The smoke on the wind carries your name.
The whispered sigh of remembrance
Of bygone days.
I remember the scent of the elder pine and moss,
On the day you led me into the forest
With the promises of love.
Honey, you're wild like the life hidden from sight,
That crawls through the leaves and awakens at midnight.
Like embers of a fire that never goes out,
With the intention to burn the whole world down
If given the chance.
If given the chance.
If only to be given the chance.
You weep by the light of the moon,
And I, I capture your tears in a bottle
For safekeeping or spells,
Only time can tell.

Awake from Strange Dreams
Awake from an acid dream
Waiting for the instructor of
Cemeteries and dancing;
Of discovery of warm progress
Panic laced with electric fear.
Enter through the screaming Christ.
Heaven and Hell and
Hope, is just a word.
I am made of few rags.
Panther skin and stars.
I’ll tell you about the storm winds.
The great visitation of energy;
It’s no problem.
Only the ink black darkness of the cavern is left.
Take leave, and take lessons
In becoming the moon.
In roaming and bickering and
Lighting matchboxes
The beauty of dreams dying at your parents gate.
Listen, what’s done to me is
Penciled in heaven whilst
The groaning o
Falling, you echo
your voice caught on the backs of rocks,
their sharp fingers extending to arrest
you.
Too late.
Icarus, you've lost your wings and
are now damned
to living with your feet planted firmly on the ground.
But your head can stay in the clouds.
Dreamer, eyes of blue but your
Soul is on fire, burning
with the weight of the sun captured
in a god-shaped hole in your chest.
Lodged fast like a bullet with no exit wound.
Magic drips from your fingertips
Pooling like moonlight upon the floor.
I could paint your visage in the aftermath,
but it wouldn't do you justice.
No. I could never do your justice.
Throwing shadows with the ghosts of memories.
I've got them in abundance.
The room is always crowded
when I'm alone
Cast runes.
Cast fires.
Cast...
Me.
Pain is a healer when pain becomes a disease.
Life is concentrated into the ebb of spider silk in the breeze,
Of dead candle wicks in bare hearts or hands.
I.
Westbound.
I dreamed of you like summer rain
Melting into the headlights of this city.
II.
You were a mirage.
And I, a dream.
Two illusions that were converging;
Into opposite realities.
III.
Twisting away,
Fate had other plans and
We burned our bridges for one another.
IV.
No one said it would be easy.
Your Lou Reed cool won’t save you now.
Those leathers won’t protect the soul from the highway.
Only the skin.
Only ever the skin.
V.
San Francisco fog,
Or maybe London.
It’s more dense and clings to the skin.
Old, like gods, whispering.
I’d like to be like the fog.
Dissipate with the wind.
VI.

What's the antidote for belladonna? Pupils like supermassive black holes resting under midnight shade eyelashes. In this room, I rest my head on my right hand, breathing in and out electric fumes, that look like rays of sunshine in the water. I reach my hand to catch them but they dissolve into azure particles of thin air, landing in drops on the corner of your eye. I seem so paralyzed, and so do you. My head is too heavy for my neck. I had a hard time hitting C6 today, and I'm thinking about how, maybe, it doesn't matter and how If I just spread my arms I could probably swim to the ceiling. I take a deep breath and choke on indigo, while I see you turning teal. There's nothing you can do to keep me on the ground. I wish I had the antidote for you, but I don't, and, suddenly, you don't even exist in here with me, and maybe I don't exist, either. The curtains are crashing the floor and I'm hearing the sound of the waves, and count. One, two, three, four. This is how I know I
There is a map which resides upon my skin Where streams spill into rivers against discolored sands Along with the many trails of pricks and prods that became part of the linguistics of it all
Deviantart is dying and the current community proves it. We, who use this for years, build something, meet awesome people and artists, we who spend time and money, now we no longer have the right to complain, otherwise you are called a crybaby by children or by people with pathetic portfolios who tell you to go to another website. The world is cruel, full of stupid people and filled of cowards hiding behind monitors. We live in times where respect, honor and compassion are seen as a joke, a time when a bunch of cowards call themselves badass. This is sad, pathetic and self-destructive. Let's see where this goes. As long as something still exists around here, I think I'll keep trying. Here was a great place, full of stories, with great people who respected each other and who helped me without even knowing it. If you are part of these cowards who simply attack anyone who criticizes the eclipse, just comment here so i can block you. What I would like to say is: Thank you for everything
It's a funny thing about muses.
You can go for a long time, and be bone-dry creativity wise. Then, something, or someone, happens in your life and it's like, well if clichés can be forgiven; a flower blooming after a long winter. It starts out small, a glimmer of rejuvenation, of possibilities, of new beginnings.
Everything sort of goes in a circle. This, shouldn't be as funny as it is. Do we just keep going in circles until we get it right? How do we know when it's right? I guess it's pretty safe to say when we know it's wrong.
Maybe that's the point.
I guess I'm rambling.
Questioning if this account is past the point of rejuvenati
I don't know how to do anything on here anymore.
It's funny how even after years, songs and certain things can remind you of people out of the blue and you sort of get nostalgic for the memories.
I have over a thousand messages on here. The hell, man. Sorry if I don't comment on anybody's stuff.
