π April / 20s / Writeblr π
This is a place to keep my writing/poetry and occasional artwork, and you're welcome to look around.
Iβm working on something that will probably take me awhile (a long long hopefully not too long while lol)updates and snippets under #dead above. Until itβs finished, this blog helps me stay consistent, starve off procrastination and remember that life doesn't have to be empty. It can be warm and golden. I hope you wait for that sunrise. It's worth it. ~pfp icon is my first digital painting attempt.
I'm older than you, but you scare me sometimes. I worry about this anger that manifests inside you like a black hole, sucking in all the negativie feelings you have and spitting them out at the slightest trigger. You are better at talking about your feelings now, the black hole isn't as active. I feel like I've taught you alot about it being okay to be vulnerable, we've learnt alot about what we mean to each other and our intentions. But sometimes that black whole starts up again and I'll be none the wiser and that scares me sometimes.
Let's be honest.
Let's be truthful.
When you meet your own eyes in the mirror
Can you recognise or a least reconsider
The apathy
That you let cling to thee
It's carefully downing you
It feels a secure embrace
But you're afloat
You've lost the boat, to passion, to joy, to meaning
It's calling out
ahoy
Where did you go
I see your eyes meet mine in the mirror
I see what once was starting to flicker
Are you but a ghost
A lost dream turning thinner.
I love your writing and I just read your "Dead above" snippet/excerpt and I'm so intrigued and interesting in your plans for it as a whole, is this a snippet of a book your writing or another project.
Thank you! Dead above is the title of the book I'm writing and the post was a snippet from it, I intend to finish the first draft and be on the second by the end of this year and hopefully (fingers crossed) publish it. I have very limited knowledge about how to get published, but at the moment I'm just excited about the writing process. Thankyou for taking an interest, it's very motivating π
I saw @two-bees-poetry lady macbeth/macbeth poem π·and became inspired to try this format called (an okayish first attempt but a fun challenge) contrepulate poetry.
I have not interacted with your blog yet at all, I just saw it recommended, but may I say that the aesthetics, the color scheme, all the things of your profile are so crisp and fresh. It reminds me of a cucumber sandwich (I think it has cucumbers, cream cheese, sandwiched in bread and sliced for snacks with tea. I think. I've yet to try it). I just think it is very nice, so good job designing it.
Thankyouπ I've yet to try it either but now I'm craving it. I'm about to change my profile picture so the theme might not be as cucumber sandwichesque after, hopefully the flowers fits in the tea party lol.
My name is April and I can be quite the fool.
Sometimes this comfort rots. Sometimes this resting mocks me (about the life I want to live).
When I was little I was collecting all my future pains and putting them in a neat little line, each one climbing up the ladder of my spine. Because what is time, what does it matter when I could see the ending before I had even begun. It was like the Me that would live through broken glass and kicked in doors felt her heart beating so loudly she sent the sound back through time, and it found me in my room when everything was good. This organ we prescribe love to felt so much fear it ran back to a time before the palpitations.
I'll do it tomorrow I said yesterday I'll do it today I said tomorrow I'll do it yesterday I said today..
