How it feels to trail your hand through dew-stained grass on an Autumn morning. The cold runs through your veins from the tips of your fingers, ice splashed across your palm like a shotgun wound.

How it feels to lay face down on tarmac in Summer. To totally relax. You feel the heat seep through your clothes, between your fingers; it blankets you, keeps you warm.

To sit outside in a thunderstorm, silently screaming at the sky; searching for that extra bright star that should be there, he has to be there! To not notice that you're drenched to the bone, because you simply don't care anymore. To wait until your hands and feet are numb, until the water soaks through your trousers, creeps down your neck; until no part of you can escape the rain. Until the cold reaches your heart. To grieve.

To lay perfectly still in bed at the end of the day.You feel nothing, begin to question if you're still there.

To be in your lover's arms. To know the world is fine, because you can hear their heartbeat.

To play with a candle flame. To watch it lick at your fingers as it dances through shades and hues. To watch it flicker in time with your breathing. To dance with danger.
A random thingy...

Hi! This is DictionaryKiller from :iconwriters--club: here to give you a critique.

Now, in parts your words here were amazing. I especially liked "ice splashed across your palm like a shotgun wound", but I'm having trouble getting a feel of the peice. Being all over the place isn't a bad thing, but even in the midst of disorder there has to be a string connecting each thought, if only jsut barely.

So even as each thought was written exceptionally well there was no main idea that brought them all together. It was, as you stated, random. In this case, too random, and because of this, the peice has lost the power it would have held if the was an underlining theme connecting them all.

But I liked this peice regaurdless. Personally, I found your style to be very emotive and interesting. All you need is to gather your thoughts better, figure out which senteces are relative and which are better left unsaid or rather, saved for another work.

Happy writing!
