Writeblr All Night

Hey•|Yahya|•|Writer|•Well...

[voganzy]

Come to me

While i wait

As the sun burns my skin

I'm burning in hell as i sin

Oh, look at the cloudy sky

No faith left, so i gotta lie

Lie and lie

Get used to it

Love it, adore it

We all lie

Part of us dies Everytime

We lose ourselves in this world

A world full of lies

We trust in lies

The truth is burnt and dead

Lies only remain

As grains of sands they lay

Run to me

While i die

As my lies burn my skin alive

Do you like my sweet white lie?

[voganzy]

Forgive and maybe forget

Mistakes were made

Words were said

Wish my tears can go back in time

To tell you i love you instead

But my love for you

Is forever growing

No matter what i said

And i will learn more about you

Be wiser just for you

Make you smile or happy too

That's what i care about and it's you

Hear your voice at night

Admire your smile by day

That's the life i want

Forever, Then and today

Trust me cookie One last time

As history shall not repeat itself

only repeat my hand in yours

Your beloved smile glowing in my mind

Your laughter echoing in my heart

With every beat it beats

Here i am as i write this

My life on pause and frozen

Waiting for my day to start

Only when you wake up,

Can i open my eyes for a new day

Forgive and maybe forget

But you will forget

As this will fade as unimportant memory

Against the memories we shall create

Full of you, me and happiness

Praying all day that you trust me

Believe me and love me

You're my blessing from God

That i won't mistreat again

I thank God you're here

*I love you* to the farthest universe and always back

Back by your side

[voganzy]

Am i worthy?

A thought leaves

Another comes greeting

My mind is overloaded and heavy

Put it out of it's misery

I'm not worthy

Make them stop

Sweetie, make them stop

You make them stop, sweetie

Then you gave up, sweetie

You can't stand this

The worse of me

Neither can I

But i try to be

Better, happier

Loveable, worthy

I'm just not worthy, sweetie

I'll be eating cookies in the shade

Hope they last

[voganzy]

Confusion is the only thing i feel.

The world is spinning so fast but i see u so still and clear.

Smiling back like u came to save me from this whrilpool.

i hold onto you, you help me find my peace.

Thought i made it, but our bond brittles.

I see pieces of it fly away into the darkness.

Then i fly away with them.

Falling down, seeing pity on your face.

If you care, how are you so cruel?

But it doesn't matter, all i got is handful of sorrow.

My arm up reaching for the help i need

But if there's no help then what do i seek?

Your love is all i need.

But if there's no love then what do i seek?

Is it ok to seek what i cannot reach?

[voganzy]

Thoughts spill from my head.

My heart pumps them non-stop into my mind.

They do me no good and give me no pride.

But that's me what can i do?

My thoughts are carved onto my face.

And every move and sound i make.

So here i write this in utter silence

With my thoughts but they can't stay quiet.

They are my lifelong friends.

We argue and fight all the time.

We're in a prison and no one can escape.

But that's us what can we do?

[voganzy]

The clock ticks

With every tick i hear

A new second is born

With every tick i hear

Another is set to die

Tick…Tick…Tick…

Swiping the dust off

the clock stare back

Only to remind me

I can't stay in the fog

Trapped by myself

Afriad of losing myself

In the maze I was born in

Tick…Tick…Tick…

Hearing a distant laugh

Through the barrier i listen

Though the cracks i peek

Only to be blinded by

The sun of a summer day

I wish to escape my prison

I Smell flowers through

The thick concrete wall

I feel the warm sun

Through it's tiny cracks

Tick…Tick…Tick…

Tick…Tick…Tick…

[voganzy]

Those feelings within

Spill spill my feelings in a well

Drop after drop the well is filled

No space no room for more

Where do i go now?

