Hello everyone! I am for one thing glad to be using this Deadman Wonderland skin and disappointed that I don't know how to change the title. Well I did check the source code but was unable to change it duh you don't know anything about programming so don't fiddle with it! ALTHOUGH I did realize what I would have to alter to get the required changes. Will ask
a friend to help me.

Inner voice:
Before I go forward I would like to mention the comments in the subs represent the little voice in me Hello that states the stupidest of things at the most stupid of times yea, proud to belong to a person who knows both terms are right for stupid. I am allowing his interference hey don't call me interference!! since a person who knows me in real life said that "Just don't lose your fun side" when he read one of my works he was probably referring it to be boring so if you have any complaints against him, I will by happy to take them!

Short Leave:
So first of all the bad news. I was hoping to utilize the premium I was gifted, (thank you again :icondarlingangel0565:) properly and make the best of it. The problem came up that at the moment it is my exams yea you have been going on DA before and after your exams but I don't really see any material that will help you get grades and so I was a bit less active... not really but I had to study as well. After that, I will be away for about 10 days with little access to the internetwork you just created a new word! which means that I already had a huge pileup... I will consider that in the next heading.

Critiques:
Now I personally do realize that at times you are expecting a person who watches you to critique your work or complete the promise of critiquing it soon and when they are very late... well naturally a person gets annoyed. I accept - I am far behind on giving critiques but trust me I try my best to go through them. TRUE, I do sometimes skip some long works so I could critique the short ones quickly. That truly does NOT mean that I don't critique long works. If I don't want to critique them, I will just change the favorite folder. So from all those who watch me, who I watch or whose works are in my folder, please be patient till I am able to spend enough time on critiques. Having said that, I am hoping with all my heart that during my absense, people will be kind enough to critique a work or two of mine IF they feel like it of course (my main help through the premium).

Works:
I might be (planning to) upload a few of my works simultaneously here. I don't want people browsing through only my old works although there are quite a few well written pieces among them as well. I hope that it will help give you something to look at while I am gone (even if I am not gone though).

Thanks:
I want to now thank my previous watchers and my new watchers for watching me. I really appreciate it and of course words are always few for such gratitude. It is bascally your support that makes me come back again and again on DA so you are excusing them for ruining your exams??!! That is quite a sweet move partner!. Like I said before, I will check your works when I can. I can tell you, he aint coming back!

Now for the feature. The first person to be mentioned is my dearly my dearly.... yea I can see you are keeping her all to yourself :iconintricately-ordinary:intricately-ordinary born on 13th October (yay 5 days older than me, forgetting the year of birth) It is four days you idiot, did you just lose against me in common sense? a person who is really super sweet and cooperative and helps you whenever she can. She is really good with giving critiques and constructive comments. Her rating might be a little harsh but then again, it is a challenge to impress her and you don't seem to be doing a really good job at that! Oh i forgot tosay... HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY!   you remember that NOW??

Now the next person to be mentioned is :iconfireeheart:FireeHeart whose birthday was on 15th October. Happy belated Birthday! I never forgot it! Fireeheart is a person of few words... and I mean literally few words. She seems shy and does not talk a lot to people and her works are short and precise. Yet I think everyone has a right to be shy so I am totally fine with that!

The third person I am going to mention is another dear friend :iconcandycoatedlsd:CandyCoatedLSD a sweet and cute pony drawing girl that suddenly starts drawing blood out of her cute characters The WHAT?!!! There are better ways of putting that! in a sense she writes in a different way but she is nice enough to discuss and explain things in a cute manner "I am gonna die...". Happy belated birthday to you too! Oh and she is born on 16th October... only a day older!



now Regarding :iconintricately-ordinary:'s works, she is one of my most favorite writers on DA. I love some of her works so much that many of my friends who haven't read my works they probably run away when you bring the topic up have read AND appreciated her works. There are certain moments when I seriously don't know what to say since I don't get her works that is where I jump in! but that is perhaps a problem with me specifically.

Over all a really wonderful person and  writer. Oh and here is my chance... CONGRATS ON THE DAILY DEVIATION! YOU REALLY DESERVE IT! so here is the feature.

Walls Come Tumblingyou've a soul of gold,
a feat untold in our
lonely rusted world
you make clouds more
than a fable- you enable beaten down
dreams to finally soar
you have words like oxygen,
necessary to live, treasures
you would readily give
     we wish upon them all who try to stand so tall.
     in the end, why is it every person seems to fall?
     not you.

I imagine your chest sings
all answers, which your mouth then
tries to translate and share
does your heart grow weighted
or are you really free?
if you're truly so wonderful,
why stick around
with the lost and found?
there's nothing nice to be.
     
     we're tainted. broken. here,
     backbones hold priority
     over silken hands, a steady heartbeat
     and eyes that really see.

those tongues who like the taste
of truth, even freshly born,

This work is a beautiful and emotional piece that I adored although I was unable to give a proper feedback wasn't that supposed to be obvious? to her yet I still adored the piece enough for it to be in my folder that holds works I personally believe should get a DD.

