Nature Poetry & Springtime Beauty ~
Do you love this world? Do you cherish your humble and silky life? Do you adore the green grass, with its terror beneath? Do you also hurry, half-dressed and barefoot, into the garden, and softly, and exclaiming of their dearness, fill your arms with the white and pink flowers, with their honeyed heaviness, their lush trembling, their eagerness to be wild and perfect for a moment, before they are nothing, forever?
Mary Oliver, from "Peonies"

Give me all
Everything God
Has given you
Take it all
Anything you want
If only you knew
Nothing at all
Of me is there for the world
My living is a lie to all of you
If only at all
My body did as I told
My perceived deceit could've been truth
After all
How useless I seem matter not
I was conceived, created to enjoin good
So for all of yourself
I'll rot with every bit of you till anew
I'll tell you what's left
how I can be used
What nobody said
I'll say to your bruise
Every name has a place
I'll show it to you
This is not something to relate
I don't have to prove
You who's reading and read
not even for you
It's for myself
Like everything I do

Beautiful ~
i want death to be someone brushing the hair from my face,
whispering “go back to sleep, it’s still early.”
and me believing them.

Reality suffocates me.
Can I exist in dreams instead?

"All was darkness; all was doubt; all was confusion. The eighteenth century was over; the nineteenth century had begun.”
