The world called to them, set them up as martyrs for a cause that we all forgot. We sang and breathed the life of which they dreamed: a silver screen nightmare that tore under the wishes we placed upon them.

Not joking at all, it reads like spoken word, I had to read it over a few times just because I love it. And I don't think I've ever added someone else's post to my memories before. Still, dang.

I've meant to say this before, but your use of words is absolutely riveting. There's no artifice, it's just bare muscle and sinew. It stuns me.

Hi Danica, it's Luce - pippins_babies. Started a new journal, needed to de-clog, and wanted to keep you added. I know I don't comment much but I read all. Hope this is okay.

If all the above can be attributed to tequila, spend your life drunk and make a fortune writing poetry :).
