Updated with a few things I want to point out to the people who are entering:

:bulletred: You MUST submit your work to the designated folder: [link]
Click "Submit to this folder", select "Contribute existing deviation" if you've already submitted your work"

:bulletred: You MUST at least put the title and artist of the song you made your work for in your comments. You will be disqualified if you do not.

That's it, have fun everyone. :D

CURRENT ENTRIES



AutophobiaAlice opened her eyes wide, suddenly awake.  Odd, she didn't usually wake up so suddenly or so completely right away.  But her body was stiff with tense muscles and her breath was heavy with a pounding heart.  Adrenaline was burning like scalding coffee in her chest, creating a strange feeling.  It was like useless terror overshadowed by triumph, and it was already fading into the recesses of her mind as whatever dream she had been having faded away.

After throwing off the covers she walked into the bathroom adjacent to her bedroom.  She flipped on the light switch and took a quick shower.  As she started to blow dry her hair, her eyes sudde

:thumb152111424: AnguishI keep pushing myself.
The bass is making my ears bleed,
Hips churning to the snare and hi-hats,
My spine feels like it is going to snap,
If I don't heed this sound and just dance.

A Time In-BetweenToday I was driving down the road

And sang without abandon

To me it was a song
Of growing up and loosing innocence
It was sweet and carefree
But sad at the same time
I can't help but smile

It reminds me of my life before
The life out of this small town
With friends and family in college
Dancing on Friday nights
Studying over pizza on Sunday nights

I had to leave that life behind
Abandon my dreams to the wayside
Work two jobs at home
In this small town
To support my family

Here I realized I am back at the in-between
