#words and meanings

“whenever someone asked me to describe myself with a word, i would say moon. and not because of the romantic interpretation of its illusory magnificence. but rather because of its reality. the fact that's it's a simple celestial corpse behind which the sun slithers to cast its light. it was always the sun. it will always be the sun. the moon has nothing of its own, only a shape and the ability to reflect the sun's kind offering, as if it's trying to bring the poor moon back to life. i'd rather say the sun is a fool in this story, because sometimes things are either lifeless ever since they are born, or they gradually give up what makes them alive. and the moon we see today is one of them. i am one of them.”

Lost and Found

I kept searching for someone to complete me and instead I found myself.

Forest

A chilly forest

Beyond the geckos, a sea of dreaming birds paddles

The scent of sticky rain covers all the magnificent animals you see

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again

Alone

"Why are you so insistent on living life alone?"

"Because it's all I've ever known."

Swan

The ocean is home to the long-necked bird

With a magnificent scene displayed

Its fluttering pearly skin

As the smallest diving mammal hunting for this water shrew lasts only a few seconds, but their technique underwater is remarkable. Their eyesight is poor so they rely on foraging along the bottom to find movement with their long whiskers. To find stealthier prey they have the rare ability to smell underwater. By blowing tiny bubbles of air they can detect scent particles in the water. Nature on PBS
