ambivalence#1 }
pain is for the privileged
would a drowning man clutch at a straw?
farewells are supposed to hurt, yet
you let nature take its course,
for
no wanderer shall ever roar,
in the pathway of sorrow
you, your love, my love
and my soul, naive
not blessed with grace
would i remain innocent?
be alright
chasing birds on the green grass
under the blue sky up above, baby blue
, not one cloud in my sight
if it were not for your love
that made you laugh when i cried
would the sky and the sun
merge the night into the day
and forever, warm my heart?
thank you, my love,
for all that you have done
your best, for me,
hold your worries for I am in
some sort of a golden cage, thankfully ; doing my time
waiting idly with a heart
something to laugh at, fragile
is it warm or on fire?
with a fire
a mission to burn all that you have done
i have done
and once more to,
light my face up and warm my heart

soil, the calm terror,
offers a bed for the ones who desire,
the cold, the rain will not bother
those who fade into and rest with ease under the warm water
the faith and the joy is the most strong within those,
with a track such that it is
blurred and distorted,
there is no sound to the song
they sing for colors are blended,
the voice is weak
soil, the calm terror offers a bed for the ones who desire, • • •
(an incomplete poem by me, i will probably complete it..in about a century..)

That was Youth with its reckless exuberance when all things were possible pursued by Age where we are now, looking back at what we destroyed, what we tore away from that self who could do more, and its work that’s become my enemy because that’s what I can tell you about, that Youth who could do anything.
William Gaddis, Agapē Agape (via quotespile)
