I saw her, once again she sat down took me in her arms and I knew once again I was going to be used as a handkercheif for her blood. Slowly, very slowly she unfurls the pages one after another, she saw her blood in every pages. Her blood was different then others, normally blood is red but hers, hers is black she bleeds in the form of words and itself , I am her handkercheif. Every turned page is a master piece She is a tragedy herself. She always bleed on me. My every page is a reflection of her wounds, She has such deep scars, but I am only capable of containing the blurry, faded memories of her wounds.
I have seen people tell her that her creations are wonderful and how easily is able to express her emotions but I, only I have seen those empty pages that depicts the mess in her mind. Her holding the pen wanting to write, so much but isn't able too cause she is lost in her mess, her Mind's mess. The pen is the knife her thoughts are blood and I am the hankerchief and the witness to the wounds. She is an ocean, undiscovered, deep and mystery to not only those around her but also to herself.
I don't think I will ever be able to hold the ocean. I will always hold the figments of ocean... the memories....

Hi...welcome to YWS.
The writing in this piece is truly distinctive, particularly with its innovative approach of presenting the diary as a character in its own right. This perspective creates a unique narrative voice that feels both intimate and insightful. The diary serves as a confidant, understanding the protagonist’s emotions more deeply than anyone else could. Each entry captures her struggles and triumphs in a way that resonates with the reader, revealing the complexities of her journey.
"The pen is the knife her thoughts are blood and I am the hankerchief and the witness to the wounds. She is an ocean, undiscovered, deep and mystery to not only those around her but also to herself."
The phrase encapsulating the diary's thoughts about its protagonist is a striking highlight of this piece. It beautifully illustrates the evolving relationship between the girl and her diary, showcasing how the diary has become an intimate witness to her life. As days pass, it grows attuned to her emotions, anticipating the deep, unspoken truths she can share with no one else. This connection adds layers of depth to the narrative, allowing readers to feel the weight of her secrets and the solace she finds in writing them down.
Overall, this work is compelling and resonant, skillfully capturing the nuances of personal reflection. Keep up the great work!
Hello hello hello! Welcome to YWS Fallingstar (what a beautiful username). I'm Icy, popping by for a quick review today.
First off I think your imagery here is really strong. The emotions and descriptions you're conveying are really powerful considering how short the piece is. I love that you've personified the diary and how close diary seems to feel to the person writing in it. It's a really interesting thing to have explored and I think would also work just as well if written in poetry rather than prose.
A couple of nit-picks:
Just a typo here. It should read and I knew once again I was going to be used as a handkerchief for her blood.
Again, watch the spelling of handkerchief. Also though, because you've used the word twice in such a short space of time (and it's not a super common word) this made it feel a bit repetitive. I'd suggest looking for another word instead here.
This should be bleeds
I love the lines you end on, and the ellipses are kind of reminiscent of how someone might actually write in a diary which I think is a nice technique.
A cool idea, and well executed!
Hope this was helpful, and hope you're enjoying the site so far!

Hi! I'm Kate and I'm here to leave a quick review!!
Anyway let's get right to: Kate's Line by Line Reactions;
Oooh this is a very powerful start here. Oh this paragraph is just full of amazing lines just hitting you one after the other about the way the owner of this diary has no one it would seem and packs all of those bad memories and everything that hurts and stains her heart into words in the hopes that some comfort can come here.
Its a lot of very visceral imagery that hits incredibly hard and it makes for an absolutely amazing opening there really cutting right to the very heart of this matter beautifully.
Oh this is not the sort of thing you too often, the perspective of the diary coming in about how much it can actually hold of all of this pain and sadness coming through. I especially love the bit about how there's nothing that it can do and its just a bystander, a simple observer seeing all it unfold.
That ending really ties it up perfectly about how this can never be a permanent solution but rather just figments of memories held on that give just a moment's relief. Truly a beautiful little tale.
Aaand that's it for this oneee!!!
As always remember to: Take what you think was helpful and forget the rest!
