Sometimes I don't realise I look like a creep, especially when I laugh out loud at my own scenarios 🤣🤣

Constellations don't give her hope, not really, but they do make despair #bearable, whether it's imaginary ones she draws in the sky or real ones etched into her skin. It's not the stars that count, but the lines between.

Rebirth is beyond her because life was an unwanted gift, a gift that can't be returned now because the #wrapper is marked. The only power she has now is to keep marking that wrapper, creating her own constellation of scars.

#vss365
If she only had the #power, she'd… she doesn't know. She spends a lot time thinking about power lately: who has it, how arbitrary it is, why it eludes her no matter how much she yearns for it, but never what she'd do if she had it. Some things are too dark, even for her.

Secret, silent, and at best,
Insinuated.

If evil were an objective thing
To would come in a shiny #wrapper
Veiling its center with “goodness”

I tear the #wrapper to find the same Necklace She'd worn with a note attached:

I'll always be with you. -C

I hurl It across the room.

"Liar!" I scream. I draw my knees up and bury my head.

A glow pulses before my blurry eyes. I blink, seeing It around my neck.

*No,* She whispers. #vss365

Hank stood awkwardly in the #doorway, feeling terribly exposed in front of a classroom of strangers. Deb paused mid-clause, and turned to see the cause of the disturbance.
The chalk slipped from her fingers, snapping as it hit the ground.
"Is he your boyfriend, miss?"
Deb drew a dagger.

A new path appears.

The #vss365 prompt for 7 September is: Doorway.

“Flowers you can get every year, but only with time the tree that shades your #doorway and grows into the house with each year's sun and rain.” (Mary Renault, The Last of the Wine)

She glanced at the all-consuming darkness in the #doorway, pulling the covers up to her eyes. Maybe pretending to be asleep would make it leave.

She could feel it watching. Always unseen. Always silent.

Her blood ran cold when a distorted voice cut through the room:

"Hello, old friend." #writing

She froze at the #doorway
that half-drunk smile begging to be let in
door wide open, me smiling back
but she needed the words
my clear-cut invitation
wouldn’t step a toe inside without it
so that night I shut the door tight
and kept a rope of garlic over my bed.

My father stood in the #doorway. I knew it was him from the burning red dot of his cigarette.
‘Come on kiddo, let me in,’ he’d say. ‘You can’t leave your old dad out in the cold.’
He was right. I couldn’t. Even though I wish I could. What would he want this time? Money. It was usually money. #vss365

Nothing feels better than having a friend getting as excited about your story as you are. Highest of compliments ngl.

If anyone has any tips or suggestions for a sprained wrist plus tendon pain in the hand pls feel free to comment! I am not entirely sure what's wrong with my tendons or why they hate it when I write. (Typing/using the mouse kills my hand tendons #chronicillness #chronicallyill #invisibleillness)

I'll be doing one marketing thing a day for my work. It's the tithe I must pay to the deranged elder god C'ap-it-alism. Oh, mighty profit, please accept this offering in your name. May you bless me with much engagement and conversion.

Micropoem about PTSD. It's always tough to be a survivor, but lately it's been *really* tough.

Today we salute that song that was on repeat for days or weeks or months during a mental health crisis and kept us going and now we can no longer stand to hear because it takes us right back to that dark time. We appreciate your service 🫡
