Bring Me a Melody by TomKat14, literature

What would you do by SS-Swift, literature

Literature

What would you do

If I tried to kiss you. Would you be as scared as me? Would you let me? Would you stop me? Would you decide it should be regretted? I am too scared to take chances. Too afraid of the world. What would you do if I tried to hold you? Under any circumstance. Would you let me? Would I give you much of a choice? Oh how I wish I knew all the answers. I wish I knew what would happen if I took risks. But I can't. So I don't take them. But I want to. I want to take them with you. But I don't know if you would let me. I have no idea what you would do if I tried to be your best friend. If I wanted to share my secrets with you. I want

Paradoxes by Kateydid3, literature

Literature

Paradoxes

They are not themselves today – no, not now, and, in fact, never. They could never be seen so blindly as when they claim they know themselves. They are the will that never will again and the pain of the painkiller. They are the hand that cures all ailments and the hand that you are ill-advised to hold. They are the rich among the poor and the dying giving someone new life. They cry with joy for the once-lost found or love to hate those they've never known. They are the misery of gallows humor in one who forgot how to remember. They are the good in goodbye, and the bittersweet end

Gothix arise by SS-Swift, literature

Literature

Gothix arise

From human mothers we were born... But our true mother is one of the night... And our father is the swift claw of pain. We are merely foot soldiers, but our destiny is great. And our mission, mandatory. Our mark is the red lines on our skin... And our appearance... dark. We are to bring night, and suffering to this world of deceit. Our purpose in life is not to be amusement for those who deem themselves higher beings, but to show the world that pain, and misfortune, and lies belong, and will retake the world and send it into darkness. And from the jaws of death, and the fist of despair, we rise to take our vengeance, and we cry

No Use by ThatOneGirlWhoReads, literature

No Use

Struggling, but it was no use. The girl looked to be seventeen. Her red hair whipped about as her captors carried her to a large armored truck. Emerald eyes were swollen and red as they franticly watched the dark world around her, it's silence and stillness made her hope for someone, somewhere to hear her pitiful shrieks. Throat raw, it was no use. Her body crumbled to the floor in a pathetic heap. Looking up, the armored vehicle seemed larger on the inside than it had looked outside. "A hand, love?" She was gazing at a tall man in an off-white coat. His hair was blonde, dull, but nevertheless blonde. Sapphire irises staring her down a

What a Waste of Thyme

Would you consider time and thyme a rhyme? The words sound the same, although they are not. I've pondered myself into a confusing spot. Now, take for instance the following sentence that uses the words time and thyme. She ran out of time to cook the thyme. I have no idea why she

Our last winter by Anavushirak, literature

Our last winter

In the morning you leave. In the morning you say goodbye to me for what's most likely going to be the last time. We have had fun, haven't we? When we first met, all those years ago it was a beautiful winter. We were in a snowball fight. One side was at war with the other. All the children took advantage of the beautiful silver snow, and almost every child in town went outside to play. I remember I was on the side of the bridge closer to the old abandoned shack, and you were far on the other side. The fight started when a foolish child took too long to decide which team to be on. The first snow ball was thrown at him, then in a matter of s

The Mask At Last Comes Off

I'm breaking free Removing the mask Ending the show Coming clean I'm done with Acting Like nothing's wrong And smiling all the time I can't take it When people think I'm always smiling And happy The mask is coming off I'm learning to live Without a crutch Or comfort I'm getting used To the hurt And the loneliness Starting to live by my own rules I'm done following The status quo And getting blamed For breaking the rules I'm done with normal I'm sick of perfect I'm living crazy And loving it

Tears Hurt Most by allygrace, literature

Literature

Tears Hurt Most

I don't know why But it doesn't take much To make me cry Something will just Come over me And leave me sobbing For air Small things Large things In between things Why do I cry? I'm usually frustrated Or hurt Throw in some anger Voila A recipe for tears The saltwater blood That stays on your face And tickles your cheek They leave my eyes dry Stinging and tired They hurt so much That I cry because I'm not crying anymore Can I control the tears? I bite my tongue Choke back the hurt Control my voice And heal my ears But it's hard to escape The saltwater blood That stays poised And ready to attack At a moments not

I am trying to submit art but, I don't get it.
Please help.

I saw that you submitted a deviation, so did you figure it out?

Yeah.

Sure, no problem. There are two ways to submit art. The easiest is to go to our group homepage, look near the top, and click the "Submit Art" button that is on the long, dark blue strip labeled "Welcome Home". A box will come up, and you can choose which piece you would like to submit. Hit "Ok." Wait for the admins to read your piece, and then if it is approved you will be notified and it will be submitted to the gallery! Repeat this process with whatever pieces you want to submit. Please remember that we do not approve more than 2 submissions to the gallery per day, and that submissions expire if left in our mailbox too long. If you try to submit too many, chances are that many will not have a chance to get approved. I apologize for taking so long to return your message.

Would Gothic\Emo type stuff not be accepted?

Gothic/Emo is accepted, as long as it is not overly inappropriate. Each piece is judged individually, and their individual merits decide whether or not they are accepted. If you are not sure if a piece will be accepted, feel free to simply submit it--our admins will approve or deny it as they deem best. I apologize for taking so long to get back to you.
