Heartbeat by ThaliaAnderson, literature

Literature

Heartbeat

The hollow drumbeats echo against the walls, beating beside my heart, swallowing me whole. I can’t move; I can’t breathe; my hands are frozen against my sides. The stillness chokes me until my silence is finally achieved. I think this is it. I think I’ll die here. I think the last thing I’ll ever see is the chipped painting on the ceiling, pushing its weight on down on me from above. It’s not until many hours later, hovering there in the dark, that I realize the one doing the choking is me.

Uncertain Sunlight by ThaliaAnderson, literature

Literature

Uncertain Sunlight

i. i am not one for poetry. bathe yourself in ambiguity. ii. vague is my forte. i’m sorry if you can’t see through these careful poems. iii. i use concise words to narrow the crack in the window of my soul. iv. i do not want you to see through my defenses. they’re there for a reason. v. i have a record of loving too deeply for my own well-being. vi. now, dear audience, please don’t mind me as i turn away from you now. vii. there is something i feel bursting from me just for the long friend i loved: viii. all i wanted was to keep you safe from monsters. can’t you forgive me? ix. don’t hold my hand

mutilation by ThaliaAnderson, literature

Literature

mutilation

there is something in me that needs to be let out i feel it beating against my chest pounding against my ribs warring in my belly to be unleashed at last. some deep hatred hides right beneath my skin, begging to be let free in a violent fit against the self. my hands are not artist’s tools or the writer’s pen. they are war machines knives and guns and daggers and cannons and razors and a soldier’s bitter agony; they are the bomb and my heart is the detonator, counting backwards down to one—down to that moment when all of this—air, earth, breath, life—explodes, blown to pieces, into nothingness. watch

let's be honest here for a second. by ThaliaAnderson, literature

Literature

let's be honest here for a second.

let’s be honest here for a second. you say you miss me but you walk out the door as soon as you come home you know he’s there, out there, waiting for you to come back and we both know you’d rather be with him than with me. it’s okay to tell the truth. it hurts a lot less than the lies. maybe i shouldn’t care, but— i live with you here & you’re the only one who knows the truth about who I am the only one in my future who knows about my past. please don’t say you miss me when you might want to stop feeling guilty about leaving me alone again to spend time with him. i don’t blame you maybe

cieleta by ThaliaAnderson, literature

Literature

cieleta

two years. two years since i last heard your voice. two years since you last said my name. two years since your last raspy laugh. two years since your blonde hair glinted in the sun. two years since you smiled at me. two years since. two years. i don't know why. i don't know why you took the pills or bled away through open arms or fell asleep hanging from the sky or pulled the trigger against a golden halo. i will never know. & i will never forgive myself for letting your suicide save my life. i woke up screaming & i went to bed screaming & i went to school screaming & i face every day screaming but my screams begin to sound like yours and

(I don't think anyone will comment on this, but I love this idea. <3 Plus, I couldn't miss out on using this lovely Vanille skin!) (Oh, and happy birthday deviantart! Anyone feel like continuing the story with me?) "The hollow drumbeats echo against the walls, beating beside my heart, swallowing me whole."

Hello!

0 min read

I haven't written here in quite awhile, so I just wanted to check in! I really want to get back into writing--I've been following more people here who are writers and poets, and since my creative writing class ended (and I did more editing than writing), I want an excuse to work with words again. I love the feel of creating something, so I hope someone becomes of my aspirations here. Anyway, that's all! Hopefully you'll see more of me soon. <3

Boston

0 min read

April is kind of a crazy month. I won't really be on dA at all until...probably after I graduate. BUT, I wanted to stop by and tell all my watchers/friends in Boston that I love you & I hope you're safe. I saw a video that a man took as the first two explosions happened, and I immediately started to cry. I can't even imagine. I hope you guys are alright, and I'm praying for everyone there. It's...it's horrifying. It's one thing to hear about it, and another one entirely to see it happen. Stay at home, and DO NOT go out. I don't have very many details, but I know that everyone is supposed to stay inside and DO NOT congregate with other group
