#aristophanes
We were once told that we are the missing part of someone else with an empty heart and a lost soul, taking the absurd, roaming around the world as barely whole. And as I look at two points, a double vision meeting the one's orbs, unwaveringly— a north star, perfectly aligned upon the night sky. An anchor to a heart, it is engraved deep in waves, tumultuously enfolding each flesh— a longing as to be found in the wilderness, a pillar as to be run into, safely. And though my love clung to a myth, bounded to a constellation embodied us and traced in our palms, they will remain a story from the past.

Aristophanes
I want to find you Aristophanes told me about you And the completion of my soul Our soul I want to find you But Heidegger tells me to wait Let the wind carry remembrance Let love find me I learnt it is possible Your existence Maybe you don’t know But I am possible I want to live in a van with you Learn how to love technology And appreciate what brings us I want to live in a van with you Learn to depend on my own And paradoxically depend on our unison while self-relying I am tired of planning my tomorrow I do not wish to have you tomorrow I wish to find you now I want to live in a van with you Travel the world apeiron* gave us And be alone in the universe Paradoxically enjoy my solitude with you I wonder if you sing the same song And if you are shaped to meet me And the world I know of I want to be your nobody And live alone with you In a moving home In a moving truck I want to hate me And hate you too Just to realize hate and love are the same coin just different sides I want to depend on the harmony And the tension of true songs While we learn to fit in each other And cry in unison One song Two souls One friendship Two forces
