How do you survive the world alone?
You lie,
Frequently,
To yourself.
You tell yourself
You choose to be alone,
You don't need them,
They're beneath you,
More trouble than they're worth,
But,
You could join them if you wanted to.
And sometimes you believe it.
You become apathetic,
Hateful even,
Of everyone,
But mostly,
If you're honest,
Yourself.
You put on this act,
This one man show,
Just for you,
Just to delude yourself.
And sometimes you believe it.
And sometimes you almost feel alive.
But then you remember it,
The truth.
That you didn't reject them,
That they rejected you.
This knoweledge,
This pain,
Always

Instance of Our Lives
One beat,
One moment,
One more grain of sand
In the hourglass.
Seems so insignificant,
So small,
Yet precious beyond belief.
In a single frame
Rests a precious memory
Some are sad,
Some are happy,
But all are important,
All have value,
All make up who we are.
Victory and the Struggle by DelinquentDeego, literature
Victory and the Struggle
Victory,
Sweet success,
A validation of existence,
A sense of accomplishment,
Giving meaning to the struggle.
Or,
Perhaps,
Being given meaning by the struggle.
Perhaps the victory has no meaning.
Perhaps it is how we got it,
What we had to do,
The pain we felt,
The strength we had to use,
The stress of the challenge,
That gives meaning to our win.
Though dead is the body,
Passed on is the soul,
I am still here,
The memories live with me,
Thus preserving the person,
To look back at in times of need,
To reminisce of in times of joy,
Never to lament,
For they're still with me here,
I carry them with me always.
Just a Peaceful Image by DelinquentDeego, literature
Just a Peaceful Image
In a field of snow white flowers
The wind whispers a gentle melody
Reminding us of lullabies
And simpler times.
In the middle there is a girl
Her dress pure and white,
Dancing to the tune,
Spinning and twirling,
Twirling and spinning
With the flowers and the wind.
Even the stars,
Far above in the moonlit sky,
Join the dance,
The simple enchanting dance,
In which time stands still to watch.
Fair?
You want the world to be fair?
Do you even know what that means?
You think it means that everyone gets loved,
That we all get what we want?
You're wrong
Fair is everyone suffering the same,
Fair is everyone having the same opportunity to fail,
Fair is everyone being equally poor,
Fair is a world indiscriminately hostile.
Because guess what,
This is a harsh world,
And that's not going to change,
Especially in your fair world.
This world may not be fair,
But I still get a chance if I fight for it,
Same as you.
If I put in my all and don't surrender to anything
Then maybe,
Just maybe,
I'll get my chance to shine,
To be

I had planned on posting something over my vacation and spent that being excessively lazy, which turned out to be the right way to spend it, seeing how busy I am now with school. None of it's hard but it's like I finish one assignment and realize there's another that needs doing.
Anyway I obviously missed out on wishing everyone a happy New Year when it was more appropriate so I guess I'll just hope that everyone has enjoyed their first month of the year. Mine's been relatively uneventful outside of school but that's okay, I'm still settling back into the idea of being a student I guess.
I plan to upload a lot more this year, especially wri
Just finished my finals. The only reason I felt like mentioning that here is that for one of them, my Web Development class. I used some of the files here in it and don't want my professor to think I stole them. That would be terrible. Well with me being on break now, I guess I'll have nothing but time to get some stuff finished and uploaded here. Maybe. In case I'm not back before then have a happy holidays everyone.
When I first made this account I posted a couple pieces of writing and then said I would post drawings when I had access to a scanner. That didn't happen, and later on some other things happened that caused me to lose most of what I was going to post, making it a moot point. But now, nearly two years later, I can present some art to you, whoever you might be. And now I'm going to watch as they probably get more attention than the writing, much of which I put more effort into.
Speaking of my writing, I'd really love to get feedback on them. I know someone has read them, but noone has said a thing about them. I find this disheartening, that no
