So many posts, so many poets, all with so much to say: From depression to elation, amusement or anger, Face happy melancholy on a lonely nostalgia, For ridiculous notions of false power, ugly truths and beauty which scours a battle between angst and acceptance in their most forlorn hours, spent at home or away, throughout night or day, so many words struggling to capture, release or keep at bay these things we all feel everyday.
Sometimes I just don't know what to say so I let another's words give my thoughts away: "I guess I could be pretty ******* about what happened to me, but it's hard to stay mad when there's so much beauty in the world. Sometimes I feel like I'm seeing it all at once, and it's too much. My heart fills up like a balloon that's about to burst; And then I remember to relax, and stop trying to hold on to it, and then it flows through me like rain, and I can't feel anything but gratitude for every single moment of my stupid little life." That's all I didn't have to say.
