I don't want to become you… or be what you are. I want to be me, natural and spontaneous, without that fear that arises inside me when I witness the indifference I am given for simply being me.

No quiero convertirme en ti… ni ser lo que eres tú. Quiero ser yo, natural y espontáneo, sin ese temor que se suscita en mis adentros cuando soy testigo de la indiferencia que se me obsequia por ser, simplemente, yo.

Reaction to past memories

I can’t wait to stop loving you. I can’t wait to stop being drained emotionally and feeling this physical and spiritual emptiness. I can’t wait to stop thinking about you. I can’t wait to stop believing that you ever wished to be my rabbit. Lies. 😭

For you even this is a transaction of words. The thing is - You will only understand how devastating and traumatic it is, when You have lost something, you would have sacrificed for.

“We live in a world where the funeral matters more than the dead, the wedding more than love and the physical rather than the intellect. We live in the container culture, which despises the content.”

I’m one of them 😞

“Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone else’s opinions, their lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation.”

How true! Felt it with proclamation of feelings that i took seriously only to realise - they were like a social media post

“I don’t trust words anymore. I only trust actions. People can pretend to do a lot without beeing serious about it.”

What does it take for us to make this kind of behaviour an attitude? We talk but when it comes to is we don’t implement (i struggle - but so wish i could reflect at least an iota of such kindness and compassion)

Quiet in my head

I heard you whispering to me

In the back of a dream

If only I remembered

The tones of your voice

Instead of the vague feeling

It left with me

I retrace my steps

But as all dreams do

I'm swept off my feet

By this mutable wandering

[four-eyed-frog]

00:37 and crying

Teardrops cascade down my blemished cheeks

Staining my soul with the fear of loosing you

I try and smile to fool the world

Only i know how much this hurts

Melodies of the night are silent

shadows are cast in the darkness

Of hopelessness and memories of unrequited love

I keep on trying, but i fall on my knees

I’m broken and bruised

But no one cares cause they don’t see the hole in my soul

The inconvenience of having a childish heart

Slowly and steadily I grow older

Therefore the hope that one day this will end

I will drift off into vapour

Oblivion will forget what it is to be in debt to the smile of a girl who made my world go round

Time will forget the tear drops of passion

Numbness will cover what were moments of magic

Those teardrops that cascade down my blemished cheeks, dries

I have nothing left

I close my eyes

Wishing i never wake up and

Finally find peace

So relatable for those who feel the hurt caused by the one who made ones world meaningful

As I put my own swirling thoughts down, I realise, it was pointless. I simply just have to understand and let life take its course. I can only wish for their best, though there is a sense of incompleteness and lack

I can only hope that the moments shared and that which was treasured, will be missed. A reminiscence of -

1. The boy who gave you heart attacks with his little shenanigans

2. the boy who looks cold, but in reality was burning for you,

3. the boy who’s butter hands held you with the sole purpose of letting you know that in this madness there is this warmth that was only for you,

4. the silly boy who would jump in and off a tuk-tuk to be with you,

5. the boy who was overtly sensitive but all he wanted was your attention.

I can only wish that when I’m gone, some day, something will remind her of the dreams we built together and she will miss me and know that I wasn’t such a bad a connection after all.

As for me, this is the fortune of chasing rainbows

Farewell

I'm saying goodbye to you, like a wake.

I cry a lot. I say goodbye to you, I thank you and I ask that wherever you are, you are happy. Then I accept that you are not here.

As the hours pass, my anguish increases. The songs fill me with melancholy and sadness and I can't control my tears.

I realize, a requiem for myself I wish, because I am also dead.

Sigh

Sometimes I love you in silence because I can feel your heart bleeding and I know that it eats up the voice in your throat. So I hug you and cover you with my love and acceptance as the voice in your hands finds the embrace of my eyes. I know no better way to love you than to hear your soul speak as you pour the truth of it as you write and as I read.

e.v.e.

this sounds like fun! Recite on Leute!

Note to myself: To croak or not to croak that is the question…

Poetry Community

Hello!

I would like to invite everyone to participate in a reciting poetry event. I and many others have had the privilege of reading your work and would love to hear you recite it!

How does it work?

You will create an audio or video post reciting your own poetry.

Please use the tag #writersrecite as your first tag to make sure it can be seen by all! I have created a side blog to also reblog these entries as a place to easily access others work. You can find me @writers-recite

Any rules?

I do ask that if your poem is 18+ that you add that to the description below the audio/video. When I reblog it, it will have a mature hashtag as well.

No reading work that is not your own and claiming to be yours. Big no no!

Feel free to reblog this post, my side blog post, or tag others to get them involved.

Have fun and let loose. Genuinely excited to hear your words come to life!

“nothing touches me but nature”

the nature of your smile

the way it softly falls

between the cracks of me

the nature of your fingers

the way they find the lines of my skin

following their flow

how they slip down the edges of

where the pain wanders

the nature of how whatever is lost

never really returns, it just keeps

being lost even after it has been found

the nature of tears

how they find their own

sad song that nobody hears

the nature of nature

that it is merciless

yet beautiful

how long has it been now?

what is the nature of this hunger?

surely it is to simply

devour itself.
