collapse in a sly tender word. stretch out and find peace. reach for the brass ring, but realize. realize the cycles that breathe you. the circles that run and fall down the hill all the same. whatever life becomes, cycles. spirals and regurgitates. what you learn you keep, what you discard grows your discontent. like an elephant sitting on your ( Read more... ) -

you'll learn, soon enough, that delusions of grandeur, can be in themselves, subtle and sly: quiet in their own disquietness. but don't be an idiot. don't think for a minute, that you don't know what is happening before your eyes. you try so hard to be cold, you try so hard to not show. but have the decency to take your hat off before coming in ( Read more... ) -

You've always thought that love aligned itself with interests. It's only logical if you follow meaning logically. Would not the perfect mate share everything with you?

with the idea that a cage is only what you make it to be, your self-imposed limbo and self embossed lingo has caught up with you. opinionless drivel. passionless passing. passivity. you were truly relinquishing to be relinquished. resting to be restful. but you cannot be angered. only awake. awakened from the sunken suburban stasis like a pillow ( Read more... ) -
the greater times
Sometimes. It can feel like the most unnatural state. You'll bounce between selfless and selfish, but never meet them halfway. And then, sitting restless, you'll ask yourself, which came first, the feeling? or the relationship? Because surely you cannot have one without the other. Because surely one came from the other, or so you thought nestled in ( Read more... )
