Short story: A witch among conformers.

She didn't know what had to be done. But she knew what should be done. She had the right of it all, that much she was sure. And her right was the right but those around her couldn't tell. How could they have peeped into what was happening in her mind. They were more or less of the same age. But she felt she was more experienced. She read a lot, had traveled more, had lived in more places. For her, they were the ultimate mark of conforming. She was creative. They were simply created, manipulated into a filtered version of the truth, and forgotten. She didn't oppose them for they didn't oppose her always. She knew she wasn't helping much in balancing the equations, because she was not sure how to oppose. Not for the lack of try, she was always more stubborn and better at arguments, she thought that once she let her storm out they'd be engulfed to never be the same. She wasn't a believer, especially in spirit science but such amount of entropy would mean rec...

She. Miserable.

Standing in from of a mirror. Look at that face. The ugliest face of misery. You enjoy, you feel miserable. You do not enjoy and you still feel miserable.  You must be some laughable stock! For you get out of your misery somehow to be miserable again. Where does that one come from? Misery. Ambition. Incompetence. More misery. You tell! Talk of misery *smirks* & it turns out you only become more miserable. Or have you been discovering it only now. NOW? Kidding me? Right?    No?  Poor baby. Yes? See? YES,YOU.

But have been able to forfeit it. Ever? Even once? Little doubt that you keep making the wrong decisions for yourself. And for others? STAPH. THERE. RIGHT THERE. You don't even know what caring for others is! Lest making decisions for them. You can't even sta...

I can't seem to forget him.

Relationship woes.  Now that's something new, you'd think.  For her it was definitely out of the blue.  She wished for her special someone to come around real soon.  She kept looking at every person that passed her.  Even in a crowded area. Lucky for her she found him.  In the most unusual of circumstances but still she did.  She had the most amazing times with him.  Those times were not many but then love has never been enough.  She waited for him at her doorsteps, kept a vigil of his approaching.  Gave all her rest a priority second to him.  She made herself believe he was the one.  She fell in love .  She was happy. Yet sad.  It was not time ripe enough to love someone yet.  S he was hardly secure.  Not sure of who she really was, what she wanted.  Then how could she give him her best?  She started drifting away from him.  She made herself do that. On purpose.  ...
