Other April 2013 Challenge--The Challenge is Over!

[Ninva]

I came too late. School just finished up for me, but I'm not going out of my way to start a new project that will last me the whole day.

 

[Feantari]

I begin with weariness. A great weight and lassitude, my gestation begins in mockery.

​

In defeat or escape, hollow hope or desperate need call me into being. ​

I grow and stretch through wild ephemerate shape and color.​

Sounds strange and new are full of meaning​

and nothingness as I learn emotions.​

Now in the calm I am born.​

Stepping forth fully taught​

my birth once again is backwards.​

Hush now, I must be silent.​

My form once heavy now is light as air​

gliding effortlessly through the hall.​

My purpose just as light​

leaves but one direction.​

Through the door it leads me​

to the leaves upon the grass​

and I dance.​

Whirl of color, ​

fierce and strong,​

I spin and laugh, ​

dancing.​

(Birth from Sleep, Dust Devil)

"How long have I wandered in this place?


Where did I come from and where am I going?


Everything thing here is the color of sand. One day, I will be to.


There is nothing else out here, just the sand.


I once had a name.


But now, I am simply...


The Lost

Birth By Sleep

​

​

​

Black bird of my desire,

​

Rest now, on my shoulder.

​

Tell me the tale that I know too well

​

Sing to me of another empty shell.

​

​

You come from far away,

​

With pictures in your eyes.

​

So show me again that world of red

​

Made of the blood that I have bled.

​

​

You and I are all that's left,

​

Myself and I, one last time.

​

In a waking world of darkness deep

​

Where to live we must fall asleep.

​

Ya sadly I didn't get my attempt in. The month went by... and none of my projects have moved. Ah well here's to next month.

Alright guys, time to vote! Check the first post.


Wulf, you're late with yours, but I'll allow it this time. Next time will be a no-no, 'kay?

 

[Millershipper]

I voted. Kinda weird to vote when I have a submission in, but I voted nonetheless.

 

[DreamingofRoses]

If you vote for yourself, you are the only one who would know. Answer honestly, guys. And thanks for voting

 

[Wolf Rawrrr]

I took advantage of you being asleep or otherwise AFK :3


In my defense, I fell asleep while trying to write the submission, due to being in an exhausted stated for the last several days

Hey guys, new thread incoming for submission of themes and results of voting. Keep your eyes peeled.
