Where Were You: 20 years later.
September 11, 2001. It was a day the world never forgot. One of the worst terrorist attacks on American soil was committed and what happened afterward changed the country forever. The World Trade Center collapsed, thousands of innocent lives were taken, and a nation wept for the families of the fallen. For many of us we still remember that day and what we were doing, how we felt at the time. With the 20th Anniversary coming up I would like for all of you to share your stories of 9/11. Where were you on that day? What do you remember? Share your emotions of that time. Reflect on that event. And then tell us how you feel today. This challenge is dedicated to the victims and their families from that attack and the many brave police and firemen who risked their lives to save so many.

Fear.

There isn't a day that goes by I don't fear aging. For all the years I've been on Earth, it scares me to imagine that I will be on it for much longer. I cannot find it in myself to believe that life will get better, only changing the struggles I face to those I have not been taught to fight. One day, I will not be able to run back into my mother's arms, nor will I be able to seek words of advice from my father. There are nights I cry myself to sleep because I cannot handle the overwhelming fear that overtakes my soul.

But, there is one thing that scares me more. And it's because I am living it.

The thing I fear the most is never being loved the way I love others. I fear that I will never know the embrace of a person who would burn the world down to see that I experience warmth.

When I say:

"I would kill somebody for you."

It isn't an exaggeration. When I love, I love beyond care for myself. The consequence doesn't matter I will put somebody before myself if that is what they need in the moment. I will sacrifice everything to remedy the hurt of my friends, family, and anybody else I may find myself loving.

Is it so much to ask for a person who is willing to do the same?

I have never been put first in my entire life and I find myself fearing that I will never be a priority.

Depression

Makes me feel gross, sub-human. There are so many people that use the word for hyperbole, saying it as 'I am depressed' rather than 'I am feeling depressed'. Depression is a constant state of misery. The best I can do as an escape is a distraction.

When I say my emotional truth, people that haven't suffered see it fit to tell me 'Others have it worse, get your shit together'. Obviously, that is how to cure depression. (Please take ntoe of my sarcasm)

Nothing good can come from depression.

Marvel recently introduced a new comic line called 'The New Warriors' and it features a new cast of superheroes, two of which are non-binary twins named Snowflake and Safespace, and boy the internet is not happy about this at all, in particular with the two non-binary characters. How do you all feel about this?
All opinions are accepted. But remember to be kind and respectful in your posts/comments. Don't make Stan Lee come down from Heaven, you punks! (lol)

Yay!

Finally! Some representation for me and my people! Their names are interesting though. I mean, I literally named myself after a plant so who am I to judge?

Let’s not fall in love

"M'kay, sounds good," I say in demiromantic disinterest.

With that I turn away from this prompt. I have completed what was needed, my work here is done.

Why I write

I write because there isn't enough good LGBTQ+ fiction in the world. Being queer doesn't have to be a coming out story, not all of us are scared of what we are. Some of us are silently out, while others are coughing from the closet. And that's fine, but being queer isn't what defines us as people, our lives will never revolve around that one aspect of our beings.

It's hard to find a role model when everything is white washed, cis washed, and het washed. I am absolutely none of those things, but when faced with a lick of rep I fall into the hands of people that will never follow through. And it's probably why I love the tv Avatar series.

In Avatar the Last Airbender, there wasn't any LQBT rep, but there was strong people of color. This meant a lot even without me knowing it, I was watching a series and it felt right. There wasn't an excessive amount of white men on screen, my favorite character being Katara. A confident woman with a craving to learn, and at the time, I thought that was who I was.

The next installment was more mature in theme than ATLA, this one called Legend of Korra. The thing about this series is for the frist time, I saw bisexual representation in a kids show. It didn't astound me in any way because I was a pansexual child and that just made sense to me. But now, looking at the series given to people my age, non-heterosexuality is generally treated as a joke.

We may make gay jokes, but we are not for anybody to poke fun at. Being queer isn't humorous, we aren't a cirus to here for your entertainment. We are people and as people we are permitted a chance to experience the world as any others would. We have a right to go on fantasy adventures and slay dragns, we have a right to pilot a spaceship, we have a right to exist in the creative scape as everybody else does.

So that is why I write.

My Best Poem

So, a little context for this poem. At school we, the students, were assigned a family traditions project. Becuase my family is boring due to lack of religion, heiritage connections, and etc. I decided to make fun of my family and my Mom's obsession of Hallmark movies. It's easiest to read this in a light rap tone. Have fun!

As Thanksgiving comes to an end

We sleep that night, all snug in our beds

The creaking of the floorboards, the hum of the tv,

Words saying from Hallmark to me

Now, you may wonder “Who is up at this hour?”

I can assure you it’s not my brother taking a shower

Nor my sister, for she is on Tik Tok much to my dismay

My father is snoring, so I can now sort this mystery away

It is my Mother, up at night

Sitting in the flat screen’s glowing light

Hallmark movies, she watches with glee

As I try to reason why the birds work for the Bourgeoisie

Dark

I never thought the world could look so dark.

I can see the light

Yet nothing about it feels right

Here it is close, so close, but why can't I feel it?

It isn't warm to the touch

In all honesty, I can't even see that much

It's so dark
