There is an ocean that keeps us apart. Miles that seem never ending. Every day is another battle won. At the same time, it means another battle is on its way. I wonder if we’ll be able to make it through this time around. I wonder when will be the next time I get to see you, to hold you, to feel your warm skin on mine again. I’m willing to fight again if that means I’m one day closer to you. Just keep fighting my love, it’s almost done. The big battle will one day come to an end.
About the Creator
Live&Love
My page is about my personal life. I either tell a story with it, or use my story to create a short piece of artwork to help anyone who may be in the same situation as me.
Confidence Is Beauty
When I was younger, I was always that one kid who always got picked on, who was always laughed at, and who always was the last choice. I wasn’t like the other girls in my school (skinny, pretty, or popular). I always tried my best to fit in with the others. I would try and act like them, like the same things, or even talk like them. I knew I was beginning to lose myself, but what could I do? I wanted to be noticed by them, or even be friends with them. Before I knew it, I was the class clown. Every day I would come home from school sad or in tears because someone insulted me. Soon, I didn’t really love myself. I would wish that I could turn back time and change everything, hoping that maybe the new me would be better. I began to degrade my own self. I would hide from pictures, not look in the mirror, or turn down even the most genuine nice comments from others. It got to the point where I decided to move schools. I moved somewhere I knew no one would follow me and where no one knew who I was (probably except two people). I gave myself a chance to reinvent myself.

Whispering Woods Challenge Winners
Congratulations to Morgan Christy Rickards for their winning Whispering Woods story, Guardian at the Gate. Morgan has been a Vocal creator since February 2021, and this is their first time placing in Challenge — well done, starting with a win! Guardian at the Gate draws evocatively from Welsh tales of the Cantre'r Gwaelod, a lost sunken kingdom between the forest and the sea. Heledd’s dangerous adventure pulls her towards the water but her spirit is anchored in the woods: Morgan’s writing is atmospheric and exciting.