I am a burden

Feelings are my burden

I lock myself inside

Watch the key burn in flames

Im safe inside

No one to hurt me

But those feelings never stop

They're always on the road

Travelling throughout my soul

Never settle never calm

Never stop ringing my alarm

If only i shut it down

Smash and snooze

Instead i crush my soul

Shape it into a tiny box

Where i shall save up all my sorrows

All my bad memories that sting too

Guard it close with an iron fist

Lock it with steel and chains

Those are toxins to my brain

But the good memories I shall keep

Safe and sound they remain

Where they can be the flare in my darkness

To guide me through my night

To be my undying torch of light

[mr-write-all-night]

Thoughts spill from my head.

My heart pumps them non-stop into my mind.

They do me no good and give me no pride.

But that's me what can i do?

My thoughts are craved onto my face.

And every move and sound i make.

So here i write this in utter silence

With my thoughts but they can't stay quiet.

They are my lifelong friends.

We argue and fight all the time.

We're in a prison and no one can escape.

[mr-write-all-night]

We all have busy lives with almost no room for anything that isn't worth our attention and it's only getting busier as we grow old, as a result we tend to forget about the other people that are suffering we forget about the hungry, the thirsty and the ill, hell we even forget to be GRATEFUL , we forget that we are so blessed that we don't even notice, you can read this now while other people don't know how to read, because no one told them any better or taught them what's right and what's wrong so when someone is rude to you feel pitty for them, because no one taught them how to behave and sooner or later they will learn, but the hard way. We forget that there are blind people that have to live their live in utter darkness, they can't feel how beautiful the sky is or how magical the sunset is, but you can and have you ever been grateful fot that? We humans tent to see the faulty, the ugly, the bad in ourselves and our lives and rarely do we ever be grateful for the things we got used to having and when something that we're used to having gets taken from us even if it's so small as they having a fever can drastically change our lifestyle, we humans are so fragile and weak even a mosquito can suck our blood without us even noticing, yet we we're constantly yearning for power that we do not have, we're fighting to look strong even though we're far away from it. Being grateful for what you have and apologizing when you done someone wrong is not weakness, but it's the strongest you'll ever be.

Some days you won't be able to fight. You'll sit down and stare at the wall or occupy your hands and legs in mindless things. You'll draw aimlessly at a paper or find yourself unable to want to give a coherent response to any questions and or conversations. Your soul will be so tired you won't want to absorb anything. Your mind will want to be blank and your whole body will feel heavy. And that's ok. Everyone has those days, they're unavoidable. After all, we all need to heal one way or the other. You can't expect to repair an engine while it's running, right?

How To Characterize

tip #1 

The prevailing advice is: A central figure’s motivation will propel your story and make characterization perfect. Meaning, once you know their incentive, all is well. So far, so good. But what mindset can help you achieve that? Persuasive and non-boring motivations are hard to come up with. Consider this your handy cop-out: Question why especially antagonists become vastly popular. Simply because their goals and struggles are so much more pronounced. Every writer naturally equips a baddie with aims. And likely a cool outfit, mind you. Meanwhile, every other and even the most important characters have no agenda to note. They only react to events just because, their incentive stays in the dark. 

We assume that only villains get to have a (rather twisted) compulsion toward what they think fulfills them. So: Do the counterintuitive. Craft a protagonist like you’d create a villain. In terms of having that one strong drive in particular. Grit, wanting to be accepted, whatever comes to mind. If that motivation is negative like say envy, they can still be the hero if their actions and struggles make them gain integrity, unlike the villain who might even turn a good incentive into something evil through their actions. That makes for a very, very solid characterization. And also a perfect arc as well. 

tip #2

Yes, let’s do talk about outfits. If you’re a fan of descriptions: Pull a Disney. Let clothing speak for itself. Arthur Conan Doyle showed us how looks will give away not just past actions, but also habits. A habit is at the core of characterizing. So showing the state of appearance is excellent. How laissez-faire or conforming a person is, etc. PS: Referring back to #1, a habit can also be like a symptom of your character’s motivation. E.g. Detective Holmes twirling his beard because he has a need to figure things out. 

