Poem request just for Ominis? No MC, no other characters, just him? Idlove something melancholy.

A burden rests upon a soul wrought and weary, the weight of history bearing down. Endured in quiet agony, a profound legacy is left behind, and my hands are pried open to reclaim.

The significance of it all…

It is where webbed truths remain veiled in shadows, catching stray hopes, preying on promises.

And with the familial bond bared, I am an oversight, deemed over sight, haze so profound, so permanent.

This reality is rooted firmly in tragedy and all that it has toiled.

Thoughts dwell in the depths, where whispers long to linger, embracing my deepest fears with a tender touch that unveils vulnerability amidst villains.

Dark inheritance mars the days past and present, with future on the cusp;

I grapple with the foreshadowing, the black clouds, the miasma that threatens to engulf, encroaching.

But it is overcast; caught in limbo of what was, what is, what could be. Freedom eludes me. Liberation, lies. Escape, forbids.

These shadows entwine, tendrils delicately woven through my veins.

A stagnant inheritance of sorrow. Gold with the tarnish of ash. A kingdom’s throne of thorns.

Enveloped in contemplation, I delve to uncharted territories of my being.

These lungs crave a mere respite of radiance, capable of piercing the unwavering void.

And in isolation, a fragile flicker moves within, celebrating defiance of the oppressive darkness.

To escape this prison constructed by kin, to let my blood, to wash it clean, such filth in purity;

The irony is not lost on me. I beg, sanctuary. I remain, all-seeing.

I have seen… enough.

Protective prompts

Perhaps i should phrase myself better. You. Wont. Lay. A. Single. Finger. On. Her.

Yeah, I killed him. I won't apologize for that.

He had it coming.

"He was asking for it." "For a beat-up?" "Yeah."

I don't care if you want me here or not. I'm staying.

You're in a hospital because of them and I'll put in a morgue everyone who is responsible for that.

He said what?!

"He had it coming." "you killed him." "Exactly."

He was asking for it.

You have my permission to kill him whenever you like, darlin'.

Are you falling in love with me, hon'?

You're playing a dangerous game, darlin'.

"My father wants to meet you." "I swear, one single bad word about you comes out od his mouth... I'll kill him."

You’ll stay by my side until I tell you so.

„You’d defy the gods, only for me?” „i would destroy the gods for you.”

You can change what you do but you cant change what you want.

If I cant have you no one should.

*someone’s bothering her* him: would you like to fuck off?

How many drinks would it take to make you mine?

Who. Did. This. To. You?

You don't want to make me jealous, honey.

Prompt: 6

There was something holy about her but in the way a natural disaster was considered an 'act of god.'

writing prompts! all about the ache edition

it's just such a good word, okay?

how much longer will my bones keep aching?

my fingertips are bruised, my head is aching

you were aching and the agony from dusk until the dawn

and my aching emotions left alone with the memories I shudder to reveal

he was aching for his own but I made him mine

you lie down and wait for the aching to subside

when your head tells you it's aching but the source point is unfound

but there is an aching beauty in the way you paint the paper

depths of a heart, pumping 'til I ache, reaching for what is gone

there's an ache beneath his tongue when he opens up his mouth

skin will ache when it's being made new

I ache when the doors are closed, when the floorboards sit quiet for too long

my feet shift in boots and ache after loving the ground for too long

I spent days layering paint over paint to replicate the ache in my being

there were things I ached to tell you before it all slipped away

can't sleep for hours, now my head aches

the glass that creaks and aches when I peer from inside to outside is not an ambient sound of happenstance

it aches, and almost all the time

even the dead have delights, even the sun aches to rise

it aches, it eats me and I still don't know its name

the blood runs sweet over the ache in my skin

there's a pleasant ache in goodbye, in knowing that I'll see you again

take away the aches and I don't think I could take it

she waits like a dewdrop for the effervescent ache of disappearing

you are the ache, and despise the way I cannot let you go

a tragedy of (choose your own) proportions

a prompt: one of my favorite things about poetry is the way you can write about one thing and make it about something else entirely. The challenge: write about a minor inconvenience as though it was a soul-crushing event (maybe it was!) Make the title the event and tag me so I can read it!

NaPoWriMo Prompts

Hello everybody!

I was inspired by @fragiledewdrop's @versesforthedew prompts two years ago, which really got me writing for some of her prompts. So, I'd figured I'd do the same for this month. Like with her poetry prompts, they could be used for prose too (and could help out with your book!)

