you were adding poison to each sip of my drink when i thought those were the alms keeping me extant.
you were the one stitching me up to push me in the mud when i was piercing myself with the thorns to bring you roses.
you where making me filth when i was wishing every night to the sky so you could have the lights and stars.
i always thought love was pain but love is more likely a way of contentment in grief because it makes you feel alive even tho' it is something that killed you.
all my midnights are like this, loveless and soulless.
You have many thoughts that could be well perceived by few ( I count myself, idk i might be wrong most of the times) and those are truly magical. But don't you get scared living in your world of esoteric concepts an notions.
I seem to have missed this question earlier.
See, life is such that uncertainty is structurally inherent.
Do I sometimes have self doubts? Am I uncertain of things? - I certainly am. But life is a play. I am not very conversant with the deeper theories of quantum mechanics, but it is fascinating enough that an electron behaves both as a particle and wave, its velocity precarious and unquantifiable except in probabilities. Many ways, this is true about our lives too.
Perhaps the point of being alive is just being alive. We are cursed to make abstract theories about life, afterlife, before life, in the middle of the life life and so on. I am no exception. There are times when I am foolish enough to make theories and life invariably always quashes those beliefs. I have been humbled by life over and over again.
I am scared. Sometimes. Such is life.
But when I am in deep harmony with life, surrendering myself to its rhythm, joyfully ebbing on the undulating waves of highs and lows, I am deeply fulfilled. Grateful to be alive. To see and feel this miracle called world. It is so beautiful. So mysterious. And we are here for such short period of time. There is so much to marvel at. Let's devote ourselves to curiosity and gratitude. We will certainly grow old and die. What is there to lose? Just rejoice.
what makes one weak.?
- their thoughts.
{Words by Anaïs Nin, from The Diary Of Anais Nin, Vol. 4 (1944-1947) / Cynthia Cruz from diagnosis,The glimmering room}
my heart, buried in the woods of anguish and forlorn. the restless game, should i keep it in or let go? in the labyrinth of tears i lost the battle. my mind, weeps in solitude impotent of surviving. blabbering to stars and staring into space. my body, covered in blood of my assassinated soul. cuts and bruises bleeding wounds what keeps me alive? a speck of hope.

How was your day..?
-August.
"You deserve a lover who takes away the lies and brings you hope, coffee, and poetry."
~ Frida Kahlo
he wrote poetry all over my skin
and i fell in love as he went on
we played stupid silly games
till it was the time for dawn
in the darkness of night
everything was full of ecstacy
there happened many things
with starry sky and you and me
your hands are intimidating
and how sensually you speak
caramel brown eyes
conspicuous, alluring physique
that moment was perfect
and how you did me undress
your face was bright as city lights
i didn't want to see anything else
