Oh Child by Aurora Hallal:     

Small footprints wet the ground with blood, trailing after the little lost soul. Snow began to fall, collecting in her dark hair, wetting her clothes, and washing the blood from her legs and arms. It silenced the depravity of the stolen lives littered around her, slowly burying them. Her feet, washed of red, left only momentary prints in the snow.

The Monster in My Closet by Katelyn Simpson

Someone is watching me sleep. I’ve named him John. Because John is a funny name that helps me forget his piercing all-knowing stare. I feel like he can see through my eyes and feel through my fingertips, enveloping my soul with dark depressing nothingness until I’m not myself anymore. But because his name is John, the monster in my closet doesn’t scare me as much.

I Wanted To Be Permanent by Erika Anderson

I Wanted To Be Permanent

I asked him to show me how my name looks written in japanese

I wanted him to scribble it in his crimson journal

She Was by Charlotte Burks

Maybe a coffee shop, heat spilling onto your cheeks

Maybe a coffee shop, heat spilling onto your cheeks
As a name is called you hadn’t heard save for your dreams.
