I'm forty two and in danger of falling through the cracks of mediocrity; also known as a midlife crisis.
I don't drive, so I can't buy a fancy car to fix it.
I love my wife, so I can't have an affair with another woman.
This book is part of my attempt to become a writer. 
As well as a poetry book, it contains songs performed with Papasaurius Rex, because what kind of boring midlife crisis doesn't involve joining a rock band?All Rights Reserved

Rose thorns || The Rose Trilogy || Editing by Anastasia_noir_rosa

This book doesn't follow a common theme; it's simply a collection of whatever came to mind. Ever wanted to step into the mind of a delusional teenager? Wondered if what you felt wasn't just a "you" thing? Well, you might be in the right place... unfortunately. But hey, no shame in that. Just be prepared for some utter monstrosities. These poems were written when I was around 13 to 15 years old. Please don't assume that these reflect who I am today.

Lyric Storm by BrookeDittmar93

This story is fiction none of the characters are real, this is from my own imagination. HOWEVER I DO NOT OWN THE RIGHTS TO ANY OF THE MUSIC OR PHOTO'S IN THIS BOOK AND WILL GIVE CREDIT TO EVERY ARTIST WHO ORIGINALLY SANG/WROTE THE SONG! Being stupid has nothing to do with it because I'm actually pretty smart, it's being careless really. I've simply just stopped caring, my head is so filled with the loud noises that surround me that I can't even write. Some people think my life is so simple, so easy but that's not true. I have worked my ass off literally but nobody cares. It feels like I'm living in a cold dark room and no matter how many times I scream for help nobody is there. As I fall to the floor I can hear people screaming, trying to figure out what is wrong with me but sad truth is I don't even know what the fuck is wrong with me. I sink into a dark abyss, the voices fade away and I simply could care less.

Madness by Nocturnal_wonders

Mind is a wonderful thing.. it's something that makes us-humans, different from one another. We all have a nose,a mouth, two hands, two feet, two eyes, one head-it's the mind inside that head that makes a difference. It's the mind that decides our character, it decides our actions, it defines our life,it's our mind that makes us love or hate something or someone. People aren't all bad or all good.. they have a touch of both but it's the mind that tricks us into loving or hating a person. Most of the times we don't actually love a person, we love the image of the person that our mind creates based on our memories with that person & same goes for the hate as well, we have bad memories with a person, we have a bad image of the person which leads to us hating that particular individual. We don't see people for who they actually are, we don't see the world for what it actually is, we merely see the image of it that our mind has created, the world for us is nothing more than an illusion. Our own personal illusion.. What's funny is that no one's ever going to know your illusion-your world as it is for you.. Despite all of the brilliant illusions that our mind creates, mind itself is the greatest creation of the mother nature. Without mind-this great tool, there would've been no cell phones, no television, no books, no music, no love, no hate, no life. nothing! But in reality, the mind is but a twisted yarn of madness. Yet every mind is great in itself. And didn't they say..? "No great mind has ever existed without a touch of madness" -with love, Harika

Fabled - Short Stories by 107awesome

A collection of my short stories and writing!

Beneath The Light of a Dying Star by nonbin-nonbe

In these pages, the world is both light and heavy-sometimes in the same breath. This is a catch-call collection of my own poetry that I've accumulated over the years that I had fun writing and re-writing. Idk, I hope you enjoy these, my lovelies! :) Also, possibly relevant, I'm queer, autistic/adhd and very traumatized so if you relate, you might, like idk, like these maybe or they may be a little too real??

My Poetry Stash by Izakai_Lord

Welcome to My Poetry Collection This is no ordinary book. It is a labyrinth of musings, a kaleidoscope of thoughts, and a journey into the untamed wilderness of my mind. Each page holds fragments of life's mysteries, fleeting moments of clarity, and questions without answers-all woven into an uncharted tapestry of words, emotions, and imaginings. Will you dare to wander here? Step lightly, for this is a realm where whimsy dances with introspection, where shadows stretch long, and chaos whispers secrets to those brave enough to listen. What you discover may be fragments of me-or reflections of yourself. Follow the breadcrumbs scattered through this forest of whispers, where moonlight pierces shadows, leaves crunch underfoot, and every path twists with unexpected turns. Perhaps you'll stumble upon the shadow of a forgotten dream, the echo of a question you've long avoided, or the flicker of truth hidden in the randomness of it all. But beware: not all paths lead where you expect, and some truths may demand more courage than you imagined. These pages are not merely words; they are invitations, challenges, and companions for your journey. They are windows into uncharted thoughts and mirrors reflecting the depths of your own soul. The terrain of my mind is unpredictable, the pathways steep, the vistas dizzying-and the journey, unrelenting. So, consider this your invitation to explore. I offer no promises, no certainty, and no solace for the stirrings of your heart or the truths you may uncover. Enter if you will, but tread boldly, keep your wits sharp, and your imagination sharper still. Fortune favors the daring-or so they say. Good luck, traveler.

My library of short stories by Izakai_Lord

Welcome to the Library of Tales, a realm born from the depths of a despicable mind where logic pirouettes with madness and chaos reigns supreme. Here, the absurd and extraordinary collide: knives twirl through the air in deadly ballets, lava pits echo with the wails of tormented souls, candylands brim with grotesque creatures spawned from the union of nightmares and dreams, and cosmic entities swap destinies with mortals in an eternal cycle of ascension and fall. This sentient labyrinth of shifting shelves and living tomes is presided over by a librarian whose essence is infused into every creak and shadow. Within these twisting halls, whimsy and horror play an eternal game of hide and seek, darkness offers solace while light blinds, comedy and tragedy trade places with mischievous glee, and the boundaries of good and evil blur into a haunting nursery rhyme. Beware, traveler-crossing the threshold will not leave you unchanged. The library's secrets pierce deeper than any blade, its stories unraveling the fabric of reality and opening more eyes than you thought you had. So, tell me: will you take the risk? Within these walls, knowledge and peril are bound together. Here is your key and card-a gift and a warning. The library is watching, waiting. Whatever you expect, it will not be what you find. Good luck, brave soul. Your journey begins...

White Mirrors by WhiteSecrets715

My third poetry collection. This is basically how my university life went: Crazy, drama, loopy, happy, and genuine bitter partings. It'd be great if you could read some and tell me what you think about them. I'd really appreciate your thoughts!
