About
The world is full of beautiful words. The tongue has no bones but is strong enough to break a heart. Words start wars and end them, create love and choke it, bring us to laughter and joy and tears. There is no falsehood in words, only in things.
Calling all readers, lovers of poetry and music, screen and stage. If you have a google spreadsheet of Metric/Marina/Mitski/Macklemore lyrics, now's your time to shine. What does Nobel Laureate Louise Glück have in common with the Future of Kpop Lee Chan? I don't know, but we can find out.
Examples
Junhui + The Archer
"Easy they come, easy they go
I jump from the train, I ride off alone
I never grew up, it's getting so old
Help me hold onto you"
Taylor Swift - The Archer
Verhao; "I loved him from the moment he walked in"
Just thinking about all the verhao soft feelings from the last week of November, especially the killer tweet from @literarykpop with the quote:
"I laughed and said, ‘Life is easy.’ What I meant was, ‘Life is easy with you here, and when you leave, it will be hard again." - Miranda July
95 line - R18
"Houston, we have a problem."

Filling with art/media

(To explain, the HTML resizes your picture to 400x400px so that it fits on most screens, users can view the full size if they click on it. You can also add a link to your work on twitter so that others can share it, or to any other website you want)

Pain.
Turning, turning, turning—what?
You? But we were friends, for a time I'd thought we were something more, but now standing here—falling to my knees and kneeling here—we clearly aren't. We clearly weren't.
Maybe you meant more to me than I meant to you. Maybe you only put up with me because I amused you. Maybe you only put up with me because it made you look good.
Look great.
Look like you had a heart. What heart? There's no heart in you, nothing there but an empty hole of a soul. Nothing more to you than beautiful hair and good looks.
You meant more to me than I meant to you. You were my gaming partner and singing partner and wearing-matching-jewellery-because-we-can partner, and yet if I'm to die it'll be by your hands, it'll be your choice—
Taking decisions away from me even now.
I fall further down onto my hands and hold the knife in my side tightly. Maybe help will get here first. Maybe someone will help me first.
You crouch. Your breath whispering over my face as you whisper my name.
Your voice is beautiful, it has always been beautiful, and if it's the last thing I hear than at least it's grace will ease my passing. At least the sound of your words, my name—
It's all I ever wanted to hear you say. My name. Not like this. Murmured, but not like this.
Broken, but not in sorrow, not in agony. In tears, but tears of joy, tears of pleasure, not tears of pain.
I open my eyes and stare at you.
Why did you have to do this?
Why? Didn't you know that I'd follow you to the ends of the earth? Didn't you know that for you I'd move mountains and defy Gods? Don't you know?
Maybe you meant more to me than I meant to you.
But if dying at your side—no matter that it's not the exact way in which I'd meant those words then I said them first—is my destiny, then it's my destiny.
You smile, your lips tilting into that oh so familiar shape, lighting up your face, and I know. I know that if you hadn't of killed me today you would have done it another day.
I have loved you.
I know.
I pull out the knife. My blood seeps into the snow and you bend to kiss me.
Maybe I did mean as much to you as you meant to me.

Title from song of same name by Standing Egg
I was going for a Marvelish Seokhan? Jeonghan as Natasha but Seokmin as?? I couldn't quite pin that one down. Clint maybe. But feel free to think of it as whatever fits best in your head.
