The Irreplaceable Piece: Maxine Merit
The Irreplaceable Piece Vulnerability. This was something that caused Maxine Merit so much conflict, it often left her wondering why her heat has yet to wither away and relinquish. Strength was something that Maxine lacked and all of her problems came when she found the one who she assumed that she could love and cherish with all of her heart. The one who was her other half, the one who fit into her. But it always seemed to be wrong in everything she believes in because a broken heart shoved the truth in her face so suddenly she did not know what to do. With a broken heart so damaged, nothing could have dragged her out of the inescapable darkness that enveloped her. No amount of medication can heal the broken, no amount of fixed smiles …show more content…
All this broken-heartedness caused her so much grief, she found herself shoved and trapped in between four white walls. With a silence so piercing, the voices inside of her head screamed at her and kept her company. They were her only friends and unlike everyone else, they never seemed to leave her. They wouldn’t dare. She was all alone in this god-forsaken room and she was bounded like a prisoner, the only human she has really seen for god knows how long was a lank and pale woman who dropped by with her much-needed necessities. Maxine loathed her however because she knows of this woman's true intentions. She was trying to take away her only true friends. The woman who went by the foolish name of Dr.Embezzle tried to take the very thing that kept Maxine alive and sane. When she thought back to what made her this way she wanted to laugh at her own foolishness. She could still see …show more content…
Live a little!” Patel playfully smacked Maxine on the arm causing her to wrap her arms around herself and shiver. Thinking back on it, Maxine should have yelled and scolded her in contempt. Her eyes flickered towards the opposite end of the lake and they widened as they casted upon a figure. It seemed like a shadow at first glance but she was terribly mistaken. It was him. The wind lifted his ashy brown hair and the sunlight’ beam glistened off his tanned skin. But that was not what caught her eye, no, it was, however, his own. His radiating orbs were a deep violet that held a mysterious disposition. Her heart had skipped a beat when his beautiful eyes suddenly locked upon hers and it seemed as if the entire world halted and shattered all she could see was him. His jaw tightened and his violet pupils dilated before he suddenly straightened up and turned his back to her. He walked into the dark depths of the ostensibly never-ending forest. Maxine's’ brows lifted in curiosity and, for whatever reason, desired to follow this mysterious creature. Maxine was never a girl to do anything out of the ordinary; she was very mundane. She also did not know what force caused her to open her mouth and

    Happiness, bliss, love, thrill, fear, heartbreak, but there's one word that stood strong beneath each of those, depression. It’s sad to think, that what everyone had failed to see was, that behind that smile of mine, was a darkness with so much depth it engulfed me. The only one who had ever known was the girl that was like a sister to me, Elena. We battled depression together for years, she was the one who won her battle…I did not. I couldn’t, it’d become the taunting, negative voice that kept me up every night and the one that’d scream at me everyday. The tears that’d stain my pillowcase and the reason I hid behind a mask since I’d been ten years old. Slowly everyday that truly happy girl everyone would know, became the happy girl everyone knew. Only if they had known, I couldn’t ever figure out why it’d cloud my thoughts, kill my happiness, and take complete control of my life. But no one would ever know, because I was able to go through those days with a smile so bright, no one would question if I was okay or not. The truth is I wasn’t, everything inside of me was tumbling down and…

    The little girl ran into a wall. This was not an unusual occurrence but it was a painful one and the young child began to cry. Her mother didn’t help her, nor did her father – they were on a business trip to Peru. The wall felt sorry for the girl but (being an inanimate object) there was not much it could do to help so it just sat there. “Poor soul” it whispered, the sound of its voice melting into the waves of the wind, never to be heard again.…

    3. The tone and mood of the poem are mysterious at the beginning when it is not clear what is really going on, but kind of uncomfortable at the end when the reader identifies what the children had done and how they have made their mother feel embarrassed from their actions. Maxine Tynes uses imagery, comparison and connotation ("dipped in the brown skin magic") to convey this mood and tone.…

    Every moment I ceased to believe not of the world I envision when the shadows devours me into the realms of my unmeasured thoughts that segregates me from reality’s quarantine. A cup of sugarless coffee wasn’t powerful enough to pull me away from the night of surrender. I wanted not to dream but every time I close my eyes, sanctuary seems to muffle me. It’s the only time where I am able to dance with the spirits of my soul. It’s the only place where I am able to express the extravagant selfishness my heart cursed to unleash.…

    Inside his mind there were bleached walls and blazoned doors. There were sets of men in white with chlorine eyes watching him and writing on papers. Quickly he found that hope was painful in this place where in others it was all some had. During the first months inside these walls the morning hours began to seem like midnight. Each day held more death than the last, and it began to consume him.…

    There is nothing beyond what she can immediately sense around her. The world returns when her hand meets the surface or she detects a tiny, secluded meow among the trees, and disappears just as swiftly. The strain of combating the ebony shroud engulfing the countryside took hold; pangs of soreness washed over and nestled beneath her eyelids. She was already as good as blind and understood no point in trying anymore.…

    Days with no food, nights with no rest, an abominable memory that doesn’t part my mind. The sounds of her voice and the attributes of her face remain preserved in my memory. An endless nightmare that I’m trapped in an aphotic room imprisoned between four walls, so tight they start to suffocate me. The sounds of footsteps break the silence; I held my breath for a good minute trying to divert my focus on the noise that seemed to be gradually getting louder with every step, sending shivers down my spine. The unknown creature behind closed doors stops dead.…
