If you look for perfection, you will never be content.

- Leo Tolstoy, Anna Karenina

[books-storms-cats-soup]

poetry is beautiful and depressing and doomed. poetry is what makes my existence a tragedy and poetry is my reason. poetry is what binds my soul to the pain of humanity and poetry is my salvation.

[fettfleisch]

the scent of the night calms me and makes my lungs flutter like the wings of an angel fluttering desperately to watch the fall in time because he was in the sauna too long with all his men, but that's what makes this smell so goddamn good

"The thought of loneliness haunts me. And yet, I’m intimidated.

Intimidated of the thought,

I could love someone like you."

Dear heart, please let these feelings fade .

you turned my black and white world into an iridescent dream

[reincarnated-ghost]

I shouldn't be breathing right now,

I don't deserve to

[sneet-snart-feet]

you're not going anywhere near my feet >:(

You're moving into an attic

and I live there as the roaches

you dont want to share your new space

and that makes me feel atrocious

and I tossed the women into da sea

fly on your haters bitchy b

i'll lick your feet

yeeeee

:D

when Rory Gilmore said, "I live in two worlds, one is a world of books. I've been a resident of Faulkner's Yoknapatawpha County, hunted the white whale aboard the Pequod, fought alongside Napoleon, and danced at the Jellicoe Ball. I've seen the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness, starving hysterical naked. I should be a postage stamp, because that's the only way I'll ever get licked. I'm a citizen of Stars Hollow, the most magical place on Earth. I've wrestled with the likes of Kirk, danced with Miss Patty, and sang with the town troubadour. I've lived on a street with the most colorful characters you will ever find. Yes, I have many friends, but my biggest fear is that I'll turn out like one of those Tana French novels, where nothing is ever really resolved and everyone just goes on living their messed-up lives. So I've learned to settle. Settle for the fact that I'll never know what happened to the Romanovs. Settle for the fact that if I ever have kids, they won't know what it's like to grow up with a father. Settle for the fact that my best friend is a woman who's been dead for 40 years. Settle for the fact that I've spent the last 16 years watching backup dancers become stars and pop stars become drug addicts. And I've learned to settle for a life that will never be half as extraordinary as the one I've imagined." It was a beautiful and memorable speech! 💌

The Lost Souls Of Greed

Gold is the sparkle of one’s eye

While dirt is what fills the empty cresses of one’s stomach

One will mine until the earth is sunken and void of anything

And another will scrape away to blossom their yield of spring

The saying comes and goes

You harvest what you grow

You receive what you give

But my dear, the earth isn’t hollow

And you reap what you sow

The gold you desire will come to a halt with the pieces of earth you assault

The blossoms you yearn for will come to an end with the trees that no longer bend

Desire is putting everything and anything as collateral with fate

But it isn’t a house that is in jeopardy

It is much more

It is much less

It is what keeps you breathing

It is anything that makes you happy

It is a single sliver of your favourite book

It is an entire shelf of your mismatched life

For a being that runs too deep into the woods

Is a being with lost limbs

For a being that climbs too far up into the mountains

Is a being with stolen breath

But, oh

What do you call a being who runs with both their eyes closed

Desire guiding them onto a broke cliff edge

A human?

A figment of your imagination?

Both you and I?

from Patroclus to Achilles - moments before

if i must die, i hope it is for love 

if it is love that kills me, i will die willingly

i will go without a fight, if it saves you, my sweet Achilles 

you have always been a hero 

but i will be a martyr 

this is the death i want for myself 

i will go, so you do not have to 

you will live on, Achilles 

you will live for me, Achilles 

i have lived a soft life

i, a poet, you, a soldier 

but in my final act of love, i will become you, soldier 

become you, Achilles 

you will hate me for this 

but, darling, if i must die, it will be for love 

yours in this life and the next,

Patroclus

She is just a girl a simple girl who's trying to know herself trying to make it through trying to be her best . But she doesn't know where to start from where and keeps going in circles back and forth .

Sometimes it feels like she knows herself she has full control over her emotions over her thoughts over her body over her mentality her consciousness and subconsciousness but does she ??

She's trying her best just to get compliments to be charming to be what everyone aspire to be but she knows if anything it's wrong !! If anything she needs to be her best for herself not for others but she can't help it she craves the attention!!

And in order to improve she's still wondering from where to start ?! What does it take to be a shining star ?! What to do in order to be this glowing rainbow?!

She keeps wondering and wondering and wondering....

Sare bandhan tod ke main bhagi kuchh aise,

Ke haath na main yu aa paun........

Bhagi main kuchh aise,

Ke pakadte-pakadte main yu fisal jaun.......

Fisali main kuchh aise,

Ke girne se pehle main yu ud jaun.......

Udi main kuchh aise,

Ke aasman ko chhune se pehle main yu ghabra jaun........

Ghabrayi main kuchh aise,

Ke apne pankh dubara failana chahu phir bhi naa main yun faila paun......

Dubara maine failaye pankh kuchh aise,

Ke aasman se aage main yu nikal jaun......

Aasman se aage nikali main kuchh aise,

Ke zameen ko main yu bhul jaun......

Bhul gayi zameen ko main kuchh aise,

Ke apne ghar ka rasta bhi naa yaad rakh paun.......
