Oh if i were young
life would be done differently
you would be the one

Reblog – I want to hurt you by A. Rinum
So much food for thought, for growth.
I want to hurt you.
Stab you in the back, but I can’t do that without piercing the sword through my own chest first. I can’t make you bleed without causing a rupture in my own heart. How can I hurt you when your wounds cause me pain? I want to bring storms, cause earthquakes but I’ll end up damaging myself more than you. But I’m okay with that. I’m okay with tearing myself apart just to see that tear cascade down your cheek. I’m okay with burning away my existence, just to see that frown tug at your lips. I’m okay with fading, at least I’ll take away a part of myself with you.
Do you ever cause destruction to yourself just because you want to cause damage to someone else? That’s one of the most toxic traits you can have. Where you’re willing to rip yourself open just…

Reblog – You Are No Longer Mine by Angelique Rose
Haven’t we all been here at one point in time?
I read somewhere
That you were no longer mine
.
.
That you finally opened up your heart
And honestly, It was about time
.
.
I read somewhere
That you no longer belonged to me
.
.
That our memories
Are no longer cherished
It’s not my heart that holds your key
.
.
I never expected you to wait forever
To hide away
And pine for my love
.
.
But I read somewhere
That you are finally happy and moved on
.
.
My heart paused a little
It broke for a moment
As I remembered what we lost
.
.
But I always knew that our love
Was gone
When I walked away
I knew the cost
Reblog – Empathic by Doree
Empathy, sympathy, concern, it’s what makes us humane.
~~~
I do not know
No
I do not know your pain
I feel it close to my heart
But
I do not know your pain
~~~
I’ve felt
Shrill sheets of energy
Shredding through my being
~~~
Back and forth
Back and forth
~~~
Until I couldn’t anymore
~~~
I do not know your pain
But I feel it just the same
And for what it’s worth
It must be terrible
~~~
Reblog – The Sound of Songbirds by Penny Wilson
This piece magically transports me to this beautiful, serene place. Enjoy!
To listen to my heartbeat and feel my lungs fill with air. To have nothing I have to do no place I'm expected to be. I want to listen to the quiet. The noise of this world has grown and I cannot endure much more. I wish to listen as the stars find their path across the sky. I want to watch the morning dew dissipate with the rise of the sun. The sound of songbirds is enough for me. Copyright 2020 Penny Wilson

Reblog – Cursive Prose by Martin Lewis
When I originally read this piece, I commented “A lover’s language…”. Such a sensual piece. I wonder which writing tools were their favorites? 😉
CURSIVE PROSE
I close my eyes
and in my thoughts
I ink a cursive
unwritten verse
upon her nakedness
poetry for us alone
words that she will only
let our fingers trace
whilst reading
to each other.
Reblog – Coping. by Nancy Botta
Loss, whether death or the end of a great love affair, can haunt us for eternity. And muddy our existence until we heal. This is one of those pieces that just gets you right in the heart. Thanks, Nancy.
You left for some time
ages ago
long enough to haunt,
long enough for everything
loud and living
to sink into itself,
a cavity beneath waves…
but I’m OK now—
day drinking with Nemesis
laboring rust and dirt,
I lie with your bones
and start fires at night.

Reblog – That Could Be Me by Angelique Rose
Sympathy begins when you realize it “could be you”, may it translate to empathy always.
I saw her scars
Evidence of a life
Where great just wasn’t good enough
Where She was always just one nip away from perfect
One tuck away from perfection
One stitch away from happiness
I saw her eyes of desperation
As she picked at things I could not see
Although I was happy to oblige
I wondered where in her life she was during each scar
I wondered about the painful recovery
I wondered about the broken heart
Or the healed one
I wondered if she was finally close to happy
I felt sadness for her
But only because that could be me
One nip away from happiness
One tuck away from perfection
One stitch away from perfect
My heart broke for her
But only because that could be me

Whether humans are empty or filled in divine,
Trees carry the fruit of life along,
Don’t take the word, but take the symbol to find its meaning.”

they come into mind, and disappear as such;

makes me blind,
life goes by,
whatever!”
No. 23
“Love that has nothing but its substance,
where those who perform know,

than a claim as goal might can?
But if a goal is what you hold,
Is it motivation or attachment?”
