“The Drawing of a Miracle” by Joane Unknown

Submitted to Contest #152

"You know what is this, dad?" Amnious looked at me, putting her drawing on my desk. I left my book aside and moved my focus on her drawing. For a moment, I could only see bright colors, blue, yellow, orange, green, and white but in the middle, there were darker colors that made you think that they were all dark black but which were lighter in the sun's light. There was also an unrecognizable figure in the middle which l...

“The Human Robots” by Joane Unknown

Who are you? Maybe that may seem like probably the most used rhetorical question humans have ever asked each other but what is so hard answering a three-word question? Every individual used to have their own identity, their own opinions and beliefs, and their very own way of living life. Now? In this modern world, what do we have? Thrown ashes of who we used to be, at the moment replaced with who we must be. We consider...

“The Red Moon's soul” by Joane Unknown

My coat was wet because of the soft rain coming from the sky above. The city was asleep and I was the only one awake on the streets of Edinburgh. The beautiful and the royal Edinburgh but, underlying its beauty there were some very mysterious and questionable memories that everybody wants to hide. I was walking the streets of the old Edinburgh, the Edinburgh that you should stay far away from. People said that the small...

“The road to death” by Joane Unknown

Submitted to Contest #140

I remember that night like a dream that keeps coming back every night, from which you wake up out of a sudden in the middle of the night, breathing hard and fast then feeling cold sweat on your back.  The night where our life's length could have been shortened within seconds  My friends and I were getting ready for our countryside trip. Josh's grandparents had a small, traditional house somewhere up in the ...

“It knows everything” by Joane Unknown

Submitted to Contest #82

Phones. They know everything about us. They know more about us than we do, and that is not normal. Location, friends, enemies, school, age, family, every single thing, that small device takes it and you will never know what it does with it or what it will do. They are dangerous and you may call me crazy, but I am right because it affected my life. But there are not only phones, but there are also laptops too. Now you are...

“Back form the Moon” by Joane Unknown

I was looking at the stars, thinking about you. I wanted to go home to you but I couldn’t, I was too far from you. I wanted the best but I didn’t know that the best comes with sacrifices.

There was something about you that made me want to break that galaxy....

“The untold truth” by Joane Unknown

Submitted to Contest #76

Every person has its own secrets, even if they are that kind of secrets that may be funny for the others, or those secrets that you wouldn't tell anybody even if your life would depend on them. I tried to hide my secrets for more than 12 years, because I didn’t want people to judge me for my past and for the things I did when I had no brain. I hate liars, that is why I always tell the truth to everybody. I can’t stand pe...

“Noisy but silent” by Joane Unknown

Submitted to Contest #76

The “Noisy but silent” case was one of my hardest cases since I got my job as a detective. I was a new detective, and this case hit me harder than a train with no brakes. I was 25 years old when I became a detective. My boss didn’t like me from the start and he gave me one of the most complicated cases he had, even if, before that, I had two easy cases.   The case seemed not to be complicated when me and ...

“A new beginning” by Joane Unknown

Submitted to Contest #75

There are two types of people. Those people who do things in life for other people, and live their lives for others and not for them. And the other type are the people who left the society’s standards and lived their lives doing what they love, and sadly, these kinds of people are very rare because of the society we all live in. People are always headed by other people that are “role models” for them, and by doing that, ...

“Too far” by Joane Unknown

The smell, the feeling that you are alive when you shouldn't be, the happiness and the sadness all around you. The people that want to do their best but they know that their work is useless. The feeling that you are real when you will just go too far.  A miracle that turned into hell for the people all around you.   `She is never focused on our conversation` No, I am not. I live in another world where I am ...
