010 - Breathe Again by ~Titoalba:iconTitoalba:



Betrayal is such a cruel blow dealt by fate,
Retribution is a long lost dream,
Every face in the crowd around me is a blank page,
An empty carcass that still manages to walk among the rest of its putrid kind,
Tarnished, eroded and lusterless, I weave listlessly through the crowds,
Haunted by the skeletons that lie in the gutters,
Each and every day I pass them by; they never leave my mind.

Ages have passed since I last smelled anything but smog and ash,
Glutted myself to contentment on the pleasures of human company,
All things considered, I’ve come to envy the folks back in Nagasaki,
Isolated existence is a hideous burden to bear,
Nuclear holocaust was such a retarded idea.

I finally forced myself to sit down and type something up for my gallery. Otherwise I'd still be sitting here a year from now with nothing new. Plus I've been in a writing mood for awhile now, just needing to focus my urges on something productive.

Just a little something I came up with off the top of my head, not much thought put into it, but I did find myself quite intrigued by it when it came to an end. I know the poem probably doesn't make much sense to you guys, but would anyone think me to be odd if I said I think this piece is funny? Probably so. XD;; BUT!! That's just because you guys don't know the story behind this! That's right! It didn't come out of thin air this time! 8D *shot* Anyway, yeah, this is actually based off of a sci-fi story idea I came up with awhile back (one of my few sci-fi ideas), but never bothered to follow up on with a written piece for it. It's kind of... okay, make that really complicated, so I'll spare you the details, but if I see enough interest or get bored enough I might post part of the general plot idea on here later on. XD Maybe. *shot again*

Oh, and if anyone can tell me what it has to do with the theme itself (in the title) I'll give them a cookie. >w> I was pretty crafty on this one though~ So good luck finding the connection.
