Literature

what does it feel like to be sober at a party?

sometimes you want to spit out your teeth because you’ve been grinding them so hard under a diaphanous coating of crimson lipstick; but you know the floors already freckled with confetti- aluminum and glass and paper- and the eburnean pearls tucked away in your mouth are not able to be recycled and sometimes it’s rivulets on the back of your neck, droplets dripping like honey, because the rooms heating up from people swarming like bees; as your cheeks burgeon like crimson roses your oversized sweater becomes your only source of safety- maybe from the constant touch of others, as they bump around like lost passengers at a train

your pupils become car lights as you attempt to peer through your eyelids- now stygian velveteen curtains blocking your view; the foreboding fog that lies ahead has become a consuming cloud- you don’t have asthma, but it’s becoming hard to breathe the fog feels heavy as it weighs on your chest, like an iron pressing down on your shirt, your skin- the wrinkles are normal, but they’re still trying to get the creases out of you; woebegone words drip from your lip, whymewhymewhyme, in the echoless darkness, there is no response and next is the yarn of your brain to come loose, and they tauntingly tell you to knit the spider-l

i think she drowned in midnight. by limehummingbird, literature

Literature

i think she drowned in midnight.

she almost always brought those two notebooks to lunch. if it wasn't those two, she always had some sort of paper and writing utensil with her. i think maybe i should have asked her why on the days she wore all black, she seemed to eat less and sketch more. she poked at her lunch most days, many times giving it to that girl with the name that sounded like an instrument; or some people at one of those tables in the corner of the lunchroom. there were some days she made a effort to actually eat the large things in her lunch and not give them away. she was prone to doing things like tossing a cookie or a thing of fruit snacks in my general dir

things I never told you. by littleblueraccoon, literature

Literature

things I never told you.

some poems feel like water. this one is more like sand, and I'm suffocating in the maw of a desert that was better left rusting its clairvoyance. it started one night when I remembered that I've kept everything you've ever given me: roses, faces, promises. I never really understood how to let things go, and when the thought of turning the things you'd touched away from my doorstep choked the poetry from my throat, I realized why. I keep reminding myself that I should probably be nicer to you, but I think you already know that I'm only capable of being nice when I'm cornered and out of ideas. and despite what you claim, you've never been

My Bio

I like to write poetry to express my deepest thoughts, feelings, rants, or observations. I'll give the warning that a lot is fictionalized, even if written in first person. I only hope everyone can seek to see things from a different perspective. I also like to doodle, because it relaxes me and gives me something to do when I am bored in class. I also play basketball and run! These two activities are my outlets out of reality for a bit. I am double majoring in English and Psychology. I am also a vegetarian, so VEGGIES UNITE!

I'm not sure what I want to do with my life yet, but I'll figure it out eventually.

Hello all, I apologize for the inactivity- I'm currently playing basketball and full-time student at college- but I am very active on my Instagram. I've been moving a lot of my work over there, as it gives me a way to merge visual art and poetry beautifully! I'd appreciate if you checked it out: @tangledtalespoetry. It'd mean the world if you could spread the word to others- I'd love to stay engaged with the dA community through that as well. Thanks for the love and support! Stay beautiful! :heart: https://www.instagram.com/tangledtalespoetry/ ^^^ The Link! :D
