It's kind of weird how one day you can be so happy that you feel like nothing could ever bring you down, and the next day you feel so depressed that you don't want to come out of your room. That's the way it was for me. One day I was playing basketball and going to youth group, the next I was laying in my room feeling sick.

We wear the mask to hide the tears that fall from our eyes and roll down our cheeks. We put on a grin to make people think we are okay, but in reality it is a lie because we are broken inside. The mask could also be the frase “I am fine”. From an African American from the nineteenth

“ Hey, McKenna do you want to see my toy that I just created?” I replied with a yes of course I would. My grandpa showed me the toy that he created with his hands. One time I thought he was watching T.V. and was laughing at that, but I was wrong. He was putting candy corn in his teeth acting like he was a vampire.

Starring down toward the cracked wooden table, Ellen starts to cry. Knowing deep down that everything that has occurred is her fault. It's too late at this point, it's too far gone. As each tear tumbles down her powdered, rosy, cheeks she hugs herself tighter and tighter. This provides her with some sort of comfort, the kind of comfort she deprived her daughter of. Every night as Ellen lay in bed she remembers, she remembers what she could've done. “Jamie honey I'm home, where's Dad?… Jamie?” As

The dark sky is illuminated by the faint outline of the clouds. Just enough light to see the bright glowing ring of the humanoids as you pass; but not enough to see the white shiny exterior that would normally reflect the dashboard lights. Driving home from work, Bruce Hampton, one of the world's leading physicists in mechanical engineering. At home, a wall full of shiny medals and certificates enclosed in a wooden display cabinet.
