The Breaks In Eternity

sheets calling with numbing lights pupils dilated by the slick concrete drifting off years slipped away now slowly waking to the whispering of the sun like fingertips along my side the furnatures been painted black and white the carpet has moved on and I am alone standing in blue

Dancefloor by LostInTheLights, literature

Literature

Dancefloor

A record is playing but no one can find The source of the music, the source of time So we’re helpless to listen to song after song Not knowing the words, not knowing how long I want to rewind to when the air was your staff Listen on repeat to the sound of your laugh I’d fast forward to sunsets and warm summer nights I’d skip over the songs that I didn’t like But instead we’re dancing to beats unknown Trying to dance in the shoes that we’ve grown And all we can do is smile and choose The people we dance with and the steps that we use Now I offer my hand to the opening notes I don’t see anyone el

Keyless Waltz by LostInTheLights, literature

Literature

Keyless Waltz

Blindfolded in a freshly painted room Looking for the key to a lock she can’t see Four walls of bright color only seen by the moon Searching gets her nothing but stains you can’t see She’s growing weary from taking chances Hopeful leaps of hope only to fall Every time she’s happy she dances But comes to find she’s imagined it all Wondering why they’ve all left her to dance alone And why even she doesn’t know what she seeks All she wants is the one to call her home She wants to taste wonder of which everyone speaks Shes still stumbling looking to get into her own heart In all the songs and storie

Summer Always Melts by LostInTheLights, literature

Literature

Summer Always Melts

Someday in some scorching summer Under a shining Saturday sun With simple seagulls saying Everyone should sample love and fun They laughed their little lives away Like long lighted lives tend to Listening to those legendary songs Like only the young do Then snow fell first one Friday For frigid nights befell And feathers became frozen summer love melted when no one could tell

I Know Something You Don't by LostInTheLights, literature

Literature

I Know Something You Don't

Silent power choking throats Root of deception and deceit of friends For the protection of precious anecdotes Putting on masks and playing pretend Weight on every shoulder Fear of prejudice or judgments’ axe Adding, growing, weighting like a boulder Translucent but ponderous emotional tax Little hands cupped to an ear Pinkie swear you won’t tell Read this when no ones hear Swear these words you won’t sell All shapes and sizes for every heart But to every one the secrets part

No Outlet by LostInTheLights, literature

Literature

No Outlet

I am running in circles on this worn brick track I can’t ever go forward and I can’t go back Every door I open up shows me the same room My thoughts are not my own but obsessions tomb No outlet No ending No outlet No escape No outlet No ending Is more than I can take I am running a hole in my mind With everything thoughts entwined But I can’t hope to fall through the floor cuz I can’t even think anymore No outlet No ending Is more than I can take No outlet No ending Is my only self hate

Photographs by I-Pretend-Im-Asian, literature

Literature

Photographs

Looking at the backs of old photographs Words written with ink decades old Long before the time I walked the earth Blond curls, bright smile White teeth, pink lips Virgin blue eyes and hands without wrinkles It’s very odd to think, mother You could have been my best friend Looking at the backs of old photographs Yellowed with age, but the words are missing Long before the time I walked the earth Red locks, expressionless mouth White teeth, pointed lips Blue-green eyes stained with blood she can’t see It’s very sad to think, grandma Of who you could have been Looking at the backs of old photographs Your mother&

Rosebuds by I-Pretend-Im-Asian, literature

Literature

Rosebuds

I’ve spoken in tongues of instability I’ve walked the earth with mismatching shoes The words I’ve heard don’t mean a thing to me These legs walk on with an eternity to lose I’ve heard the taunts and howls in my head The ones I know as a slumbering fate I sleep wrapped in his arms yet toss in my bed Warm embraces are scarce here but never too late A half-life half-lived is a tear shed and more Fears of a sob embedded in my breath A world that it seems only ignorant endure Yet the bliss is to me just a veil shielding death A beat and a rhythm that pounds out my ears The only companion to heartache left real

so I kindof abandoned dA for a while but now I'm back! its going to take me a while to get through all of my new deviations so if I normally comment on your stuff and haven't yet, don't feel offended or like I hated it I'm just slowly sloshing through about 700 deviations in my inbox *sigh*

Ugh

0 min read

so I'm sick right now and it sucks. I've done nothing for the past 2 days except watch tv for hours and hours and hours. This is like the worst possible time for me to be sick too because I really was looking forward to this weekend to be around friends and not just be alone with my own thoughts. Its when I'm alone in my head that I get all philosophical and emo and obsess. Of course, this is exactly what I've been doing. I want to stop caring but I do. I want to tell myself its not the way that it looks but I can't. I want to speak but I won't. I'm such a coward. ok now that thats over... I love Tina Fey. I thought everyone should know tha
