  1. She watched him, through a crowd of people, she watched as blueish light slid off the side of his face. And she watched as the girl he was dancing with stole that light away, as she gently placed her lips at the nape of his neck. There was nothing then. The booming music of the club, the sweaty bodies pushing up against her, they all faded away. She turned and walked out of the pulsating room, whether it was her temples or the speakers, it was as though she was a grenade with the pin removed. She clutched at her heart, worried that she’d splatter to bits if she let go.

  4. He slammed the door, and threw down his sweater. He noticed that his tears tasted bitter, much like how his life had been these past three months. No matter what he did, he couldn’t block out the screams of his father and mother. All he felt was devastation.

  5. The feeling ate away at everything I had. It broke me apart and then hastily threw me back together- just to break it all down again. It was more pain and sadness than I could have ever imagined. Yet, I found myself motionless. Broken. Unable to move, or talk. I was devastated.

  6. Chad had never felt this emotion before. Not at this level. It shamed him to admit it now, especially since he’d lost his mother seven years before. Why was it his father’s death hit him harder than his mother’s had? Or was it simply that his mother had died in a hospital, surrounded by machines and nurses to act as a buffer, while the only one helping Chad wipe the blood spattering from their father’s lips was his little sister. Yes, dark and endless beneath the numbness and panic, he was devastated. Pretty appropriate start for the apocalypse.

  10. It was like the world had just…stopped. Everything around her slowed for several moments, before suddenly rushing back to her in fast forward; Summer, Danny, Levi, Bri- Danny..
    It was devastation. All over the floor, in the buildings, in her chest. Devastated. That was all she felt now.

  11. Du gehst,
    lässt uns allein zurück.
    Du schaust nur nach vorne,
    siehst die Scherben nicht.
    Du gehst,
    alles geht zu bruch.
    Doch du siehst es nicht.

  12. I was devastated by the way I have been treated by my ex. They are mean but with recent changes that i hope continue to happen things can get better. I do not wish to feel this way anymore I just want some happiness.

  13. I can imagine her body slowly drifting through the water, fish pecking at her flesh and seaweed becoming entangled in her limbs. I can see it all happening, her empty vacant expression and the way her body is twisted in all the wrong ways from being dashed against the rocks.

  14. Devastation is the worst feeling. You know when you’ve failed at something you wanted so badly. But that doesn’t mean that you give up and stop there. No! You get back up and train harder, get better, and go back after it next time. Don’t let devastation stop you from reaching your goals. Let it fuel your passion for success.

  15. When something blindsides you, it knocks you off your feet. The impact devastates your perception of reality. You cannot breathe and your mind swims like a salmon going against his school.

  16. I still remember the moment that it happened. The three words that completely devastated all remnants of my life as I knew it. I would be a different man for hearing it uttered. My friends would miss me and I them. My family would cry and so would I. All freedom as I knew it would be stripped away from me. As the doctor said the words to me I knew that I would change nothing in my life to stop these words. “Your baby boy,” the doctor said to me handing over that bundle of tiny, crying flesh.

  17. How does one become devastated. Putting too much value in certain thoughts. If you allow yourself to have so much value is a particular thought and that experience resulting from your thoughts isn’t what you wanted you will then experience devastation.

  18. Cassie squinted and leaned closer, trying to decipher. One brief phone call had apparently forced her sister to abandon English. Her words were as intelligible as elvish or Klingon. “What?” Cassie asked again. Her sister yelled more of her gibberish, furious tears streaking her face. “She’s dead, Cassie! Do you hear me? Dead!” Cassie shook her head. “No, I don’t understand.”

  20. The state of the economy is devastating to most of the people in the county today. The environment additionally adds to the devastated effect people have experienced through things which has occurred in their lives. Devastated, yet hopeful because of Jesus Christ and his grace which covers all.

  21. Devastation reminds me of pure washing away of everything that you know, believe, dream, live, love, feel, reach, smell and hope in. Sometimes God washes away the old to bring forth the new. Just as the seasons change and new growth abounds, devastation can lead to new life. Do not dwell on the former things, but look ahead for what is to come. Be hopeful in all things.

  22. I was absolutely devastated. I had never had my heart crushed into a million pieces. It felt like I was genuinely going to die. I heard his heart beat one last time before he fell into the darkness,

  23. She just couldn’t believe it, everything she worked so hard for was simply gone. Not a single bit of product left. She felt completely devastated. How could anyone do this? What demon would possess someone to destroy her life’s hard work.

  24. Frustration of not knowing what to do next. Sad. Very sad. Exhausted. Things not going according to self. Cry. Conquer the sadness.

  25. I was devastated by her reply. After mustering up the question of all questions and asking for her hand, she looked down at the ground. Then up to the sky and started to cry. But she never answered my question.

  26. There was a time when I thought that everything was meant to happen exactly as it should. I used to believe that every single thing had a purpose and that would reveal itself once I had the time to piece the different parts together once I had a moment to think and reflect. BUT….but not everything that happens is a good change. Not everything that happens you can control….and that part can be devastating.

  29. Devastation is a foreign concept for me I am one of those who can always see the upside.

  30. It was devastating the whole thing. it isn’t easy to lose a young cheerful life. But after time fades and the pain becomes more bearable, we find that we are able to live without them but still, we never truly let go.

  31. Devastation. You see it everywhere. People will always be devastated. sometimes about the littlest of things. but to the them, it’ll feel like the biggest problem in the world. sometimes we just have to let that go, and think about other people facing real, life-altering problems and try and put our own petty problems aside long enough to keep them in our thoughts.

  33. It is when things don’t go the same way as you plan. It is n event or situation that you don’t know how to handle or process. It wasn’t planed it is a interruption. It seem to be unfixible. Not much hope. Shocked.

  34. The airplanes whirled above head across the desolate landscape.

    Below, there was no sign of life anywhere. Bland coffee-colored dust spanned the plains and valleys for as far as the eye could see.

    The pilot turned around and looked at his copilot. “Did we take a wrong turn somewhere?”

  40. I was never feeling so devastated. I lost the person I loved most in the world for the second time. This was even worse because I found out she was out there all the time not needing me to save her. She was indifferent, not even looking for me when she learned where I was.
