You
Someone Right For Me,
will change me,
rearrange my head to be,
Just right for you and me,
Don’t laugh, please listen.
-Shady XV
A great hope.
A great hope has crossed the earth
A great hope has crossed my fear
Please.
Please be well.
Timestamp
Someone asked me why I don't put a timestamp on the posts here...
Because when I look back at old posts it's not the time that matters. It's about the feeling.

This Too Shall Pass
Attar records the fable of a powerful king who asks assembled wise men to create a ring that will make him happy when he is sad, and vice versa. After deliberation the sages hand him a simple ring with the words "This too will pass" etched on it, which has the desired effect.

All is well
All is silent
19 Years Old
I was just nineteen years old
When I cut myself in two
The boy I wanted them to see
And the boy they never knew
Hid my hollow bones away
I've been hiding ever since
Yes, you may see the odd smile
But only ever a glimpse
But my heart was never broken
It was born in several pieces
And with every passing year
The size of the segments decreases
I was just nineteen years old
When I died for the first time
I did not cope so well
With leaving my childhood behind
I didn't want to face up
To these wretched bent back blues
But will I give in to the struggle?
No, with respect I refuse
See my grandfather gave me
The stubborn heart of an ox
I will die before I collapse
A coward I am not
