  1. deserved to lose him and i deserved to be in pain and i never thought that he should forgive me or that i deserved his forgivness because it must have hurt so much that. and he deserves so so so much better because he is incredible. but for some reason, he forgave me

  2. The news didn’t shock her. She stood by the window, looking without seeing at the living lace of raindrops running down the glass, and everything was quiet, so quiet. A silence that’s left once the story runs out. Something in her had seen it coming, anticipated it, an implacable verdict of fate, which deep down she felt she deserved.

  3. Whether or not he deserved her was not the issue. He wanted her damn it, and that should have been enough. Sure she was wealthy, educated, well traveled well read while he was the exact opposite. What should that matter? What should matter was what was in his heart, and it was full of love and desire for her and her alone.

  4. i am a sinner
    i am no saint
    many of the things i have now
    i know i do not deserve
    i deserve less, or maybe more
    but who am i to know
    who to judge how much we take
    or we should have

  5. she deserved a knight. sansa did nothing but follow her septa’s advice and train to become a true lady. tales of gallant knights and songs of romance stories have long faded from her scarred memory and she has nothing left but hurt in her heart. a true love, someone to steal her away . . . that’s what she needed. what she deserved.

  6. It wasn’t enough to want him. She wanted him to want her, with every fiber of her being. And sitting next to him always felt like a guilty pleasure, because he was so incredible. Her presence was a disease, a curse. If only it wasn’t. If only she was on his level somehow.

    (i can’t believe i actually managed that, i’m so tired ._.)

  7. He always deserved more than he got. Lancelot always thought that. And he took that thought to his dying day, when he sacrificed himself for that very man, because he deserved so much more. Lancelot could not remember the first time he had thought it. He just knew. Someday, Merlin would get what he deserved. All his sacrifices would one day repay him. They had to.

  8. sometimes i think i got what i wanted.
    that i got the girl, the job, the home.
    but i sometimes feel like i don’t deserve all of them
    and i’m afraid i would lose them all.
    do you feel the same way?
    anybody?

  9. DESERVED is a word
    I’d ended with yesterday
    During my haiku.

    Observing people,
    They have deserved bad in life
    Not much any good.

  10. I suppose I had it in my mind that as your sister I deserved more time with you than I got. Really, though, it’s just that you deserved more years than you had. In the end, it doesn’t matter what I thought you deserved, because it’s been seven months and you’re still gone.

  11. He didn’t feel like he deserved her love. She was beautiful, pure and most of all, had more in life than spending time with him. Just what he should do to make her happy? He wished he could actually be the reason for the smile on her face but how selfish that thought is..

  12. It was well-deserved, she thought. This spanking. She deserved it. She’d disobeyed direct instructions, gone where she shouldn’t have gone, said what she shouldn’t have said. Perhaps if she had kept quiet, if she hadn’t given herself away, then it would have been all right. She still would have deserved the hitting, the pain, perhaps, but she would have escaped it nonetheless.

  13. I told myself that she deserved to pa.y for what she’d done. That I deserved vengeance. That she deserved pain.
    But she didn’t deserve this.
    No one deserved this.

  14. Maybe Jordan deserved what he got, and maybe he didn’t. I’m not one to judge things like that. All I know is, that fall before it happened, he was asking for some kind of trouble, and brother, did it ever find him. We hadn’t been friends for as long as some of the others in our group- we’d both been in the school about a year by the time we met the rest of the Arrellys.

  15. “I want to see if he’s good enough for you.”
    “Don’t you remember what I said about not being able to measure people like you can with numbers?”
    “No. I don’t. Because that’s bs. You’re better than a lot of people I know.”
    I realized he had a point.

  16. Isn’t life the ultimate. The truth that all can see. Why the arguing over who is #deserving of the beauty of life, of the lust and pleasures of life. If life is the first truth, why are we arguing over speculations and fairytales of the unknowable final truth? #oznolem #oneword

  17. He didn’t deserve to be treated the way I treated him. He was good to me, but I was distracted. But then again, I didn’t deserve to be cheated on, and now I’m fucked up for life. None of us deserve any of this, and it’s pretty sad. Why did this happen? I wish I could take back my actions, and his actions.

  18. It wasn’t until she stood at the cliff, watching his hair from above, an angle she hadn’t really studied before. There were flecks of brown, with sandy patches; she wasn’t sure whether it was age, stress, or perhaps it’d always been that way. She hadn’t really seized the opportunity – hadn’t been granted it, perhaps; it wasn’t particularly deserved – to explore all of who he was yet. Maybe when he came the rest of the way up and they were sitting at the peak together. Maybe.

  19. She never felt she deserved to be happy, loved and cherished. But he did. And he made sure that she knew it by showing her what he felt in his heart.

