Pew by IronBell, literature

Literature

Pew

I. Your heart beats like a kettle drum, Heavy. Wild. Snarling to escape, Bloody. II. I say I want to be a writer, When it takes all I have To rise from bed in the morning. How do I concoct a net of words, A galaxy, Nebula, Without falling into the abyss? III. My heart rattles like a marble in a tin can. Timid. Weak. A staccato melody of someone older than my years. I am coughing blood and praying. IV. I am kneeling at your altar, A shadow cast by your wingspan. Holy. Engulfing. Overwhelming in your entirety. Your heart is casting a sermon While mine bows its head and nods.

Lock and Key by IronBell, literature

Literature

Lock and Key

I keep you locked away in a box, With dusty lockets and old yellowed pictures, Stuffed you in some corner of my mind Where only fragmented sentences and hopeless half-thoughts Live. I can feel you there. Like some odd breathing being, Tickling my daydreams. The more I think about not thinking about you, The looser that box top gets. You are setting off fireworks into my brain matter and Electrocuting my neurons.

Bouquet by IronBell, literature

Literature

Bouquet

You gave me a bunch of roses. I put them in a vase with a little water, left it stale and the roses died and I could think of all the ways that dying and dead roses are poetic but really they're ugly and they smell of rot when they die they lose color and they droop they have no strength they are feeble and while the roses were dying I wondered if somewhere you were giving roses to someone else who would take better care of them someone who would water them and talk to them and smell them daily I cannot be this person because flowers in a vase seem so sad to me if I wanted to bring joy to my house I'd hang Christmas lights or dream

Relation by IronBell, literature

Literature

Relation

Your smile reminds me That I'm not alone. I wish I was. --- We keep it in the family. I always end up Following you, No matter how many times you tell me to Stop. I eavesdrop and learn the fine art Of punishment. It is when I shackle myself To my own wrists, That I am truly alone. Even your smile cannot convince us That we are innocent. --- "You think I didn't hurt too?" "What do you want me to say?" "I want you to stop it." "I don't know how." --- You told me that you'd see me around. I said okay, went home to sleep, Finally warm. You never kept your promise and my bones Keep getting colder still. I don't remember

Sting by IronBell, literature

Literature

Sting

He kissed her lips and told her That she tasted sour. It was no surprise to her; She's been swallowing his lies for years. --- "Why aren't you ever sad?" Her little sister asks, her eyes Like moons. "I am." "Why don't you look sad?" She didn't reply, just folded a piece of Wrapping paper into a star and perched it On top of her sister's head. How could she ever explain that if you spent enough time Kissing monsters, You got used to the sting of their fangs?

And You, And I by IronBell, literature

Literature

And You, And I

Time didn't slow down for me. The obvious laid under my skin Like a splinter I chose to ignore. No matter how I scratched or pretended That it didn't get angrier with each passing day, I couldn't ignore it Waiting. Finally blood seeped from the puncture And I let it bleed, Aghast, As though I hadn't known it was coming. And I am the formal apology, And I am the screaming regret. Just don't forget about me When winter comes and you find yourself alone. Please.

Funny How It Is by IronBell, literature

Literature

Funny How It Is

9:54 a.m. She gets a beer bottle thrown at her head, And the cat is screaming for food; It hasn't been fed in days. 10:35 a.m. Her stepfather has passed out, drunk - He has gotten a head start on the day, And she is grateful. 11:00 a.m. Her mother gets home from work, finally, Says hello, smokes a cigarette, goes to bed. She steals the pack and smokes stick after stick Until she is nauseous and her hunger pains are gone. 1:12 p.m. He texts her, Asks if she wants to go to the park. She walks through the strange jungle of trailer homes To the scraggly community playground. He is the only one there because the afternoon is sco

Long time no see. Like, REALLY long time. I've been on Tumblr literally all the time. But I miss posting here. ANYWAY. I'm alive. I think I'll do some updating on my profile. Expect to see my cosplay updates and writing drabbles soon!

Karina tagged me! :D

0 min read

I finally feel important to her. She's been ignoring me lately, you know. :'( Karina, stop whoring around with those non-white girls and come home! 1. You must post these rules (very, VERY Important ) 2. Answer the questions the tagger set for you in their post, and create ten new questions for the people you tag to answer. 3. You have to choose 10 people to tag and post their icons on your journal. 4. Go to their pages and tell them you have tagged her/him. 5. No tag backs! 6. No crap in the tagging section about "you are tagged if you're reading this." My Questionss: 1. What did you eat for breakfast?! Cinnamon cheerios with strawb

MY CREATIVITY. WHY.

0 min read

So guys. I haven't posted worth shit. FUUU-- I really need to start writing again. Or drawing crap pictures at 3 a.m., the kind I look at in the morning and say, "What the fuck was I thinking?" Or doing something other than derping around on Netflix and posting on tumblr. I guess I could do homework. ...LOL. ~trollfaceplz (https://www.deviantart.com/trollfaceplz) I think :iconlioness-lindsey: and I should collaborate on pictures because I need something to do with my time other than [see above]. Now, back to Netflix. :iconokayguyplz: P.S. :iconkbarron10158: I'll do your tag soon. .____.
