《Ephemera | poetry》| When You left me at Dawn |
Advertisement
This warm sunlight burns my skin ; leaving ashes on my hands ; the very same hands where you kissed me Goodbye.
~S
Is this a nightmare,
Or a curse from the stars,
When you became my lifeline;
Just to cripple my heart,
I can't hold these marigolds,
These farewell flowers,
That dusk left me lifeless;
Our fantasy tore me apart,
This gold-dripped rooftop,
On whose edges I , now, stand,
The wind howling in my ears;
The sun stinging my glance,
This dawn in my life,
Drowns me in blue rims,
Pulling me deep into the waves;
With no surface to swim,
Those law-laced norms,
That we promised to escape,
You left me chained in them;
At this violent day-break,
Those red-inked parchments,
Our leather-bound notes,
You burnt them to nothing;
Leaving me hiding from hope,
It was into the wilderness,
Of those grain-kissed lands,
We were to rebel together;
But you buried me in sand,
You blinded me to happiness,
Lost in mountains so afar ; for,
Since the day you left me at dawn;
All my galaxies have been dark.

Those That Do Not Yet Exist

Pilot episodes to determine the reaction people have to them. Have fun!

The House Husband's Multiverse Fueled Journey From Mediocrity
"What existed before the Big Bang?", "Why are 7/11 taquitos so good?", and "What lies at the boundaries of our universe?" are all questions that have forever haunted the best and greatest minds humanity could offer. Questions which we may never hope to understand. At least, not until the ever expanding Multiverse beyond rips apart the boundaries we once had and absorbs our own little slice of Greater Space. In our return to relative civilization, how will humanity fare against the innumerable denizens of the countless stars beyond our own? Will we even survive our home planet, now refurbished with the mystical energy of the cosmos? John Mermous, house-husband-cum-author-cum-father, has absolutely no idea. But, if sci-fi space magic and annoying fairies can keep his daughter safe and reunite his family, he'll take whatever he can get. [Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] As such, expect some major edits after we pass the two milestones! I'll let your know if anything important changes, or if we're just cleaning up :) Watch the numbers go up in r e a l t i m e on NaNoWriMo under the same title!
