Emily Dickinson

To die—without the Dying
And live—without the Life
This is the hardest Miracle
Propounded to Belief.

Lord, fill my heart with Your love
Allow me to see You with open eyes
Forgive me for my transgressions
Take my hand and lead me home

It is not love that hurts.
It is our idea of what love should be like
compared to the love that we have.
It is not love that hurts,
but the absence of it especially when we need it most that hurts.

Everywhere I've been
everywhere I go
everything I've seen
everything I know
is written on the walls
and burried in my soul

They say a picture is worth
A thousand words
But without the words
And stories behind it

A picture is meaningless

I love you.

For only the second time, ever
have I confessed this
conundrum,
and yet.

I genuinely meant it.
I know you will break my heart someday.
WHO KNEW I EVEN HAD ONE?
And yet, I'm not scared. Because, no matter what.
You are, and will always be
worth it.

You will never embrace this life, unless you embrace yourself first.

Hadrian Veska
History repeats itself
None know that better than I
Having lived with the curse
Of immortality

I've seen empires rise and fall
Great persons change the world
Only be ridiculed and forgot
Lost to time immemorial

After millenia of watching
I came to a sickening revelation
That humaity is trapped
In an endless cycle of destruction

I have seen the world itself end
Not once, but three times
And I can feel in the air
The fourth end coming

Perhaps this is the fate of man
Punishment for his grevious sins
Yet I cannot bear to watch
Such suffering again

Maybe now it is time
I stop watching these endless cycles
And use this curse that was put upon me
To stop them once and for all

never wallow in your sorrow
it is hard to change our way
all we can do is be better tomorrow
than we were yesterday

don't dwell on indiscretions
forgiveness is a one way street
when looking for an angel
it's the devil you might meet

never wallow in your sorrow
it can only lead to fray
tomorrow is another day borrowed
it was made to be yesterday

words are very powerful

it can either hurt or save a person
even change a person's whole perspective in everything

those tiny words that can breaks someone’s heart,
those offensive words that destroy one's life,
those that was supposed to be left unsaid
and those that you can never take back

even if you don't mean it
it will always leave a big impact

words cut
and sometimes
it doesn’t even heal
at  all*

- c.n.
you destroy me with your words
