Proud of my broken heart since thou didst break it,
Proud of the pain I did not feel till thee,
Proud of my night since thou with moons dost slake it,
Not to partake thy passion, my humility.

Emily Dickinson (1830-86)i wish i had words to express my hurt, my anger, and my jealousy. i wish i had words to describe what it feels like to be me

When we deal with Death, even just a brushing touch, we are reminded of our own mortality.

Change is an absolute. Death is but another change. Since we are attached to Life, Death is a Change we fear. If we instead recognize Death as part of the process of Life (for that it is -- a process, not an on/off state), if we accept Death as natural, it will not cause us continual harm.

When we fill our waking moments with Fear, we have no time for Love.

thats what upsets me. i do not want to be afraid but i am and i cant make myself unafraid.

[dartpoly]

if you are afraid, face it -- name it. find how it is small. become bigger than it.

try the Dune mantra:

Fear is the little death... I will face my Fear. I will allow it to pass over me and through me. ... and when it is gone, I will remain.

you know, ive never seen that movie or read the book.

[dividemymind]

what is that title of that poem?

[fishbowlsoul]

emily dickinson never really titled her poems so the title is generally the first sentence of each poem

Words may not be what you need right now.
Maybe you can best express yourself with art at the moment...

[fishbowlsoul]

*shakes head* my art isnt coming to me either. i pick up a pencil and i just stare at the paper and everything i attempt to draw turns out like crap

[blackpage]

It will come back in time...

Damn shame I don't have much artistic talent... I have cool pictures in my head but don't know how to get it out on media...

[fishbowlsoul]

i'm having the same problem right now.. what i want doesnt show up on paper and sometimes thats good but not for what i want now.

It might even help just to scribble. It doesn't have to be anything. It might turn into something, or nothing. But the point is to just get something out.
