+ Horizontal 8 Ep. 4

She was only 17. Her blouse was of an eye-bleeding colour and her dress was way too long. She hated that dress. It always swept the dust from the pavement and her mother would scream at her.

'I told you to take care of the dress! You never listen to me! You barely take care of your own things, how are you supposed to take care of others?' Urgh, she was the one who made her wear that silly dress, not her! All the other girls in the school wore different clothes than her, more teenage-like, more ''hip''.

'Hey, look, there's her! Nice dress! Loser...' and they all started laughing. Kat Moore... One of the most popular girls in school. Perfect grades, perfect body, perfect boyfriend, perfect life. Disgusting attitude... She didn't care about Fat Kat.

Now she was walking down the street in full day light. From

 the look of her face you could see that she had been crying. 'Am I that weird that nobody wants to talk to me? My mom doesn't accepte me, I have no friends and I'm considered a freak!'

Reading was a way out of the reality surrounding her, but she

 had found something else to help her. Magic. Paranormal. Wicca. Ouiji Board. Everything related to this. It seem that all these things interested her.

So now she was heading to a place where she saw on the internet: Sabbra Cadabra. She went in and saw all the potions, books, candles and other weird things, like bat wings, dragon claws and cat's whisker. She was looking through the aisles and she saw a book: '283 easy love spells'. She liked the sound of it and went to pay for it.

'4.99' the boy at the counter said.

'Okay. Here it is.' She smiled. He smiled back.

'Noobie, huh?'

'I'm sorry?'

'You're new, in magic.'

'Oh...' she started, 'well... kinda.'

'Okay.' He smiled again. 'I'm Matthew!' he put out his arm.

She did the same and they shook hands.

'Natasha... Delighted!'

Hope Of The Depressed

She takes a shower

Feeling that it's going to wash all the blood away

The blood that she's covered with.

She thinks she's going to be clean one day.

She sings a song

Feeling that it's going to make her forget all

Forget all that she's been through.

She thinks there's not going to be a second fall.

She thinks of you

Feeling that it's going to take every bad thing away

Every bad thing that has happened to her.

She thinks that next to her you'll never again stay.

She stops and looks round her.

What does she see?

Nothing that she can care for

Nowhere she'd want to be.

Then, why does she wash the blood away?

Why does she sing the song?

Why does she think of you?
Why does she think that none of these are wrong?

Two-shadowed

Where are you now?
Are you walking alone in the dark?
Could you allow
Me to be your shadow?



Take me everywhere with you
Let me follow your steps
Could you tell me who
Was the last person made out of two?



I can keep up your pace
I'll be careful and try not to slip
Could you embrace
The idea of me following your trace?
