In The End

I know that we just met,

But I can't help but wonder,

If we will last forever,

Or if this is bound to end.

How silly am I,

To believe there's something called forever,

In a world that itself is mortal.

Maybe there's something that means more than forever,

Like being together for an entire lifetime,

Knowing that one day it will end.

Saumya Thapliyal

[writertalks]

I've asked my guardian angel

to free me of all ties

And show me that side of the world

where heartless humans reside.

So I could be one of them

and be a loner soul

And play this game of earth

of treachery, cheat and foul.

He asked me, if I was

already tired of it all

Who knows if I still hadn't

experienced my worst fall.

Who knows if life has in store

For me, a deeper abyss

I have a long life ahead

so much more to live, than this.

I cried all tattered and broken

Can't do this anymore!

Have myself served on a table

And allow all devils to devour.

He laughed out loud at my misery

Said i can't give up now

With my foremost breath intake

I'd survive- was the very first vow.

He suggested I slam my heart

onto the people, places and things

And let it wound a magic carpet

from all those attached strings.

If I'd save myself too much

I won't have much to live

Life ain't a book of receipts

It's how much you've got to give.

-Vanshika Singh, Slam my heart.

there is nothing in my life i have loved that I have not loved with all my being no one I’ve held that i didn’t wrap them in my arms so tightly i stole their breath no one I’ve touched that I haven’t embedded imprints  of desperate fingers on their skin no one I’ve kissed that I haven’t left traces of toxins on their lips and I’m sorry it was the only way I knew  how to love then.

If hurting me does not hurt you, you don’t love me. You’re using me.

Read, read, read. Read everything -- trash, classics, good and bad, and see how they do it. Just like a carpenter who works as an apprentice and studies the master. Read! You'll absorb it. Then write. If it's good, you'll find out. If it's not, throw it out of the window.

— William Faulkner.

Quotes by Sylvia Plath, The Journals of Sylvia Plath

[imsayak]

People aren't homes, they never will be. People are rivers, always changing, forever flowing. They will disappear with everything you put inside them.

~ Nikita Gill

Ada Limón, from “Sometimes I Think My Body Leaves a Shape in the Air”, The Carrying: Poems

[mysterieuxclairdelune]

I am jealous of those who think more deeply, who write better, who draw better, who look better, who live better, who love better than I.

-Sylvia Plath

Bilal Al-Shams, Sacrifice

[iambrillyant]

“your gut instinct is not a liar, those initial feelings exist for a reason, sit on them if you need to, process whether your feelings are valid or just projections, but never dismiss your intuition when the signs are staring you in the face and your nervous system is agreeing.”

— iambrillyant
