A style/topic that I don't often write on. As usual, this is another of my more objective writes, for all you curious people. :P


You fly on wafts of lilac
Blue eyes washing over me with the tide
Following the moon that’s the cheese with our wine.
Yes, we can fly on lilac wafts through the dampened clouds
Spreading the flowery scent across the lavender sky
And gather rainwater to drink as it’s cried.

Has life ever held this much bliss in its generous hands
As it has now, darling?
I thought not.
Do you think it ever will again?
I don’t know either.
I hope so.

Huh? I think there must be some mistake here.

The things I put in red and crossed out were implied. You wouldn't ask the question if you didn't think the answer was no.

Anyway, great job! Keep writing!



I think the best thing about making it into the quote generator is when nobody tells you, so one day you're just scrolling and voila, some phenomenally inane thing that crawled out of your dying synapses and immediately regretted being born the second it made contact with the air has been archived for all time. Or worse, a remark of only average inanity. Never tell me when you've put me in the generator. Pride-tinged regret just doesn't taste the same without the spice of surprise.
