• Julia commented on the post, knows 5 months ago

    He knows that she know and they both keep wondering why the other doesn’t do anything about it, the elephant in the room. “Their relationship is deteriorating, a friend observes, and apparently they want to stand there and watch it wither.” But the truth is that they are paralyzed by fear.

  • Julia commented on the post, scatter 5 months ago

    The people scattered in front of him like so many particles of light, spinning and racing away. He couldn’t see through the glitter in his eyes; maybe they were just dancing. The drums behind him vibrated in his ears.

    Skin as soft as silk. Eyes like dark chocolate. Lips like strawberries. And oh, the dirt that stains them. In a voice of velvet, no less. You are an enigma. I think I know everything.

  • Julia wrote about the word poison 1 year, 9 months ago

    Like a poison you seep through my veins, permeating every part of me. Like a poison you’re insidious, dark, cunning. Like a poison you taste bitter on my lips. Like a poison you sting my heart. Like a poison you seize my mind.
    You’re killing me, but I don’t want to purge you.

  • Julia wrote about the word booth 2 years ago

    Photo booth phone booth restaurant booth. Small places where secret things can happen. Anonymity.
    He sat in the booth, way back in the dark, and observed people. It was boring at first, but soon he latched onto individuals that were interesting in the little quirks that they thought went unnoticed.

    “Feel my wrath,” he proclaimed, laughing maniacally. She just eyed him sideways. “Seriously?” she said. “You’re about as wrathful as a teddy bear.” “Ah, but you see,” he replied, “there’s lots of nasty things teddies can get up to. Haven’t you seen the– the, uh– the music video? You know, the one by Muse…” And [...]

    and I’m never feeling very domestic
    domesticated
    as my natural instincts kick in
    and all I want to do is
    hunt
    and sleep
    and eat
    and meet
    and sleep
    and sleep
    and have more sex

  • Julia wrote about the word forgotten 2 years ago

    Always forgotten. Every single time. He’d go to sing the words, get two lines in and then nothing. He regretted it, their collaboration. He could no longer sing those songs that her words were woven into now that he’d left her. He’d forever have a reminder of their long relationship; there was no escaping what [...]

  • Julia wrote about the word wasteland 2 years ago

    All around him is a wasteland, dusty and dry. It’s his mind; he’s trapped in his own head, searching for meaning. He needs water to quench the drought of his inspiration but he finds none. Until he digs deep into the ground and finds her, glowing with everything he’s tried so hard to repress. She [...]

  • Julia wrote about the word audience 2 years, 1 month ago

    They’re all there watching. And he knows he shouldn’t, but he looks for the one face he’d like to see, ignoring all others, not that they’d notice. He is singing and moving, doing his job, but he sings the words more strongly than ever; if she’s there, she’ll know. If she isn’t, maybe he’ll summon [...]

    Go!
    Like a woven scarf
    the thread never ends
    an infinite
    string of never ending strength
    holding itself together
    with only itself to depend on.
    Me.

  • Julia wrote about the word obsessed 2 years, 2 months ago

    Grasping. Trying to catch any moment he can with her. She floats, shimmering, in his vision like the mystical being he sometimes believes she is. He knows not why she captivates him so, only that she does. He’s not obsessed. He tells himself that many times, trying to make it true. **** She’s afraid. Afraid [...]

  • Julia wrote about the word chocolate 2 years, 3 months ago

    Ah, J’adore. Sweet and smooth, makes me smile. Stand upon stand, myriad treats mounted in an array of hearts and red. Truffles, bars, brownies, cookies, ice cream. Creamy, melty, dark, milk, white. A river, a mountain a cascade of delights. I have sweet teeth, not just a sweet tooth. Alas, my skin rebels mightily against [...]

  • Julia wrote about the word needle 2 years, 3 months ago

    It was like a thousand needles in his brain. He clutched at his head, nearly doubling over. There was too much noise, too much *everything*, and his senses were overloading. He had to get out. He ran, blindly, until his legs and lungs burned and he collapsed against a tree in the park. Breathing in [...]

  • Julia wrote about the word coward 2 years, 3 months ago

    “You’re such a coward,” she said, so sharply it could have cut him. He didn’t bleed, though, so he thought he was okay. But he wasn’t. Because the thing of it was, she was right, and he knew that. It didn’t make it hurt any less.
