Missed Mark A slender arrow launched from a white bow carrying engravings of gold and fletched with the feathers of the Seraphs stood at attention with it's head buried in my chest. A sigh passed my lips, as Cupid's poison flooded my senses, heart racing nervous anticipation, thirsty; a furnace of newly realized passions, the pilot dying as I yanked the arrow free. Experience keeps me from Cupid's flights of fancy leaving me with a content heart an old arrow, and a hole in my shirt. |

 reports, 1d 22h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community. |
