Toriana

today was beautiful
all days are beautiful

but usually i can't see it
my senses are heightened

i feel light-hearted
and ethereal

i know from experience
it won't last long

Loss without Love

I always inevitably repeat the avoidable
While forever evade the inevitable.

From the Diary of a Stoic (33)

He who came out first
the future he couldn't trust
for the rest of his life he worried
whether his success would last.

In busily minding the business of others, you have lost your precious time leaving your own tasks undone.

ECHO

I have no voice
I am an echo
In the frequency
Of the soul
No need for ear
Or even breath
That breathe
The truth of old
Simple sound
Bounced around
As it fades
And reappears
Hear me not
In the physical
Repeat and leave
Me here
...

Hopes are not dependable.
Those with the highest hopes are likely to be the most disappointed.

Sticks and Stones

Sticks and stones...

Thoughts are just
sticks and stones.

But words...
They break bones.
