Past recollections,
crumbled into the ether,
as if never lived.

It happened without warning and the few words that could be uttered to stop it weren't even thoughts.

Their lips met, a union that spelled the beginning of devastation - both for themselves and the people under their governance.

Memories faded,
restored into the light of
new experience.

Words,
a river from my mind to yours.

Though it's a path still riddled with pitfalls,
my eyes see it as the clearest path.

I wrote Echo first as a fantasy comic script, then as a chapter in a series, and finally as a standalone short story in a larger universe. I’m happy to share it to a wider audience for the first time in Green Mirror. 💚 https://t.co/U5795cRrBQ

When I look in the mirror,
I can't remember what I looked like.

I don't trust the image in front of me;
there's no way that's me.

Yet, I can find no reason to mistrust the mirror.
But it's difficult to believe what I've become.

A muse with a key—
An artist in a cage

Wishing tomorrow were the same as yesterday,
an exercise in futility.

#WriteMap 149

[justiniswriting @powernuggets]

Forever was long ago,
a memory aroused by a familiar scent.

I'm flung back to the distant past,
into your loving embrace.
The warmth breathes life into me.

I pull back, eager to see if you're real once again.
And I awake, staring at the ceiling we once shared.

"I don't want what you wanted."

Shock, disappointment, and grief from parents who expected perfect mirrors,
rather than the best parts of themselves.

@kira_clarke Winter storm blows through,
unbiased in destruction.
A path for the new.
