Beneath your fingertips lies the earth of roses, their essence entwined with sharp, thorny scratches upon your neck. Moist lips utter a cascade of words, attempting to dilute the value of any moment; these words, a subtle taste inspiring saliva that stirs the mouth, to spit a piece of game, loudly amidst the intricate game of cards that mirrors the tumultuous game of love.
Tears well in my eyes for those who are suicidal – cutting themselves, even as life unfolds as a beautiful wound. We grow amidst the pain of our parents, who pray silently that we are not handed over to their burdens at birth. It is a legacy, passed down through generations, where ancestors never dared to shatter the shackles of their subjugation. This oppression, cloaked in passive aggression, who can dream for their young, when they’re too busy living so restless? How can one value God’s favour, when you always rivalling other people’s blessings?
The notion of death becomes a familiar companion; in a world where malevolence persists, the thought of extinguishing it all seems a swift solution. Those pretty eyes, seemingly pure, can swiftly unveil the truth that being innocent is a fragile façade that can be lost in a sec. But wouldn’t you want to fall in love with someone who appears heaven sent – perhaps they hail from the heavens, but their arrival is more a descent. Even Lucifer must have carried a bit of Heaven’s scent.
Everyone seems decent every time you greet them; meet them a couple times and you mind tries to delete them… I’m thinking too much, the mind is the evil of the heart, when the two don’t always get along.
