Of Apples and Errors by DarkSoulDivinity, literature

Sacreligion by DarkSoulDivinity, literature

Literature

Sacreligion

Gone are the ribbons of prayer Silent are the voices of consolation Slack are the friendly faces Dead eyes staring upwards A grave miscarriage of justice Wounds not yet healed before a jury Enticed the magister's newborn fury But who are we to judge? Time's own prison, a captivation Drew the blood from innocence, elation For that which befalls the sky Will inevitably befall us all

Asylum by DarkSoulDivinity, literature

Literature

Asylum

Deep in the ravenous pit of my soul Where love once burned with a hellish fury I lie in wait, a vile revenant of what I once was Tortured and raped by your affection. My dark sanctuary is the last bastion A misbegotten hole in which I may fester It has become my serpentine salvation After all past defenses had crumbled at your feet Was I not so long ago the angel in this story? Battle weary but brave and bright eyed The Light's own agent of Love's forgotten truths My sword was my faith in you, my halo was our love Now I am corrupted and defiled, wings ripped apart Demon blood runs cold through blackened veins My eyes are windows

Age of Suicide by DarkSoulDivinity, literature

Literature

Age of Suicide

Baritone clouds descend and with them tears of depravity Falling like dying doves on a field of freshly slaughtered snow These naive children living in a violent and drunken fantasy Those who we pity for having ice instead of a human soul Their faith a shaken mockery of what passes for forged eternal light In the vipers nests they call their homes they scream "Can you hear us?" they cry as if a plea unto Heaven But the angels themselves turn a frozen ear The darkest of nights bears the fruit of their sweetest dreams As empty eyes in empty glasses carve their shattered reality The loveless and desperate crawled over each other, car

Suffice to Say by DarkSoulDivinity, literature

Literature

Suffice to Say

Not even my blood made you blush As you stared down at my body At what I once had been You didn't even think of saying sorry It might as well have been your hand That tore open my pale skin It may as well have been your guilt That bled me from within But you wouldn't even think it No you wouldn't even cry All I wanted was a second chance All I wanted was a try All I see now is a white cloud All I see is this bright light But a goodbye from me was not aloud You'd already given up the fight I watched you at my grave Heard the silence in your voice Now I'm dead you won't behave You might even rejoice I wish you all the best i

Broken Soil by DarkSoulDivinity, literature

Literature

Broken Soil

Dear Rose, It's time I said goodbye But before I explain my reasons why I want you to know that even gods can die And you wouldn't know until you try Please know that I will always love you Even if I know that you'll never love me too And even while my fondness for you grew Accepting my love for you was one thing she couldn't do Dearest, sweetest Rose, please know, You will always be in my dreams And even when my nightly screams drown you out Please know that it's you I dream about They're knocking on my door now, Rose So I'll have to say it soon Don't regret me, please don't forget me Rose And how I kissed you that June Ple

Battlefield: Life by DarkSoulDivinity, literature

Literature

Battlefield: Life

Well versed in the arts of deception We wage a blaming war on our parents Responsible for our shitty lives and contraception Our pain and our hatred all penciled in As deadly speckled eggs We watch, we wait, we anticipate our strike The silent and swift dagger in the night Feeling the glory of reddened skies Of wretched and wetted eyes Oh, how we dissapoint! What they sow, so shall we reap And you would think the battle was won But no, sweet things Life is a battlefield And we have only just begun

Homecoming by DarkSoulDivinity, literature

Literature

Homecoming

I am welcomed home this afternoon By children on their bicycles Treading golden dusk-lit roads Not knowing they are the future I am welcomed back this evening By the warm shoulders of my grandparents And the particular smell of their house Of three white cats and peppermint I am welcomed home tonight By talks of politics and racism And late night repeats Evoked by an old and dusty television But what welcomes me back the most Is the promises I made so many years ago In the selfish way of all young men That I should never, ever return

Prophet of Hearts by DarkSoulDivinity, literature

Literature

Prophet of Hearts

Twisted, scarred and screaming out I need you to hear it How it boils over itself in life And settles to a cold calling in death You need to hear it, and hear it today But nobody can hear my words A messenger without a voice A purpose without a performance Breaking ice on its very first choice But you will never know it Hand to heart to head to tongue Eyes as gold as they choose I'll drown before I let you take it This is a battle I'm not going to lose What is set in stone cannot be undone Hear me now with the voice of ages Feel the heat within the healing Acknowledging feather grey pages Hated ears and prodigal eyes I say