Dreams of an AngelI.
"what do angels dream about?" Lindsay asked
I thought for a minute
"they dream to live like us."
"then why did Rachel want to die?"
"goodnight" I said, and turned out the light
Rachel used to sing to the birds
she said sometimes they just wanted someone to show they cared
and she serenaded them
until she was sure they  felt important
II.
in the car, Lindsay broke down
the black veil she wore seemed to be more
than an article of mourning
"why do they make child-size coffins?"
"Lindsay—"
"did you see her?
even dead, her spindly fingers reached out
but…  I couldn't grab her…"
I held her hand
because it was the only thing I knew how to do
Rachel used to write notes
she tucked them in branches,
under rocks, between her pillows
she said they were her secrets.
she always wanted someone to find them.
III.
Lindsay shut down
the walls grew darker, the ceiling grew heavy
did you know silence chokes you?
She had a recurring dream
she always woke screamin

Now THIS work... I seriously have no words left to say over this. This is like... one of the best works I have read on DA and it brings a tear to my eye however many times I read it Good! Read it like a thousand times and you will die of dehydration! Epic plan partner!. It initially seems to have a strange format and seems to not register so well but when one reaches the middle... they start getting it. And near the end... well you should read it to find out.

Synchronized HeartsWe weep for wounds not yet born
We predict the patterns of storms long gone
Only after it's concrete, do we mourn
We live life expecting the next dawn
We ask for truth yet prefer the lies
We pity the foolish and decry the wise
We sketch blueprints for mountains we can't make
We dismay over bad and think all good is fake
To each his own, we've our selfish desires
The beauty of destruction is all too sought out
We dream for the stars, but settle for fires
We louden cacophonies to silence any doubt
So caught up in answering questions not asked yet,
We die with only one lasting regret-
We know not of who we've become.
Our mirrors are blinding, and sightless isn't fun.

Now I will let the author describe my view about this work so I will copy her description here: Every once in a while I come across a writer that just amazes me and sobers me up instantly. It does the weirdest thing where it makes me hate all my own words because I think they are never enough. All these writers have the same thing in common. They craft phrases that say one thing but mean something else entirely. They are beautiful, and cling to the tip of your tongue. You have to read it four or five times to get the full extent. Yes that is exactly what I felt after reading her work. you and I both know it was an easy way out of not writing your own description



Regarding :iconfireeheart:'s works, while she is a person with few words there is a strange power her words hold. I have been time and again drawn to a piece she has written pieces that kept me glued and had me clapping at the end. Truly wonderful pieces.

A Sun Set In The PastThe sun began to set
The cool chills
I breathe in
From those memories
Of having you there
Right when the sun
Made a perfect silhouette
Now the sunset
Is just a time
When nothing would matter
And memories
Will disappear
As it will soon
Become nothing
But shattered tears

Now I do realize that not every person has a similar perspective to a work. I usually have a strange choice don't blame me! but then again what I like, I am happy to like it even if I am alone in my opinion. This work is short and precise. A bit too much that it makes one wonder what is so special about it? The special thing is the feeling I got as I tried to imagine what the author must be feeling. Wonderful work in my opinion.

Getting More Depressed?Every night
I fall deeper
Down the hole,
Since you're gone
It feels like no one
Is there anymore,
Yet I pull off a smile
That people buy...
They'll never know
That pain caused
The smile
Everyone has seen
For the past while...

Another work that matches the previous discission of the feel that it managed to give me. I like it, but then again since it is not in an group, no one else knows of it.

A Dead Body Crimson TrailYou saw my shadow..
My shadow from my past,
It maybe dark..
But it's heart
Is missing..
The heart
Longs for someone
It could never have..
The empty shell
It has left..
Has a trail of blood
Since the mind
Is in love
As the heart follows..
A crimson trail
For anyone who wishes
To follow a dark path
Of blind love..
Which may lead
To more regret and bitterness..

A work I read... while writing the journal. And it was impressive as well. True there are no long analogies and expressions relating crows to black roses and all but the feel it gives and the emotions that rise when one wonders what it might be to be in their place is beautiful. a dead body crimson trail... just wonderful.



Now for :iconcandycoatedlsd: she, like I said before is a unique writer but don't get me wrong don't worry, everyone does her works address themes that few think of, serious and meaningful (the ones I have read at least) and have a darker side to them but like I said, the theme is good and so is the execution so no problem right!

Mature Content


This work speaks for itself... or at least the title does. I loved the rhyming in it and no, I am not a sadist and no, I don't know about the author as well but while the work is a bit dark in its execution I like the expressions used and the title especially.

We Are But HumansWe imagined our bodies
Were made of strong stone.
But deeper searching proved
We are but skin and bone.
We imagined our souls
Were made of virtue within.
But closer digging proved
We are but remorse and chagrin.
We imagined our hearts
Were made of a flower bud,
But closer analyzing proved
We are but muscle and blood.
We imagined ourselves
Were made of truth and love.
But closer inspection proved
We are but all the above.

This work is based on the concept of human being, what we think we are and what we are. Again a really good execution and I liked the form of the stanza's.

Lucifer, Vinculis Meis TenenturLucifer, my chains are binding!
And my fears are just so frightening!
Why do you deny me so?
You saw me as family not long ago.
Don't turn your back on me!
Come back and set me free.
I ask not for your praise,
But to share in your glorious days.
Lucifer, my love for you is eternal!
And I worship you in your kingdom infernal!
Why must you leave me behind?
You are not the Devil so unkind.
Don't leave me here alone!
Come bring me to your throne.
I ask not to be your God,
But to be broken free from this façade.
Lucifer, come save me!
And love me like I love thee!
Why do you enchain me deep?
My Lord, my God, for you I weep.

I would personally not refer it to people who have little tolerance. I am a religious person and while this work at first sight might look like some satanic verse, the author has explicitly mentioned the perspective from which she wrote it. For me, it turned out to be quite a good piece then! A bit dark perhaps, but as a literary piece I liked it.

So now... my super long comments Journal idiot... you did that on purpose right? ends. I hope that my inner voice does not insult you in ANY way! If I may have said something rude, DO tell me! I never intend to be rude!

Take care people! Hope to join with you people soon!

P.S I wonder why the thumbs are not appearing properly.
