Everything Goes BlackI know who I am, and I know that I'm me  And yet I still feel this way  Someday soon I hope that you'll see  All the things that I just couldn't say   
I've taken the stress as it circles around  And I'm coming apart at the seams  The slate seems to clean as the sun sinks down  Leaving naught but my own painted dreams   
Hear my words and know they're true  I can't bear another attack  Please just let me hold on to you  As everything goes black   
Most of my life I've been cold and alone  Staggering on through the dark  Through mountains and valleys littered Everything Goes Black
by ~BackslashEcho
A Good DayAlone in the blackness  No light to be had  No longer angry  Nor bitter nor sad   
I've made my choice  Don't read into this sigh  I hold no regrets  It's a good day to die   
In this life I have sought  To bring peace to all  Let's see how you like it  When your hero falls   
My efforts, I found  You fools have ignored  But you'll pay if I can't  Stop what's in store   
This world has been swamped  With the lazy and meek  Why don't you stand up  Just once, and think!   
If on this day  I go to my death  Then A Good Day

A Bright New Day? IIIThe young man with the old eyes sighed deeply as his steps took him within the city limits of Phoenix. before the night was through, he knew, this city too would be ablaze.   
And this time, he would be the one responsible.   
Perhaps, though--just perhaps--he could save the people living there. He had been to the Phoenix colony before; he had sheltered within their walls for a time, before they expelled him for no better reason than that he was a stranger. He cared not. he had long since become jaded and accepting of most people's paranoia--indeed, he would now be more suspicious of anyone who was too accepting.  &nb A Bright New Day? III

A Hero's PainTwisting, turning  Aching, burning  We are never  Truly ever  Free from all our pain  
 
Most will cry  Some may die  Few will fight  To find the light  And stand tall once again   
Rarer still  The pow'r to kill  And still be whole  In heart and soul  To suffer ever on   
Haunting verse  Immortal curse  Clenched fist  A Hero's tryst  To never see beyond... A Hero's Pain

You just stood there screaming
Fearing no one was listening to you
They say the empty can rattles the most
The sound of your own voice must soothe you

Hearing only what you want to hear
And knowing only what you've heard
You...You're smothered in tragedy
And you're out...to save...the world!

Journal XIII -- Hmph

  • Mood: Isolated
  • Listening to: "Brilliant Disguise" - Bruce Springsteen
  • Reading: Voyage of the Jerle Shannara: Ilse Witch
  • Watching: Death Note, this time.
  • Playing: League of Legends, when I can.
  • Eating: Nothing.
  • Drinking: Nothing.
It's been long enough, I suppose. Token update is token.

Still not much has come forth. The Bright New Day story is on hold temporarily so that a plot can be properly developed. Other than a few comments and perhaps a random poem here and there, I'll probably continue to be pretty quiet on here until that gets hammered out.

In other news (Translation: shit no one cares about), I'm hopeful that my long-standing dreadful luck with women may soon be taking an upward swing. To be honest, I'm doubting my chances with the girl that brought the hope back, but she's certainly convinced me to go back to playing the game. We'll see where things go from here.

Hmmm...I'm going to need a new deviantID soon, too, methinks.

Also, yes, you read that right, I'm watching more Japanese anime. Death Note this time. Goody. T'was a request from :iconnutmeg218:, and so I agreed.

Until next time, this is BackslashEcho saying:

"Always keep your foes confused. If they are never certain who you are or what you want, they cannot know what you are like to do next."

Here's to Hell, and to a broken heart. Here's to Hell, and to going back to the start.

In a faceless town
I need to feel the touch of a friend...

I wander far and wide
The isolation gets me again..."

But of course!

I'm a pyromaniac at heart myself, and a :+devwatch: seemed like the best way to see more as they come along. ^_^

Indeed. I'm quite envious of your talent ^^;, but on the other hand, I don't have time to learn it myself as I'd like to.
Therefore, we stick to writing! Huzzah!

"And you run and you run
To catch up with the sun
But it's sinking
And racing around to come up behind you again

"The sun is the same
In a relative way
But you're older
Shorter of breath, and one day closer to death"

I'm surprised a picture with a powerful pose and such clear-cut lines hasn't received more :+fav:s. I glanced through your gallery, but that one is without a doubt the strongest of them.

thank you very much it's actually kinda depressing sometimes there's 100s of people on here and only like 15 look at something that you spent 2 months on and actually turned out better than some of the popular stuff.it's really vexing i must say.
