    Ink

    I get ink stains on my fingers because I play with my pen when I’m thinking. And I’ll frequently end up with it on my face. Some girls get racoon eyes from their mascara. But I get this war paint in smears and streaks.

    • well earned war paint. But let your words bring peace, too.

    • Hoi hoi
      Love your write!
      I’d love to see you with Alice Cooper eyes (lol).
      If your small part of your small world is this much fun…..?
      Kind regards, Gus

    • Ugh, I used to have little blue “tattoos” on my mouth from putting the pen in it. I so relate to this one! Where would we be without it?

    Water Magic

    I wrote us on the glass of the shower the water hot on my bare skin And the words cried Little droplets  coalesced by my witchcraft and sorcery Little condensing bundles  of water magic that carry away the words  of my wish

    Shy?

    Nightmare (Life Is But a Dream)

    Inspired by: Sum 41 – Catching Firehttps://youtu.be/0HwXgNG-51A?si=rDqqBbwjaxgcddsLI feel like every day's a victory because I have these racing thoughts saying that everyone's against me I tell myself they're just delusions but it's hard to deny the world has gone to shit I just want to...

    • That’s a great piece Nick👍

    • This reminds me of “I Dreamed a Dream” from Les Miserable. We start out full of hope & sparkle & the world dulls our shine until there’s nothing left. Just bills to pay & the hope we go out on a good note rather than the usual shit. Totally feeling this one

      • The world gets too big I suppose. It’s never enough to stay in your own happiness. The world is designed to take and take. But also the older we get we are hit with reality. Losing people, losing friendships and so on. I think the thing that hurts the most is knowing when those moments are gone they are gone. There will be no other moments like them

        Thanks for the read, friend. Very much appreciate it.

    • Brilliantly penned, Nick. Into the book it belongs! This write has layers my friend, excellent work. Appreciate you.

    • This is the second time I have read this, and I want to think about it. Depression is a strange beast. Not suicidal but not feeling the same. will drop dead doing something you hate. That struck a cord. I used to like the job I do, but too many worms came out of the apple, and now I work. This is my passion. To write and see others do what they love to do.
      Now I’m rambling

      • For me the poem is rather my darkest depression. The world beats you down and some days I feel like I’m just going through the motions. As the poem says I’m not suicidal, but there is comfort in the idea that I choose the way rather than it being something, or somewhere I rather not be.

        Thanks for the read, friend.
