Zum Verruecktwerden einschlafenGeschlachtet durch einen Kuss, die für immer zerschneidet,Zum Verruecktwerden einschlafen by ~anathematized-one
ich in den Träumen des atemlosen Schlafs, zu fallen.
Meine einzige Hoffnung ist, dass in solchen Träumen,
Sie können dort sein, um mich zu halten am Leben.
Sollten Sie noch nie zu wecken mich aus dem Schlaf
oder mit mir zusammen zu sein darin
würde ich mir wünschen nie aufwachen,
und dort in ewiger Wehklage zu bleiben.

The WallSome say I've hit the wall.The Wall by ~anathematized-one
They don't realise that
I have always been here,
leaning on the wall.
It is only now, the wall
wishes to fall upon me,
and I haven't got the skill
to hold it up anymore.
I used to hope that it
would fall the other way,
but I know it won't;
I have accepted that...
I just can't accept
it falling on me.
With how empty I am,
the weight will crush me out.
I just wish it would fall already.

The Pain of Going OverWhat is one to do when one feels like doing nothing more than to curl up and die, yet lacks both the motivation and will to do so? To care so deeply for a world that does not care for itself... it is as though the only option is to die—by either revolting and being murdered for it or to slaughter the ability to care in poisons and apathy. I do not wish to die, it is only a feeling that the inevitable is fast encroaching and there is nothing left but to wallow in despair. It is the most awful feeling to ever have—to care for a world that cares not for itself, for life and the amor fati...The Pain of Going Over by ~anathematized-one
IndentationDear deviantart,Indentation by ~FreyAlfheim
Why do you say "You may use spacing and indentation in order to generate a particular effect" when you don't actually let us control the indentation of our text?
Am I selfish to ask for a way to ensure that people see my words in a particular way?
When viewing a deviation, I can click the backwards P paragraph symbol thing to make it indent all the breaks, but it won't change the default appearance of the text.
I can put 5 spaces at the beginning of each paragraph to force indentation, but that only works for forward indentation (EDIT: And apparently doesn't work for Journals)
I just want text-indent and margin-left. That's all I ask.
Then I could have lines
___That stepped down
______Simply by stepping up
_________The left margin.
I could have lines of text
___that would overflow
___to the right.
___And I could make sure
that readers would see the
flow of the prose, with clear
paragraphs.
You give concrete poetry its own section, but it is filled with strai

LiesCome a little closerLies by ~SheHasDeadlyEyes
Not too close, just there is fine
Hold steady, arms length, astride
The fence
Patchouli makes my stomach churn
Never were my mother's words
I keep that as my own
Thoughts run rampant,
Stealing kisses of sleep if only for a tease to strike me down when I am at my lowest point again
Inquiry, mimicry falling short of expectation
Braise the flesh with eyelash, scented baby's breath and yearning grows, and fondness falters, thin.
I change the dirtied sheets, once in every sober breath that never comes.
I lied to make myself feel better.
The somber glow of burning heart-strings lights the path to self destruction.
