Literature

Sorrow Floats

Happiness disintegrates, left untended. Youth passes unnoticed as we become ourselves. Beauty sinks into wrinkles of time, but sorrow floats. Laughter bounces over pain, briefly, lightly, counterfeit. Makeup, jewels, candlelight disguise the cruelty of time, but sorrow floats. Misery suffocates a smile. Forsaken love lingers too long. Innocence is crushed beneath the weight of a broken heart. Dreams are stifled by reality, but sorrow floats. ~written 4/1/11

I'm Sorry by Maehem, literature

Literature

I'm Sorry

I'm sorry that I couldn't make you see what you had - what you were losing - that you were breaking me. I'm sorry that I was never sure whether you really understood what I was giving to you. I'm sorry that I never knew whether you really wanted me, or just wanted me around when I was giving you something you needed. I'm sorry that you couldn't give me a fraction of what I was giving you. I'm sorry that I trusted you. I'm sorry that you broke my trust. I'm sorry that you made it my fault for needing to be loved back - even just a little... and that I let you do it. I'm sorry that "I'll try" meant you couldn't say "Yes" bu

Before It's Too Late by Maehem, literature

Literature

Before It's Too Late

Perhaps you don't know what you're doing. Then again, perhaps you do. You asked me for everything. You asked me to open myself to you. I gave you my mind, heart, and body. I gave you my trust and needs. I showed you my fear, pain and hope. I let you touch my soul, and I let you guide my dreams. You've been starving my heart, neglecting my body. You have let me beg, then kept me waiting. You have twisted my mind, and let me blame myself. You have turned my grief around, and made it guilt. I have tried to show you the damage you're causing. I keep praying that you will see. You are breaking my trust, dissolving my will. You are b

When Later Is Now by Maehem, literature

Literature

When Later Is Now

When you overlook me because I will be there later, a piece of my heart breaks. When you forget to say goodnight because your mind is full of people you don't like, a piece of my heart breaks. When you don't notice my devotion because someone who doesn't love you has your attention, a piece of my heart breaks. When I need to be your first choice, but you choose me second

Unlovable Me by Maehem, literature

Literature

Unlovable Me

Ugly, lazy, lumpy - Worthless, miserable, crazy - I hear what I have been told. I see what I have been shown. Weird, awkward, clumsy - Deformed, disappointing, fat - Bombarded with loathing, I am blinded by what others see. Misfit, loser, pathetic - Freak, twisted, geek - I become less like me, reflecting more of what you see. Brainy, artsy, generous - Forgiving, funny, sweet - Contempt drips from compliments. Can I know what you will see? Forgettable, invisible, insignificant - Confusing, frustrating, exhausting - I struggle to see the beauty in me. Can I believe I'm good enough? All I see is flaws. Beloved, de

I'm Always Certain by Maehem, literature

Literature

I'm Always Certain

I think I know what's best for me. I'm sure I know my heart. I believe that I know love. I'm always certain, but seldom right. I have loved a dozen men. Each of them was right for me. I believe that I know love. I'm always certain, but seldom right. I thought that I could be happy. I knew that you wanted me. I believe that I know love. I'm always certain, but seldom right. I had no doubt that I loved you. I was convinced that you loved me. I believe that I know love. I'm always certain, but seldom right. ~written 3/16/11

Passing it on

0 min read

The only trouble with this is that I can't sketch worth a damn, so I would like to modify my offer to a piece of artwork.  I will be as flexible as I can. Please be patient with me, I will need time to get these projects finished, and really want recipients to be happy with what I do for them.  Thank you in advance for your patience, and have fun with this journal project! First Five Replies from : 1. Rubiconn (https://www.deviantart.com/rubiconn) - Finished 2. sinnedaria (https://www.deviantart.com/sinnedaria) - Thinking... 3.

I have seen a few artists posting this list, and taking up the challenge.  It seems like a great idea to me, so I'm reposting the list here, and when I'm stuck for ideas, maybe this list will rescue me from a fickle muse. If you haven't seen this Challenge List before, go ahead and copy it and jump on in!  Have fun with it, and be sure to post your associated projects alongside their list entry. THE LIST 1.
