The breadth of people's desires are equivalent only to their suffering... seek only to know the beauty in life and accept what is with gratitude instead of yearn for what could be with longing.... you will find peace in acceptance x

Sculptures of misery, illusions are. We craft them with our desires not our eyes. How fragile they are!  How futile it is to try to hold on! Reality always grinds them to dust.

I'm mad keen on a well formed phrase and love nothing more than beautiful concepts illustrated by passionate language so to whomever you are... thank you for sharing x

I want to drink every sound that beats in your mouth and drown in the sea that burns in your pupils, be the final resting place of each echo in your chest, and fill my soul with every poem found in your kiss.

e.v.e.

Bend but do not break... the breath of eternal life resides within our hearts and minds

“She once thought that the damage to her mind and heart was permanent - until she met Wisdom, who taught her that no pain or wound is eternal. That ll can be healed, and that love can grow, even in the toughest places of her being.”

Am smitten with the way this person expresses my own emotional struggles, turmoil and ideals sooo cheers for that x

The art of survival

Words and phrases once ran wildly inside the head

Now constantly filled with daily tasks and bullshit instead

Are we all artists and writers? Most just choosing the flat barren land

Disregarding truth and refusing thought to be held in hand

The brutality of honesty white washed at what cost

Generations of fake identity, true hope, and ideals eventually lost

Though we might try to run the machine catches our heels

Grasping our souls in control, destroying simple ideals

Every pictures painted different through millions of multi colored eyes

Eventually the screaming inside breaks free, creating art that might survive

Shame is an instructive tool for some situations and therefore is occasionally useful. It helps us form evaluations of our choices, inspiring a will to improve. It creates change. Mostly though, it's a toxic waste pit of corrupted purity.... the desire to do good, to be good and the inevitability of man or woman's inability to stay true to those pure ideals is where such angst comes from. Be truly afraid to fail yourself but never afraid of another's perceptionof your success.... comparisons are rarely of benefit to either party, given that subjective bias means the death of objectivity.... you are the only one worthy to judge yourself at the end of days so worry (if you must) about finding fault in yourself once your life is truly and finally over..... when you are weighing your soul on the scales of truth and justice in the beyond nowhere. Remember that allowing the notion that change is not possible or that hope is not as eternal as time itself is incredibly self-defeating. So when you slowly draw your last shuddering breath, realise and truly understand how ridiculous it is to measure one individual life against another's.... what you see in you is what your life is all about and quite frankly, other's opinions of you should be none of your concern..... there are far more epic trips in the conscious cosmos that require time and effort....

Another sensational piece of writing... you have an innate talent for capturing a phrase x

Starlight

I rearranged the stars last night Correcting the perfection of the heavens I set your soul next to a black hole To see if we could be torn apart You held on to saturns rings Like every past mistake I’ve committed Using its gravitational pull To launch meteors from your lips I brush them away along with the cosmic dust Settling for a seat on the dark side of the moon Where I can drink alone And you become consumed

Simple eloquence is a thing of beauty, and this quote is abundant with it... come dance with me through my surreal daydream x

“I’ve always liked quiet people: You never know if they’re dancing in a daydream or if they’re carrying the weight of the world.”

I am moved beyond words... this resonates with me in every way.. your words have touched my soul...

The Poetess

What would it feel like to be the thoughts running through her mind. To be the space between each syllable or the period at the end of a line. To be the break between the softness of her lips on the exhaling of deep thought. Or the wind running wild over skin with the scent of sunshine I’ve long sought. She colors the mind in pastels of sunsets and shadows of the moon. Holding the conscience captive with descriptions of stars we desperately hold so true. The beauty and boldness of concept is what poetry has meant to me. Living only within the finite spaces keeps us from seeing what words can be. She reads to me with softest tone keeps me company when I’m alone. Undeserving yet predisposed, whether rhyme, or rhythm, or simply prose. With a simple kiss I will live with her close, her simplicity, her fury, her truth, and unpredictability I’ve always loved the most.
