberg Part Two
Clarissa left as soon as she could
She walked into the school
Put stuff in her locker and went on
Trying to forget what she just saw
It wasn't real
It couldn't have been real
He had just told her he liked her
Had he been lying?
She sat on a bench, trying to clear her head
There was no way she could be in their hallway alone
It was only 6:30
Time ticked by slowly
As Clarissa's head spun in circles
Somehow, she found the strength to get up and go to class
By the time class started, Kun had come to the classroom
He seemed quiet
Clarissa could tell something had happened
Kun wrote on a piece of paper
After a while, he showed it

Clarissa and Kun: The Iceberg
It was the next morning
Clarissa hadn't stopped thinking
What she remembered of the scene played in her head
"Can this be true?" she thought
"Does he really like me?
What's supposed to happen now?
Has our friendship changed?
I like him, and now he likes me
But what does all this mean?"
By the time Clarissa got to school, she thought it all out.
When Kun had told her of his feelings, she had been speechless
She still didn't know what to think, but there was one thing she did know
She liked Kun
She wasn't sure what a relationship was like
Maybe they could figure it out together
Maybe this was a beginning
As Clarissa walked to the door, she

By now, it was the middle of April
The sun was shining
Flowers were decorating the earth
It was after school
"I'm going to tell her today." Kun thought
"I'm going to tell her today..... but how do I say it?"
As the two walked,they started with casual conversation
School
Work
The usual laughs and giggle
"Maybe I shouldn't tell her," He thought. "Things are perfect just the way they are, just like this..."
But none of those thoughts in his head came out of his mouth
"Clarissa, I seem to have grown feelings for you."
Clarissa stared at him, confused. " Are you saying you like me?"
Kun sighed, "Yes."
"For how long?" She asked
"How long

Clarissa and Kun: In the Rain
One morning, the sky was gray
Rain was sprinkling as Clarissa got out of the car to meet Kun.
Clarissa simled as they exchanged greetings and hugs
"You didn't have to wait in the rain for me," She said
"It's only sprinkling. I like the rain," He said simply
Clarissa laughed
It was strange
At times, Kun seemed completely miserable
But there were other times when he seemed like the happiest boy in the world
Here he was, just gleaming in the rain
They went inside
Clarissa walked to her locker, with Kun at her heels
As usual, the school was empty
The two never had any destination, but whatever route theytook, it always led to their
