I am a writer of words, sometimes some of them land. "A written word is the choicest of relics. It is something at once more intimate with us and more universal than any other work of art. It is the work of art nearest to life itself." ~Henry David Thoreau

Nostalgia tastes like smoke: 
Not the kind that chokes, 
but the whisper rising from old campfires, 
as the ashes curl in the shape of your name.
I burned my hands 
on the edges of yesterday
Trying to touch what was already gone
Wondering if I could shape it 
just right this time
If perhaps you and I 
could right the wrongs
Holding every ember like a vow
Sacred, scorching, mine.

The #VSS365 prompt was #nostalgia and the #VSSThreads prompt was #Burn

So...starting Monday I'm gonna have a go at trying to host my own writing prompt. "Not another one!" the writing community cried! I can only apologise.

Anyway, I'll be posting the prompt list along with the accompanying hashtag tomorrow so I would appreciate any RTs πŸ™

What if
Tomorrow
Whispered to
Tomorrow's yesterday

Would hell's devils
Remain quiet
In the rush
Of sin's mistake

In Time's dizzying
Stare down
Who concedes 
An outcome hidden

And in the cold
Expanse of
Forgotten space
Where memory slips

What if
Tomorrow
Simply
Didn't arrive

What if Tomorrow Whispered to Tomorrow's yesterday Would hell's devils Remain quiet In the rush Of sin's mistake In Time's dizzying Stare down Who concedes An outcome hidden And in the cold Expanse of Forgotten space Where memory slips What if Tomorrow Simply Didn't arrive

with the yearning
they rise

Two souls
      Colliding
Eclipse the silence
  Of the heart

This fire shared
An acceptance of surrender
And promise of becoming

in the yearning
they rise

Two souls
      Wanting
Bathe the ache
  In the heart

This gentle dream
A sanctuary of peace
And promise of transcending

they rise
with the yearning

with the yearning they rise Two souls Colliding Eclipse the silence Of the heart This fire shared An acceptance of surrender And promise of becoming in the yearning they rise Two souls Wanting Bathe the ache In the heart This gentle dream A sanctuary of peace And promise of transcending they rise with the yearning

Today is a good day to engage with every indie author's bookish posts that cross your timeline.

They're not your competition, and if you see them as such, you've already lost.