tip #3

Try colloquial dialogue. Informal characters are fun to write. Ironically, formal speech is more cringy than slang sometimes unless it suits your AU. But really molding your speech and messing with it can bring out so much charm and a figure’s mindset. 

tip #4

The straightforward thing to do: Have the character overcome obstacles that test their choice. It’s like those personality quizzes, your decisions sort you into trait A or B. Guess why love triangles are so overused. Partner choice characterizes.

tip #5

This one’s for writers on an endless search for one-of-a-kind characteristics. It’s okay to make figures stay true to genre values. It detracts less from uniqueness than you think. While you search in frustration, quality tropes might be right around the corner. Remembering the big picture, ironically, gives you more ideas & room to dissipate stereotypes. Focusing on a character in a bubble will be much more difficult and ends up as reinventing the wheel. 

Picking and specifying genre traits will aid you in world building as well. In fact, once your tropes are fleshed out, half of your world building is done. Because the characteristics carry so much information on the social environment and customs. Eureka 😄

tip #6

Other characters can state qualities of your protagonist. Blatant, all out. Preferably as a complaint so you get friction going: ”Blake is so arrogant!” Which, again, drives the story since there’s need for resolution. Do give your readers that satisfaction as a fluff writer, keep a note in your drafts — this detail can be important later on to come full circle.

41 Emotions as Expressed through Body Language

41 Emotions as Expressed through Body Language Unique 

This list, while exhausting, is soooo not exhaustive; it barely scratches the surface. And each entry could easily become cliché (if it isn’t already). But, it should be enough to get you started. Want more? Start watching people (not in a creepy way), and take notes of what they seem to do when expressing different emotions. Your repertoire of expression will double in no time. PS—do not use these for actual, real-life body language reading; you will fail. These are strictly novelistic.

Awed  -Slack -jawed, raised eyebrows, staring  -Frozen, slack body language (Self? What self? There is only Zuul.)  -Take a step back and put a hand to his heart

Amused  -Smiling and throwing back her head laughing  -Slapping her thighs, stamping her feet, clapping her hands  -Shaking her head (That’s so wrong!)

Angry/Aggressive  -Sharp movements, like shaking a fist, pointing, slashing, or slamming a fist on a table  -Flushed face, patchy red blotches  -Tension in neck—chords standing out, veins throbbing—and jutting or tucked chin  -Arms akimbo, or clenching fists  -Entering someone else’s space and forcing them out  -Poofing up with a wide stance (I am big! Very big!), arms wide (Bring it!)  -Lowered eyebrows, squinting eyes  -Teeth bared, jaw clenched, snarling

Attentive  -Slow head nodding with a furrowed brow  -Leaning forward, toward the speaker, and sitting up  -Taking notes  -Looking over the top of her glasses

Bored  -Resting his head on his palm, peeking out between the fingers, maybe even slipping so his head “accidentally” hits the table  -Tapping toes, twirling pencil, doodling, and otherwise fidgeting  -Staring out a window, or at anything remotely more interesting (Which is everything …)

Confident  -Arms clasped behind body  -Head lifted, chest out, standing tall  -Walking briskly and making firm, precise movements

Confused  -Tilting head with narrowed eyes  -A furrowed brow  -Shrugging

Contempt/Superiority  -Lifted chin (The better to look down the nose.)  -Pursed lips, sneering, slight frown  -Circling a shoulder, stretching her neck, turning away—anything to indicate she doesn’t see the person as a threat or worthy of her attention  -Grabbing her lapels, or tucking her thumbs in her waistcoat (See this clothing? It is much nicer than yours.)  -Dismissive hand-waving

Cynical/Sarcastic/Bitter  -Twisted lips or a half-smile  -Sneering, sometimes with shaking the head and other defensive body language  -Pressed lips with a slight frown  -Eye rolling

Shy  -Avoids eye contact, or has only fleeting eye contact (Eye contact means you might speak to me.)  -Keeps a fair distance from everyone, and will back away if someone steps closer (Space invaders!)  -Folded arms, head down, and other defensive body language (If I make myself small, they can’t see me.)
