《Badly Written Poetry From A Fucked Mind》To Be Human

(Talking to myself while cleaning is the best thing. I was simply thinking out loud, said one sentence that stuck, and now we are here. No Tw this time, I really like this one. Enjoy!)
How to be human
Its a question with no true answer
No full definition
To be human can be defined as to be alive
To be breathing
And to be existing
Or it's defined in a literal sense
To be human is to be a mammal
A creation of the universe
Crafted and contorted as time goes on
But to be human to me
To me it means feeling
I'm not the only one who thinks that way
Every thought must have a source
But to me to be human is to long for the love someone holds
To be comforted by someone's lopsided smile
To be warmed by arms that are not your own
To me it means knowing that someone is waiting for you
Whether that be for you to get home
Or for a reply to their message
Or at a bus stop in the rain
To me to be human is to watch the sunrise and have the light on your skin
To have the warm feeling in your chest when you know you belong
To know you have someone's hand to hold
That is what it means to be human
To me at least
Like I said
So many definitions
No true answer
But this to me
This is how to be human to me

Valley of Titans' Tales
In a realm of fantasy, filled with great wonders but also dangers… Its inhabitants are tied in a cruel wheel of destiny, as darkness and corruption prowled the realm since its very beginning; to corrupt and deform them to the point of no return. The Gods and Goddesses’ mortal creations: Humans, High Elves, Amanis, Barakas, Castanics, Elins, and Poporis were blinded by their own nature and desires for centuries. Thus, their short-sighted ideals and racial barriers led to long, constant wars between themselves, destroying all possibilities for peace within the realm. And when they finally realized their tremendous mistakes, they can no longer undo their mistakes, no matter how much they tried, as they slowly fell into the crude gears of destiny. Except, when all hope had been extinguished and all possible solutions were swept away by the hands of darkness… ...An unknown black-haired magician bestowed another chance to this realm overwhelmed by the darkness, by turning back the hands of time. After time rewinded, opportunities revealed themselves now within arm's reach… The next step needed to save the realm was someone to take ahold of those opportunities. But…none remembered even a sliver of the bleak future, mildly drawing near to them like a spider closing in a helpless prey. Will they be able to change the bleak future? Or will history repeat itself again, as if destiny itself is taking charge? Based on the MMORPG The Exiled Realm of Arborea, Valley of Titans Server (TERA).

8 67In The Maw Of The Gods
Synopsis Lilly Harper was always the type to keep to herself. She struggled to make friendships and so, she simply opted not to. That was why moving to the coastal town of Wilham didn’t bother her. She wasn’t leaving anybody behind and she certainly didn’t expect to be making any friends any time soon. However, when she starts hearing about the school’s “Magic Club”—a group of weirdos who claim that magic is real, she can’t deny that she’s slightly intrigued. Then without warning, she suddenly finds herself wrapped up with them. And what if they aren’t crazy? What if magic is actually real? And what if it’s because of that magic that something more powerful than they could ever conceive of is drawn to Wilham? I plan to follow a release schedule of Tuesday/Friday. Average chapter length will be 4,000 to 6,000 words and I will be using multiple POV's quite often. Also to note, while I am flagging the story with content warnings, I am only doing so because there are specific moments where it will be needed. Overall, the story will be relatively tame and I plan to put extra warnings at the beginning of chapters that it applies to. Thank you to everybody who decides to give my story a chance and I hope you enjoy it!