If you tag me at @betweenthetimeandsound, I'll find your work and reblog them.

addicted to tragedy

half-naked beauty

running without a pursuer

revolt of the angels

a dying rose

crucifixion

bleeding lips

walking on ice

the undefeated

hypocrisy

an era of discontent

there she goes...

despair and hope

for love to replace your shame

broken jade

ritual sacrifice

apocalypse

until eternity

bright red

emptiness

perilous time

habits of the soul

cigar-laced kiss

sunken cost

heavy in your arms

the blue of my oblivion

paradise

figments in watercolor

my sister's crown

resurrection

I look at you while you're cooking. Hair tied up. A rogue hair strand of your hair falls in your eyes. You laugh and look at me asking me to get it off your face. I fix your hair and try to fight this feeling. I want to hug you from the back. Hold you as you're making dinner. And rest my head on your shoulder. "Why are you looking at me like that?" You ask. "I just zoned out" I reply and you shrug. Oh my love how can you not know how beautiful you are?

“They met again after years” prompts:

You’re married?

You’re even more beautiful than I’ve remembered.

You’ve waited for me this whole time?

Look at you! You’re so big now.

“You turned out alright.” “Not thanks to you.”

Do you like what you see?

You look just like her.

I have the letters you wrote me.

Do you remember how tangled we got in our feelings?

I still wear the smile you gave me.

I was gonna marry you…

Where have you been all this time?

Why didn’t you call? Even once?

You have a daughter?

You got married?

I missed you.

My oh my, how does time fly.

“I’m stronger now.” “I see.”

Do you like what you’ve become?

I was gonna ask you to marry me.

You left without a word of explanation.

“I’m not a child anymore.” “I can see that.”

hello~ I'm trying something special for the month of October and would love for you to join me! I've created 9 poetry prompts, inspired by inktober, to gather up the creepy cozy vibes for autumn's pinnacle. The intersection of creepy and cozy is where I feel the most inspired, so I'm hoping these one word prompts invoke creativity for us all! I'll be starting on October 1st, and my personal challenge is to fill the whole board, but if you play along with me, you could just shoot for a bingo! We can use this opportunity to shine some light on old work or conjure up something entirely new. If you use my prompts, please tag me! I'd love to see them being used!

a bit of advice:

order dessert before dinner whenever you can. get the really rich option, the oreo cheesecake or chocolate mouse. lick warm, melty whipped cream off the backside of your spoon, scoop the chocolate clean off the plate, sit back and sigh and lament that you might have not saved enough room for dinner, without an ounce of regret, and then go on to finish the bread and oil and your entire bowl of pasta too. look utterly confused anytime anyone brings up their new diet, or how they need to work out before dinner, or that they are just soooo bloated, or how they just need to lose that last 5 pounds. act as if it is the most absurd thing you have heard that someone would even consider cutting calories or passing on warm cookies fresh out of the oven or ignoring the pleasure of eating a whole bag of pink starbursts in one sitting. picture yourself at age three, often. think about a time before dance classes or diet culture or tiny runway models or tumblr of 2012 got it’s hands on you. remember the way your belly rolls looked extra cute in your purple butterfly swimsuit with watermelon juice covering your sticky salt water fingers, braids wildly unkempt from summertime play (and then remember that nothing has changed with age except that now you have a blue butterfly swimsuit instead of purple). and when you can’t show up for yourself to feed this adult body that has to face the world, feed yourself at three years old, giggly and chubby, sweet talking in hopes for a second popsicle. let them know that they can have three popsicles if they want, and that tonight, we will even order our dessert before dinner.

writing prompts! all about sleep edition

and it troubled me and worried my sleep

but for the faces I saw in my half-sleep

do the stars retreat behind the blue to sleep in their ocean beds?

life is more than words spoken in your sleep

too old to move, too young to sleep

I need an avalanche to wake me from this sleep

I don't mind a little swimming if it helps you sleep

sleep is just my nemesis of sorts, something I chase without reprieve

I'll sleep again knowing I can't hide my guilt

I sent you sunflowers, will you sing me to sleep?

I can hardly dream if I don't sleep

what elixir are we drinking tonight? will it help us sleep while our eyes are open wide?

we must be quiet because the monsters are sleeping

winter was ages ago. I'm still sleeping it off

the quiet of a sleeping house

they say go to sleep, that sleeping is a must

if I stitched your constellations to the quilt of my night sky, would you watch over me as I slept?

he never had a body but he slept beside me on the bed

I emptied my intentions into the lake where I slept

and as I slept, I dreamed

while you're sleeping I am waiting for your lungs disappear

the city sleeps behind us in the rearview mirror

I'm holding onto the gravity before sleep can claim my soul

there's an empty bit of sorrow when sleep arrives to take its toll

and when I sleep beside you there is nothing left to fear

[kaleb-is-definitely-sane]

It’s wild to me that people will write sentences, do a little line break, and call it poetry. Like first of all that’s a poem (yes, technically that is a poem) but it’s not poetry! Meanwhile, I pour out the entirety of my soul into my work, labor over every individual word choice, never post a poem until i’m at least 80% sure that it’s at least adequate… and yet i still have this creeping dread that I’ll never be good enough to be loved nor admired.
