Rhythm, Day 24

NaPoWriMo, Day 24

MELANCHOLY – Acrostic (Emotions)

I finally got the rules – for the regular prompts I need to keep a word count on all lines, but who’s to stop me from breaking the rules? The truth is, I wrote these several acrostics before I realised there were rules and the other thing is I find it hard to alter these [...]
