The boy--Ariege

I remember there was a boy who daringly loved you. This boy who said nothing and never moved a muscle. I remember this boy watched you be with the wrong guy. He watched you make some of the biggest mistakes of your life. When your friend asked him to come near he would, and when he didn't he wouldn’t. He watched you make multiple life changing decisions but never opened his mouth. He listened to your every need and call at every moment but never spoke his pain for the love he enamored for you. Never opened his mouth when he saw you leave his side again. Watched your lust turn into love but never realized anything was different. He was patient. Never did he force you to love him, only because he wanted it to be real, genuine love. He stared into your brown eyes without blinking just so he wouldn't miss a moment not being able to see you. He took pictures for every moment you could feel pure happiness. He learned to like what you did, do things the way you wanted and go where you desired. He tried thinking the way you did, just to understand. He was by your side when others hurt you, and even when your own family hurt you. It took much time, which is why when the day you made one right decision, the one day you finally understood everything, he couldn't believe it. He never pushed. He always kept you in his heart. He was loyal. He was patient. He waited. He was Ishmam.

  1. I love this piece! especially the emphasis put on not pushing by the use of repetition. Most guys usually won't just love someone and wait for them to come around, he sounds like an amazing person.

  3. AWWWWWW Ariege I love this so much it truly melted my heart. I admire how you expressed your emotions and the way in which you described Ishmam. Every word you wrote about Ishmam truly describes him, because he is indeed a patient and calm person and you can't really find a person like him as often because he is one of a kind. You both are so cute and complete each other, I wish you both a bright future together. XOXOXOXOXO <3<3<3

  27. What a cute and sad story. Never was he despairing, always kept hope that one day that girl would become his. I like how you made the guy seem so close to the girl but at the same time stood far, great job.

  34. This story is amazing and to know that it is a true one makes me want to cry. I love how you relayed Ishmam's emotions and how much you care for each other outside of this brief glimpse into the relationship. You two are made for each other and i wish you all the best!

  35. This was such a cute piece about love and friendship. In a world of cheating and lying it's rare that we find a genuine love. I liked your use of repetition of the world he and waited. This was a great piece.

  36. WHY am I crying in the club right now? I thought this was a general statement and that was the path it was taking, BUT OH MY GOLLY. FIrst of all you have profound diction that was both understandable and enjoyable. Secondly, I believe the structure was perfect and you repetition to enhance a first person point of view made it more personal. Third, say hi to Ishmam for me thats my homie. AND LASTLY HOW ADORABLE THAT WAS GREAT.

  40. AWWW MY Heart! This piece was so beautifully written and had an amazing end. Everything about this was amazing from the short but powerful sentences, to the description of the boy and the girl, everything just fell into place and it was amazing. The way you described the process of falling in love was intense to say the least. Again awesome job Ariege!
