[WP] Write a goodbye letter to the last year, explaining why you're leaving it for the next year.
2013 What can I say to you? You comforted me when 2012 left so suddenly, and then stayed with me though the move, the mild trauma, and have even brought me a new baby cousin. But, alas, I must leave. You will not be here to see the delivery of said cousin, and you will not provide false comfort during times of need. I ...

[WP] Write a goodbye letter to the last year, explaining why you're leaving it for the next year.
Dear 2013, One year ago, today, I sat down and made myself a promise that I would set out to transform myself into a new, better person. The person I had hoped I would become over the course of the year would be a complete stranger to the person making these goals. I would improve on my shortcomings and I would find s...

[WP] Write a goodbye letter to the last year, explaining why you're leaving it for the next year.
13- It’s been a trip. The week in February? Getting to teach you about my past, show you where I’m from, the things that have shaped me. It was fabulous. That weekend in March? I’ll never forget it. Wandering a new city with you, learning how to improve what was already happening? Invaluable. You led me to my new h...

[WP] Write a goodbye letter to the last year, explaining why you're leaving it for the next year.
Dear 2013, I'd like to say, "it's not you; it's me," but I just can't. The best I can say is we're both to blame. I had such high expectations, I accomplished so much, but with each success I felt less rewarded. You totally blindsided me. So many things were promised and never delivered. So much sadness and struggle,...

[WP] The struggle of two men racing to claim first in a Marathon.
In a moment, the world grew still as the eyes of billions turned to watch the two men approach the final stretch of the marathon. For hours, they had traded leads, each one stretching the distance over the other for a few miles until the other found something deep within himself, that primal thing that drives men from ...

[WP] The struggle of two men racing to claim first in a Marathon.
Jason didn’t set out to win the marathon. This wasn’t his first marathon, and it wasn’t likely to be his last either. He came from a long line of runners who made the daily two or three hour cleansing ritual seem the most natural thing in the world. There was never really a chance for him not to run, but that didn’t me...

I start to open my eyes. The smell opens my nose first. Smells like piss and mildew. Reminds of Detroit, reminds me of home. A girl sitting on a bench gives me a glance before returning to her dog eared book. "You'll get used to it she says." "Am, am I dead?" She returns her look to me. "Yep. Welcome to the other side,...

Old life got me. Silly thing. I wanted to go jumping out of a helicopter or speed racing down a dirt road. Not old life. But what an odd place to end up. A subway station. A dirty one- but when are they ever clean? It was packed, but so quiet. So many people in suits stood around. I looked down at my own attire, and w...

The smell has shifted very suddenly. The lighting is about right and the dirt may have worsened a tad but the smell is off. Sewerage and mud. Something that we should not expose our sense to.

A lifetime of memories had ended when my eyes closed... but my eyes opened to something else. The subway tunnel was dimly lit. It smelled, well, the way a subway tunnel did. I was standing upright, not in my hospital bed and dreary gown. I was dressed casually. Warmly. The air felt cold. Apparently whomever, whatever, ...

A white haired man with a faded tattoo on his forearm approaches the Pearly Gates. I take out a cleanish cup and pour him some rice wine. I smile. He bumbles into a bar stool and sits down shakily.

Face on concrete. Pulling my hands forward, palms blackened by a thin layer of soot that covered the floor. Levering up, that momentary swirling feeling as equilibrium establishes itself. Not quite well enough to stand, rolling to a sitting position with knees drawn up to my chest, hands clasped below the knees. Brush...

“Well Doc you’re going to think this is stupid or something, but I think I don’t actually exist.” “Interesting…” muttered the psychiatrist as he scrawls something in his notebook. “Go on.” “Well, I don’t know, sometimes I just get the feeling that I don’t have any power over myself, like someone is controlling me an...

The intercom light blinked and I flicked it on. "Mr Sharp is here to see you." I heard a sharp voice behind her own. There was a moment of hesitation. "He says.. he says it's urgent." I pressed the intercom button and looked around, pulling my thumb and forefingers across each of my eyebrows, before coming down to m...

[CW] A story of a person giving up drugs for the one they fell in love with in ten sentences, each new sentence containing one less word than the sentence before it.
There was a time when heroin was my only heroine. There was a time when 'she' was my life. There was a time when 'she' was everything... There was a time when *she* wasn't. That time is all over now. That time is my past. *She* is my future. This is it. This is... Love.

With every hit, with every snort, with every single pill. She cried, she begged, she said she would leave. She's everything and more, and I love her. I thought I could change in time. I promised her I would. Down the toilet they go. But it's too late. She ran away. And I, Alone.

There was a time when drugs were my only happiness. I woke up to grey afternoons and empty skies. But the pills I took took the pain. And I thought I needed them until. You found me lost in despair. Took my hands and life. Held me through nightmares. Gave me love. Gave me. Life.

For a whole year we got high and made love. You moved in days after we met each other. I lost my job not too long afterwards. But we had money saved up then. The times and drugs got harder. I woke up alone once. You lay beside me. I wept hours. Never again. Done.

The needle craves the chance to comfort tired, hungry veins. She whispers softly, “I love you” in his ear. In one fell swoop, he tosses the device. It leaps towards the empty steel bin, With one last wavering forlorn look He makes a silent choice To lead with love Instead of loss To try Harder.

Used to get lost in the bottom of a bottle until the day I got lost in his eyes. Jack Daniels, John Smith, Jim Beam, Johnny Walker were the only men in my life until the day he came along. Used to not remember anything, life was desperate blackouts until the day I met him.

I remember the first time I laid eyes on her. She brought about feelings I didn't know I had. She had no idea about my tragic past. I knew what I had to do. For her; for our future together. I needed to get better. I discarded the pills. Removed all traces. For her. Maria.

One addiction always leads to another, and cocaine was my gateway drug. The gateway it opened was to a different kind of drug. However, in stepping through one gate, another had to shut. She said you loved something if you needed it. I needed cocaine, my mind required its presence. She couldn't love someone l...

I'm in. I waffled for a bit after the original announcement, then got on this morning to see if a prompt inspired me, then banged out 1700+ words on one. They won't all be this long, but what a good start!
