Memory Lane
The asphalt contorts, twists, and conforms to the wear,
Discoloured gray stretching onward, indefinitely
(I long for the end,
But I know it does not exist).
I cannot turn back, and I cannot look away,
I fumble through my mistakes; it’s like walking on glass
(It hurts
And I have to keep going).
The sleet cuts through my translucent skin
Etching all of my hurt down into my brittle bones
(You cannot see my scars,
But I can still feel them).
My knees crash into the cold gray asphalt,
Leaving dark smears and cracked fears
(Just let me go,
Let me fall into emptiness).

 reports, 1d 6h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on.
