You're Not Alone

Dec 24, 2013

“Sometimes we lay aside our own troubles when we wipe away another's tears.” —Seneca By techgnotic (https://www.deviantart.com/techgnotic) Apart... Is no longer alone T his life is not easy; a winding, sometimes whimsical, sometimes tragic journey that ultimately finds terminus in the same common destination for each of us. No matter the brave, fierce constructs we build and serve that would have us believe we are each one of us all alone as we make this journey, we make our way toward the end of all things side-by-side in our community of the living each day defying death. Our paths may be wildly divergent—the way of the hungry and impov

In Search of Grace

In Search of Grace Emotions flowing unrestrained Bring mem'ries which before were chained And visions of my life gone past Are seen as through a darkened glass. Sweet memories of former days When happiness was still ablaze. The world then hugged me to its breast – My life was bright and I was blessed. Now distanced from my conscious thoughts I look behind and see I've bought This present time a-prick with thorns, A future full of winter storms. The choices made have brought me here – To loneliness and anguished tears. The clock can never be turned back For once it's lived the time has past. I came here with the highest hope

.dA has lost an artist.

kram666 http://kram666.deviantart.com/ :thumb327490582: :thumb327486774: http://grahamsym.deviantart.com/ ~Simon-Marks-Brother19 hours ago New member Hello all, This is Simon, Mark's brother, with the terribly sad news that Mark passed away last week. This was a huge shock to us all. I helped him set up his PC with all his drawing tools so knew how much he adored producing his bespoke digital artwork and how much the Deviant art community meant to him. On his behalf I'd like to thank you all for the friendship and support you've shown and would ask you to pause for a minute at 14:20 on Monday 1st October. With Kind Regards. Simo

Being Different by anjaleck, literature

Literature

Being Different

Being Different Alone, weary and frightened. Others around cannot reach through, Cannot scale the wall of difference. This is a curse. To see the colors of others' souls, And yet to not be seen. Invisible, like a ghost. Lost behind the barrier of difference. Apart from the world of substance. Lost, wandering, searching for something, And knowing not what. Dreams that torment with cruel hope. Children on a carousel, laughing with glee. Reminders of the isolation and separation. Apart, on the fringes, seen yet unseen, Here, yet not here. Always apart, always different, alone. Can anyone see a soul bleed? Can anyone feel a sha

The Whisperer by anjaleck, literature

Literature

The Whisperer

The Whisperer Insidious and damning, silent thoughts possess the mind. The Whisperer is stirring, its intent to undermine. The Whisperer is heartless, once it starts it won't let go. Its words are rarely spoken yet they fester in the soul. The Whisperer is mocking of achievements one attains. It twists the knife of failures with its sibilant refrain. It feeds on inner darkness to perpetuate its role. Destroying self-assurance and self-confidence its goal. Don't listen to the Whisperer! It tells you only lies. Don't be deceived although it wears your own familiar guise. Anjaleck © March 8, 2002

For You by anjaleck, literature

Literature

For You

For You So many things do remind me of you, The wind in the trees, the color of blue, The scent of the rain, grass covered with dew. These simple treasures remind me of you. Long nights spent talking, sometimes until two, Of deep, long discussions, finding things true, Walks through the forest, discovering new Treasures to take home and set out to view. Such simple pleasures, the sharing was grand. There’s so much more now that I understand. Wish you were here, I would give you my hand And we would go walking the woodlands again. I would then tell you of lessons I’ve learned, The triumphs I’ve had, of peace that&

Einfach Gedanken

Oct 31, 2011

Lichtblicke Manche Menschen wissen nicht, wie wichtig es ist, dass sie einfach da sind. Manche Menschen wissen nicht, wie gut es tut, sie nur zu sehen. Manche Menschen wissen nicht, wie tröstlich ihr gütiges Lächeln wirkt. Manche Menschen wissen nicht, wie wohltuend ihre Nähe ist. Manche Menschen wissen nicht, wie viel ärmer wir ohne sie wären. Manche Menschen wissen nicht, dass sie ein Geschenk des Himmels sind. Sie wüssten es, würden wir es ihnen sagen. (Paul Celan )

That sweet little mystery

That sweet little mystery :thumb284505866: Surrounded in dream Blowing in a bubble If I ever met you I will lose myself That sweet little mystery That blows the mind The space between us The distance between us Bind us makes us one In dream we are Not to have is to have :thumb272359933: So many times the what you get gets broken Just cause you got it, it drifts away What gets given gets taken And the taken given again Most of the time to another But the sweet little mystery Is so true that it will never come true :thumb276303055: O but to wish, to dream Makes us part of eternity Makes us all one again Sweet little mys