As Nature Intended by DarkSoulDivinity, literature

Literature

As Nature Intended

We all need a vacation Waking up amidst long grasses Seeing the sky in its burning glory As the sun drips over everything. To have tiny white moths Land on fairly clean fingertips With the wind blowing through our souls And not having to pay a cent We need to be away from our lives So far away if even for a day To laugh in the light of our innocence And play in the fields of yellow What have we become That we focus solely on desire That we are blind to our greatest need A need to be free

Writer No More

Deceased pencil sharpenings leak and Litter the openings of empty coffee cups Like brown paper cut outs Alongside ancient cigarette stumps Debris that used to mean something to me The sun is coming up in my own window My eyes are tiredly aching and embracing The grave chill burning before the warmth As once I remembered it I swear I remembered it I am alone in the twilight Nothing moves here Nothing lives here Something silently died here And it haunts me still I have no more pencils left, snapped My books are filled with shitty words Paper swamps the once clear floor This is the Waste of my World A failure, a writer no mo

Bitterblack by DarkSoulDivinity, literature

Literature

Bitterblack

I am the crumpled heap so many have been before The one with gritted teeth and bloody wrists, lying on the floor Who bites his tongue to hide his shame Who hurts his loved ones and embodies the blame. I am the thousands of tears that led up to this moment Who only needed to be warmly wiped away for comfort The senseless thinker who can take it no more The sad and the sorry one, who shuts and locks his door. I am the fears and insecurities, The doubts and unhappy families That haunt the world today I am the one who's selfish acts Have turned the world to grey With roses black and coffins concealed I am the wound in you that has

If These Walls Could Talk

If these walls could talk, boy They would tell you of coincidental fires Of children in their gutters Of termites in their wood. If these walls could talk, boy, They would tell you of clandestine affairs Of rats in their rafters Of bats in their belfries If these walls could talk, boy, They would talk of the drinking and the drugs Of snakes beyond their sight Of rain beyond their reach If these walls could talk, boy, They would tell you of broken lives and beaten wives Of blood on their floors Of ash in their foundations If these walls could talk, boy They would tell you of the shouting and the screaming Of cockroaches in t

'A long long time ago, I can still remember..

0 min read

Sorry, I rather like that song, and I was unable to come up with a better title. It has been...*counts on fingers*.... TOO LONG since I have last posted a journal up here. Anybody who probably did read what I wrote has probably died of old age by now, which is rather awkward actually, I must admit. I have a job now. Woot woot. Ok, so it's part time, and I'm still studying, and I don't have a car yet, and I'm probably doomed to be a vegetarian, despite my best efforts to the contrary, but I'm still ok with all that, begrudgingly. University is slowly but surely chuffing away at a busy pace, mind you I don't help things much, being the contr

Journal Entry 20 - Academia

0 min read

Hello everybody! (fake smile) Sorry, university life is getting to me. Yeah, it HAS been a while since I've written a journal entry, or anything on here really. It's a shame, I do so apologize if you've taken the effort to watch me and then been thoroughly disappointed by my lack of contribution in terms of written material. I'm a bad creature, and probably need to be burned at the stake, but more of the fun stuff later. To update since my last Journal in December (Yeah, I know, I told you I was bad) I am now at University. I have been since February, and before then I was dealing with my own problems. My life used to be so quiet. I remembe

Journal 19 - Crunchmas

0 min read

It was the night before Crunchmas, and all through the house, not a creature was stirring, not even the purple guard hippo of doom.... Not really, it's ACTUALLY Just become Saturday, but Christmas is in a week! And I got my first present! The present being my cool new premium membership, given to me by the one and only ~Youngblood101 (https://www.deviantart.com/youngblood101) (hope I did that right) but yeah, she's a talented writer, so help me pay her back by appreciating some of her devilishly wicked written pieces :) All in all, not much is new. The lover and I have a renewed passion for each other which is always incredibly awesome. Oh yeah, It's snowing....for the first ti

Hey there! How's it going? I wanted to thank you for the watch! I really appreciate the support and hopefully you'll enjoy my future works

Thanks for the watch

I notice you're from South Africa.

I've found that a lot of people here in the U.S. don't know much about their own country,

much less anyone else's.

I post prayer updates about different countries. Part of the reason is to raise awareness about what's going on in the rest of the world.

Recently I’ve started my own private initiative; if I notice someone on DA is from another country, if I've done their country I let them know. It’s my way of letting them know that

others are thinking about their home.

This update is about your home!
