Distant Hearts: Emily

Tragedy Created on 3-17-07 Views(72) Story Rating G

Emily was laid on her bathroom floor. The cold tile was a brief relief from what laid beyhond that door. A father in a druken state. She could hear him stumble in ranting on about how his life sucks. She closed her eyes and covered her ears. She thought about other things to distract her from the pain of the moment. Her father was banging on the bathroom door now. Tears bled from her eyes. Finally he busted in. The next morning her father laid on the couch passed out. Emily snuck from the living to the front door. She rolled up her sleeves and grabbed her backpack. The marks left by her father were clearly visible. She opened the door and stepped out she let the cool morning air rush to her skin. Finally she turned around and slammed the door as hard as she could. She walked along the path she took to school the sun was barely up. she reached forsaken bridge. She dropped her backpack and climbed on the railing. She leaned over and then let go. The cold waters below took away her pain and life.

Ilovepeaches I would be great if she survived in the end, but it's good. I like your metaphorical view and your sentance structure. It's a good story, and the name 'Emily' is the best :)

Sassy6969Mamma It's harsh to read seeing as to how there are better ways to deal with life. But it is a sad and true fact that things that happen in a persons life that drives them to do the one thing that they could have control over.