  20. “You deserved it!” wailed Nadia from the sidelines as I limped back to the dugout. “You deserved every ounce of pain from that! You know why? ‘Cause you’re a no-good, ungrateful, whorish swine who likes to eat babies for breakfast with a half cup of coffee and a slice of – ”

    “Is she okay?” my teammate asked me as I settled onto the bench, nursing the new jolt of agony in my now twisted ankle. I pulled off my cap and wiped my brow.

    “Ignore her,” I mumbled. “She’s half-crazy, half-upset that I don’t like her as more than an acquaintance.”

  21. She deserves this. Charley thought fiercely, clenching his hand into a fist. But somehow the usual abiding fury no longer twisted his heart. He felt none of the loathing that had once burned so steadfastly throughout his mind. Instead, he was left with a dull sorrow. His fist jerked and he slowly let it fall limp.
    “I pity her.” He blinked in disbelief, and as he did he flicked the metallic switch. The gate came to a grinding halt and he numbly watched a grey figure escape on the security screens.

  23. i never deserved a penny
    i never deserved a life
    but the lord jesus came and cared for me,
    and now i live without strife.

    in his house of peace and care and sinners swept clean.

  24. I do not think I deserved all that I have right now, especially since I have not appreciated how much they have come to mean to me. I do not deserve them but I’m still thankful that I do have them. My family, my friends, my job, my health, my life…I will always be thankful for them.

  25. Isn’t it easier to just say “she was getting what she deserved”? She was drinking alcohol, after all (let’s not discuss the man who saw an incapacitated girl and decided to take advantage). She was wearing provocative clothing (let’s not discuss the man who decided to take them off against her will). She was out late at night (let’s not discuss the man that waited at night for a girl to be alone). So it’s only fair that what happened, happened: what goes around, went around. Right? Wasn’t she getting what she deserved?

    Wasn’t she?

  26. Deserved is a word I can apply to others but not to myself. It’s tricky how we all see how hard others work, how they are worthy and ‘deserve’ the wonderful things that come to them, but when the same comes to us, we are quick to brush it off or downplay it. However, if the negative happens, and I think ‘I deserved that’, easily apply it to myself as having done something wrong.

  27. It was more than she deserved, she knew that. The dark purple fabric of the skirt swished as she twirled for herself in the mirror, the light of the reflective fibers scintillatingly beautiful.

    Her aunt must have spent a thousand dollars on this piece of textile art…

  28. sometimes people don’t get what they deserved
    sometimes you work so hard only to get screwed over
    but you know what?
    make those people screwing you over regret it
    make them get what THEY deserve
    show them how much it takes out of a person to have to just take it
    to take the shit that they deal
    after all,
    it is only what they deserve

  29. I deserve to live my life.

    and there’s no reason I should have to subservient myself to do so.

  30. And slowly… ceremoniously… they placed the crown on his head.

    /But this wasn’t deserved/, the words caught in his throat. /I didn’t do anything to deserve this./

  31. I deserved this past weekend. The first week of school felt like a whirlwind, and I didn’t feel like I could even think straight for a day. I feel much more confident about my teaching this year, even so, and I think I’m more organized. I hope I can keep it up and get more of my kids engaged. Some of them think I’m boring wah :(

  32. i have never deserved to be in love with somebody. I’ve been in love once but i will never get that feeling back ever again. I’m too afraid.

    by sarah sherlock on 08.10.2014
  33. well you deserve this
    you needed this
    the blood on your temples
    belongs where it is
    and i have lost my freedom to you
    i have lost my innocence
    because i gave you this
    because your fate is my gift to you
    because i believe you deserved it, darling

  34. There are some things in life that are deserved from birth. He believed this with every ounce of his being, and when this ideology of his clashed with the reality of the world, he invariably aimed to make sure that the world at least came away with a black eye. The ‘things’ which were owed to him were never pinned down, of course; they ranged from materialist guff (drink, women, etc.) to more dangerous things. People. Sounds. Designs. Thoughts.

  35. I’m testing this website for the first time.

  36. Because Thomas behavour is improving, his mother decided that he deserved to play with other boys outside.

  37. She knows that she doesn’t deserve that grade, but who cares? No one.

  38. “He got what he deserved,” she thought, as she cleaned the blood from her hands. She carelessly tossed the instrument of his demise beside the body. It was time to go.

  39. Rose doesn’t know if she deserves to travel with the doctor. She isn’t very clever or funny, she is very very normal person. Actually she can’t find any reason which could explain why she is travelling with him. She thinks about that every day and sometimes she feels very bad. But in those moments there is always the Doctor and he hugs her and he try to reassure her. He said that every person in the word is important, so she musn’t feel bad or think that she was useless. And rose, thank to him and his words, smiles and starts to feel better.

  40. Some of my reputation I’ve earned, some of it – good, bad, or indifferent – wasn’t deserved. But that’s the nature of this life isn’t it? Make do with what you have and go as far as you can with it.
