her smile was bittersweet
but it might’ve just been me
or more likely the not-completely-ripe orange
that i chose to eat this morning

Seven tickets. An island of dreams. The chance of a lifetime.

Sometimes I stand there, barefoot in my nightwear,
The emotion in my eyes, concentrated in an angry glare,
In my heart’s abyss, burns a furious flame,
Everyone around me, on them I pin the blame.

“Cough, cough, achoo!”

Here come the holidays,

And once more, poor old Mili,

Is down with the darned flu.

Due to a sudden, extreme case of writer’s block and a completely uninspiring week because of assessment tasks, we have a guest writer, one of my friends, saving my graces today! Shoutout to him for his amazing writing, and thank you for helping me out today.

Enjoy:)

In this inspiring story, two teenagers fall in love, Stella and Will. Only, they can’t cross withing 6 feet of each other, due to their debilitating cystic fibrosis. Stella is a routine, rule-following individual, while Will doesn’t want to be limited by us CF, accepting his life and wanting to live it to the fullest.

Life or love?

Five Feet Apart, by Rachael Lippincott, Tobias Iaconis, Mikki Daughtry

Twilight, o twilight,

Won’t you take me home?

The twinkle in your rotten eye,

Threatens to tip me over into the unknown.

All of us have hobbies. Be it reading, listening to music, or exercising, there’s always a safe place we dedicate our time to whenever we have leisure time on our hands, or when we’re feeling down.

Wake up, go to school, sleep, and eat,

A momentary lapse or two within a monotoned routine,

The end of another year, one more or two,

A new birthday, a new life built for you.
