cyrene

what if i was a petal?

swirling to the tunes of the air, graciously falling among spring leaves

weightless, mindless like a feather.

how peaceful life would be, if i was one.

just one petal.

This was inspired by the story and the meaning of young forever by BTS. This song has helped me when I needed it the most. Just light to my darkest days.

the state of consciousness.....

To be a conscious being,
being conscious
is important.

*******

The horizon is less
a mystery now
and split down the middle
I won't take sides
to a war wrapped
tightly around
this pretty little future
but for some
inexplicable reason
I can't take
my eyes off of it

vernal wisps

vernal wisps

been a-while

spring abridged;winter night

each layer of snow colder n' heavier

earth lay frozen and I frostbitten

icicles of gloom

lining my chest,eerie chill creeping

heart benumbed;slowly melting

basking in apricity,duly warmed up

awaiting spring

anew

let's just hope for the best✨

Chill With Me, Amongst All This Chaos

Chill With Me, Amongst All This Chaos

Regardless of those outcomes
These comings and goings of great joy and unpleasantry
Sing as my heartstrum stings
Bow and my base drum rows
For regardless of today aloud
Would you just be with me
My world for-unever in being
Together we'll forget the how

Having a great day? I rejoice with you. Having a horrible day? I suffer with you. Regardless of these and all of THIS. Can we just sit together for a moment and be still? Be chill?
