trying to gently rouse my site out of hiatus by doing the 6/10 prompt! 6/11 was my birthday so I couldnt help but write about how I've felt in the time surrounding it (TW discussion of depression + suicide) https://chimeramanticore.neocities.org/muse

first of all, thank you for your vulnerability - such a sweet and thoughtful piece! I especially like the line about making childhood memories as an adult, and 'I felt my youth'. beautiful work, hope you're okay!

God, this made me cry. thank you for sharing with us, it's a beautiful, bittersweet piece. I relate to those inner contradictions and struggling with what they have to say about our essence. I hope you're alright!

thank you ryo, i'm okay! i write this kind of thing to exorcise it from my mind. i'm sorry it made you cry - i hope you're okay too! and thank you again. it was my dad's birthday on monday, and i wrote him a poem where i told him i love him without using those words. so he knows, at least.

this was awful to read in the best possible way. i cant say ive done anything quite as intense but i know those conflicted feelings and urges all too well. i hope everything is okay, or that things are getting easier

I love how precise and visceral the descriptions of june 11th are, they make the poem feel very much live. I also adore june 17th, there is something almost brutal in how short it is and how much it leaves open to the viewer. great job!
