The Wanderer


I knew it was a joke right from day one. I mean...it was so obvious! My instinct has never failed me.
It was ritual for me not to get too involved with someone until I get to know whoever deeply, but this time around I let my guard down. Its hard to judge a book by its cover you know.

I used to build walls and burn bridges, I wanted it to be just ME! I couldn't stand the thought of someone coming to fill me up and then leave like nothing happened. I LEARNED!.

I decided to live in the  moment, enjoy it while it lasted, feel as long as I could. But it wasn't enough. I wanted something real, something I could hold on to..... I started digging the past, it felt so wrong. I stopped. Believe me it HURTS. Then I realized its Ok to feel...everything if possible. I said to myself, cry if you want to, laugh, hate, love , just feel. You'll be fine.

But there's only one thing to do, you either make or fool yourself.

No one truly cares about you, so care for yourself.

Value YOURSELF.

I decided to care for myself , to hurt less.

I WANDERED.....

UNFAZED (continued)

Hey guys, if you are just joining the wagon, I will link below the first and second parts of the story. UNFAZED I UNFAZED II ****************************** I knew I couldn't continue to punish my self as it would only damage me, all of this wouldn't have happened if I wasn't trying to make friends that lived around. Aunty Karis and her husband were kind enough to make sure i had a proper bath and prepared bowls of food. Their home was so full of love, it was nothing compared to mine where all we did was forcefully please each other. ‘Nne, hope you are feeling better now', Aunty Karis asked. ‘Yes Aunty, thank you', I replied. ‘We are very sorry about what happened to you, boys like that shouldn't be allowed to move around freely', Uncle Ndu Said. ‘He can't go scot-free, God will surely fight for you. The system continues to fail us , sometimes I think it is a waste of time going to them. It would only traumatize you', Aunty Karis ...

UNFAZED

THE BEGINNING The kerosene had finished in the stove and there was no reserve, just after mum had finished preparing breakfast. School wasn't on session and I wished I had friends to visit as I was always indoors and going out was practically a taboo in our home. “Take one thousand from my wardrobe, buy kerosene with it", Dad said, bringing me back from my very short trip to space. I hurriedly left to take the money, mischievously I thought about buying kerosene 800 instead of 1000. Somehow I managed to get away with most of my silly acts. After washing the dishes and cleaning the table, I took the kerosene keg, an old groundnut oil keg that was washed clean and converted to a kerosene keg. It was past eleven, i had to hurry so we would make lunch on time. The walk from the house to the petrol station was a short but lonely one. The road was rarely used and there was three other roads to use. ‘Give me kerosene 800' I told the attendant. A familiar face walke...

Sick Obsession

Source: Unknown I got myself this fine hunk for Christmas, he let's me touch his beards and gives me back rubs in return. He is my best friend...my bestie. I'm starting to fall in love but there is one small issue. He is married. Chris visited on new year's day, I couldn't help myself, I asked him for sex and he gave it to me passionately. He told me it was just what it was...sex. He said he couldn't give more than that. He loves his wife dearly. I'm hurt. If I can't have him, no one will. I wore my darkest makeup and made my way to his home. One small fire, I watched the house burn to the ground. Chris has become ashes. I miss him..... A/N : Staring at nothing inspired me to write this, I hope you enjoy it ☺️
