Blank No More by emptyjester, literature

Literature

Blank No More

I always likened our relationship to an old record: tired, beaten, and worn, always a trusty part of the collection. Yet every time you take it out to play, you risk never hearing those favorite songs again. You were like that to me; as with each new milestone, I thought it might be too overwhelming for us to overcome. I just never though that the last chance I’d take on you, would lead to you skipping out completely. You always were the best cure for insomnia. Even a few years after you split, this remained true. I spent countless nights wide awake pouring my heart out on paper just trying to make some sense of the situation. My frien

In Due Time

It’s very early morning and I’m still awake; hardly any surprise there. The only thing unusual is this. This letter that is. I’m glad you enjoyed my blank letter. I thought it was more than appropriate considering the circumstances. For the past few months I have gotten a new letter on the 11th. For the past few months, I have been livid at your pathetic attempts to crawl back inside my life. I’ll admit that I find it mildly cute that they always arrived postage paid. The one that happened to come on a Saturday last month was particularly interesting. All this effort to make it seem like you’ve gone to extreme leng

Lonely Hearts by emptyjester, literature

Literature

Lonely Hearts

There's something about this world That makes me melancholy Maybe it's because we aren't even safe Within our own walls And since there's no one to trust We're all just lonely hearts Forgot to tie my shoes As I headed for the door Didn't bother me Until later in the day When you asked for them back Couldn't believe That I'd already walked A mile in your shoes They don't seem faded They don't seem worn But I'll take your word Just for today Only because you're a lonely heart She knows she's not fooling anyone With her bleached white smile And her spray-on tan She's just as insecure As the girl next door She's just anot

It's Common Sense, Judy... by emptyjester, literature

Literature

It's Common Sense, Judy...

A whole new day Begins with Commotion We didn't Wake up to it In fact we Slept right on through Until 4pm Judy She cried It's just Common sense Static's on the Radio tonight All night long We would drive home Except we ran out Of gasoline Two feet from Our doorstep Doesn't she notice? Her toe jam's Slowing the traffic Nobody's putting That foot to The peddle Forget Sunday at the Drive-In I'm tired Of writing things That make sense We aren't lazy It's just real hard To move a couch While we sit on it I didn't say I wanted to die Just that I wanted to kill myself It's just Common sense Judy She kept on

Literature

The Way You Go About

It's not as Bogus as you might Like to believe We aren't going Out of our minds It's just A touch of heatstroke Yesterday She painted my nails In class Just to see If I noticed Her Should of had My focus on The whiteboard Not her involuntary Canvass Today She's left me standing At the hypotenuse Hands full of posies Pockets full of sand Night is looming I just want To get home But trigonometry was Never my forte She was always The brains of This operation

Life Inside a Frying-Pan by emptyjester, literature

Literature

Life Inside a Frying-Pan

Everything must end Nothing lasts forever Except for diamonds I'm told Wish I had of given you one When I had the chance At least there would have been One lasting impression of me Perhaps in a different life This Romance resumed peacefully It's not that absurd of a thought Just because we aren't normal today Who says we weren't A couple of yerterday's ago? It's become a case of opposites The future we had invested in Is much more than a pipe dream And I'm using happy songs instead of sad To cure my lovesick heart On second thought That's the only thing That hasn't changed Now it's time For your side of the story Your d

Literature

Where Could You be...

What was I thinking? I can't believe I'm walking Should have waited for the bus What was the rush? I can't even turn the pages Well it's too late now The station's miles away And I've lost my change anyway It's ridiculous No one's home You never are anyway You're in another world Miles away from ordinary Leaving me alone To freeze in reality You're so cruel You know I've got Poor circulation Even if the music's picking up My mood's still stuck in the mud My what lovely eyes you have "All the better To stare a hole through you" I know that's what you're thinking Through unmoving lips Locked in a beautifully cruel remin

His Arms-Lonely Hearts Pt.II

If my heart sways I'll hang it for treason I could take the next forty off If it meant that my arms Could replace His You think I can take it But I just can't take it Knowing His arms are around you Seeing how happy it makes you It's starting to take its toll On my lonely heart Too late now Your actions are etched in history Blame it on poor timing Or on the weather Eitherway it doesn't matter His arms are Keeping you warm now We had it all planned Time was going to heal all wounds Guess my patience Outlasted your's Now we're both lonely hearts Except for His arms They seem to keep you perfect company They tell me ev

Prints

Wow, Do I ever use this journal on a regular basis? Anyhow I have news. I am going to be putting some of my deviations up as prints since dA has now made it possible for non-subscribe members to do such. The profits will be virtually non-existant of course, but my hope is to make enough to be able to upgrade to premium. I have two pics currently up, although I believe I might re-submitt them as their sizes don't permit a wide enough range of options. So please check it out, there will only be a few up for now, but if you have any requests on certain pics to be put in my prints gallery than let me know! Current deviations available as pri
