Prompt: Go wild. Give me the deepest darkest corners of your mind brought to life; reanimate your nightmares in the form of words; write what you feel is the personification of despondence. This is freestyle; if you want to write nightmare fuel, go ahead. If you want to tell a sad story, why not? If you want to vent your anger in words, go wild. If you want to write happiness so beautiful, so pure it hurts, do your worst. What I want is raw, powerful emotion (any emotion you feel is powerful enough to match the prompt). I want to feel my soul shatter reading your words. Good luck.
