Her fingers were playing at each other. She was concerned over something she wasn't sharing. Or that she couldn't share? She offered a pained smile.

"What can you tell me about the #island in this picture?" Amy asked her. She felt like they could both use a distraction. #vss365 #writing

if one day the sky drowned the world
and I was at work, I would be on
an #island. dark, hard, cold,
but we would be dry and busy,
counting heads in the classrooms
promising the future
that they'd live another day

We three set sail in a boat one night
Jimmy and Kimmy and me

Traveled the river of moonglade light
Out to the crystal sea

Beached on an #island with sand so white
Where no other eyes might see

Jimmy and Kimmy came home all right
None know what became of me

I still see your knees
Peeking from beneath
Islands in an epsom salt sea
Washing away the toxicity
Of mankind and of me
Eroding in waves of deceit
Now the waters recede
And I am left to grieve
This brown bathtub ring

Seeking an escape
Looking for secluded spot
#Island on his own

recent disappointment redirected
her life decisions but not in a bad way

time spent in isolation
has shown her a new path forward

similar to a jam packed #island
suddenly without visitors
only to be popular again months later

Time is an #island,
unless it is an isthmus...
then, "Merry Isthmus."

don't allow yesterday's upsets
to metamorphose into an abandoned #island

regain #valor & composure
becoming an untethered & unperturbed continent instead

The Island of Comino, Malta #malta #comino #island #mediterranean

"Our"

shores shining,
from sea to sea.

Island of opportunity.
Gold growing in
the pockets of
continents,

pants lined in so
many burials unfound.

Money making the world
go round, reaching sea to
sea. Island, entire of itself.
Wanting at

lonely, we
burn every
bridge we
made.

the last good picture
you, smiling
it turned
from hope
to hopelessness
in a year
all you ever wanted
left you wanting
no refuge #island she
one-sided relationship
left me
the last good picture

#vss365 Toys with misplaced or missing parts, & toys that didn't look like or operate like other toys, were ghettoized on Misfit #Island. Toy producers said that abnormal toys should be deported to the island to prevent the normalization of differences. Some said they should be exterminated.

Mars
Morning haze
You could
Get a glorious
Taste

Once,
Deep in
The fragrance
Of the barren's
Green bladed
Hues

Travelling through
The Island's rural,
Rusty village
Lanes

Till
Justice turns
To hidden
Strangers

Nothing smelt
Or grew the same
The Trihord's game

I #assert this
#subject is closed

Why are you so
#vindictive?

You left me on that
deserted #island.
Now #percolate
in memories
of your losses

On an #Island of Dreams, hers is just too much.

"Magic's the wrong #subject for girls," they #assert, laughing. "Why not try sewing?"

Years later she returns, bringing with her #bewitching power from the velvety darkness.

They shouldn't have laughed.

#vss365 #2wordprompt #weirdmicro #vssfantasy

where's resolution
to a chapter that's taken a toll

where's the apology
for #percolating anger unbestowed

circling about
an abandoned #island without a care
