  1. Severe, sever, it doesn’t matter if it’s got the E on the end, it’s still a harsh, cruel, hurtful word. Severe. Severe thunderstorms, where flash floods destroy your neighbourhood and lightning strikes cause fires. Severe injuries, changing your life, perhaps taking it. Severe anything, severing you from the life you lived before.

  2. A severe addiction, a disjoint from the brutal reality that warps him. Too severe too deal with but much more sever if left alone to be kept in the dark corner.

  3. The pain was too harsh. She couldn’t stand it anymore. It was awful. The pain of her leg was unbearable. It had been amputated by that damned car. Now she saw it lay wrapped in some shitty paper near her bed. It was an awful thing to see, as a reminder of how different her life was going to be from then on. Nothing would be the same anymore. I

  4. The clock ticked and I tried counting the seconds. I stopped at 567 because I figured it wasn’t helping my condition. I couldn’t move and I knew it. What was the point of rubbing it in?

  5. This word is harsh. Thats probably because they are synonyms. I would describe injuries as severe, or punishment as severe. I cant think of anything else to say besides YIKES. i LOVE

  6. The look in your eyes when I’ve disappointed you. It goes right through me and skims over the top of my soul like luggage in the x-ray conveyor. Your brow crinkles and I feel tears well up behind closed eyelids. Please, it’s too much.

  7. Punishment. Wind. Storms. I think about headaches & heartaches. I think about very strict parents, as in what’s the most severe trouble you’ve ever been in with your parents? With the law? In life? Hmmm That’s seems the most severe- life. What is severe in life? Why can’t something positive be severe? Why aren’t there severe kisses? Severe laughter? Even the idea of severe laughter is negative in connotation. You did something embarrassing; people laughed severely.

  8. How severe the pain was he could not tell. For the sound of his own heart beat filled his mind, and rang throughout his ears. His fear was summed up as correct when he looked down and saw the wounds so deep, how was he still alive? With a deep breath, he turned his face upward to see the person who had caused him all this pain. And who else did he see but the face of his love.

  11. Her face on the photo was severe. Like she dint want tobe photographed. She didn’t want to be frozen in time like that. More than a surly teenager. There as something dark and Oainful inside her. Something dark and dangerous that etch away at her soul.

  12. The way you treated me i never realized until now was severe, and not in a good way, but I do not hate you for it. I would actually like to thank you, because now I grew into a stronger person.

  13. The severe weather had everyone in a panic. The winds whipped around the house. The trees were bent almost in half. The sky was yellow. It was a tornado. The sirens went off. Which way was it coming and what would it hit?

  15. I have never had a severe injury. It is kind of strange though because I do sports that have high injury rates, gymnastics and taekwondo. I have had a lot of injuries though, just no broken bones or anything. I sprain things a lot.

  16. Severe head trauma. That’s what it said on the report. I shook my head, squinted, turned the paper upside down. Nothing worked. It still said “Severe head trauma.” It wasn’t possible.
    My boy’s a genius.

  17. The girl walked into the classroom. The door creaked a little bit. She looked around and everyone was sitting very upright in rows of wooden desks. Then she saw her. Standing at the front of the room.

  18. Life is rather severe and unfair, why would life choose to be so severe as to punish someone that has barely lived long enough to do anything worth punishment. Why is life so severe on Iliana, what has she done to deserve the punishment of cancer? Who could possible deserve the feeling of a slow creeping and unsure death?

  19. nothing in my life is that bad. i mean i guess my mom’s punishments can be a smidge severe, but she can be pretty chill about them after a little. i guess i’m actually pretty lucky. ya know, since i don’t have much to say about the word severe, it must mean i’ve got a pretty swell lie.

  20. The professor was so severe. His piercing blue eyes cold as ice seemed drill right into me. I’m usually good at making eye contact, but I had to look away.
    There was an awkward, uncomfortable silence.
    I now remembered why I hated being in his office. That severe, silent stare

  23. She’s not like that. She’s a kind person, but she’s very definite. She knows what is and what she is and she sticks to it. Some people would call that a bad thing. I don’t. I like knowing where I stand with her. It gives me a chance to be just as sharp as she is. It makes me more sure. It makes me more sure that I don’t want to know things the way she knows them, but want to keep my fluidity of belief.

  25. he looked around knowing it was a severe situation, he was very upset, scared and lonely, and without fail managed to get caught up multiple times. He looked at the navy blue coated arms-man, then back to his own gray outfit, sighing dramatically he didn’t think there would be a way out of it this time.

  26. “severe trauma” He said, rushing the stretcher through the ER. Dr. Owens closed the curtain behind him and started barking orders to the residents. “Page Dr. Shepherd, I think we need a CT here.” There was an empty look on his face. Nothing coming from your lead Trauma Surgeon.

  28. It’s not an admonition that hurts to hear, just one that reminds me I’m intruding. That I don’t quite belong here, yet. No matter how I want to.
    I can look down out of the pool office and see the water, turquoise, broken by the friend of mine, kicking. It’s beautiful, and the sunlight makes me wish I could go down. She waves up at me, knowing that I’m watching her, and I wish again that I could be down there. Be among the water molecules.

  29. severe is one of those funny words
    an elephant in the room
    an allegory of the dictionary
    her one story is his another
    he will exclaim severe!
    but she is calm
    and will not understand

  30. it makes me think about a teacher, when we were young who was very bad

  31. This is what my mom says her glasses make her look. But it’s just not true. She has this strange perception that your glasses determine your soul. I say false, false, false, it’s just who you are that does the trick.

    As Dr. Seuss says “Those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.”

    Eyes are the windows to the soul, so does this make eyeglasses the sills?

  32. My parents were extremely catholic!
    At one point my mother broke a wooden spoon over my ass for watching TV when I wasn’t supposed to be.

  33. Severe pain within in a broken heart. Mend it and take it back where it started. Why the fuck does the world have to be so harsh? Why did I have to see this part? Something I feel I could have missed. I dont like this shit.

  34. Kelli had severe headache. It was almost blinding. She thought the sun would hurt it, so she sat in her office all day and tried to work on her Mac. But the screen blurred and her head pounded and she couldn’t focus.

    It was like a dream when she found herself getting up from her computer, walking down the hall, and running out the doors into her sunny garden. Instantly she felt better.

  35. severe pain is aching through brittle bones. Softly breaking miniature pieces of them.

  36. It wasn’t what he had expected, if he were honest with himself. He had expected empathy. reassurance. Not reprimand. Not cruelty. But if he were honest with himself one moment more, he knew that Shyzab was right. He had lost her, and the road would be hard to find her, and he had to ask himself if it was still Charlotte who he was searching for.

  37. It is something that is over used and over protective. It causes harm, but is used in place of something as a fallback from to express deep distress on a situation

  38. The worst is when he yells. We’re not supposed to talk, even, during the tests, but he must be reading something else while we’re taking it. The noises are small at first — harsh breaths out through the mouth and back in — and escalate from tiny exasperated noises.

    by kate on 04.13.2011
  39. This life. It is painful. Yet so beautiful. It is a pendulum. Swinging back and forth. Good to bad. I prefer that though. I don’t want to be stuck in the middle. I don’t want to be stagnant. I want it severe. Good or bad, severe or else what’s life?
