Pen to the Paper 13: Season One Finale
Hey! You! I want EVERYONE to participate in this. All you have to do is sit down and write without planning first. No word limit, no thematic restraints, no style restraints--anything and everything can be entered! Draft it as many times as you like. And HAVE. FUN. Thanks for participating! Ope, there is one restraint. Minimum words allowed is 15 and I can't change that.

Maybe

Sometimes I wonder what it would be like to get the hell out of here. Just to take off into the darkness outside, and wonder when I would see anyone again. Maybe then I could finally do what I want to do. Maybe then I could write what I want to write.

Or maybe nothing would happen. Maybe I wouldn't change at all. I'd still be the same person, sitting on her bed watching the sky outside turn from blue to purple as the sun sets.

Or maybe I would become someone completely different. I could be a pirate, living my life on the seas and fighing people for gold. I could be a popstar, singing to places I haven't even heard of and listening to people sing along to my songs. I could be a hermit, living in the corners of a hut, no one around to check on me anymore.

Sometimes I want to change. I want to be that person everyone says is so cool. But then I realize that it's not possible. I'm still me. I write stupid stories that make no sense. I sit on my bed and pretend like someone is sitting next to me so I can talk to someone. I check my phone every five minuntes just to see that no one has texted me.

It's okay. In my head, I'm everyone I want to be. And maybe, someday, that'll all come true.
