crashinglybeautiful:
…behind this outer facade, another life is going on in you. The mind and heart are wanderers who are always tempted by new horizons. Your life belongs in a visible, outer consistency; your inner life is nomadic. Hegel says, “just this unrest that is the Self.” Your longing frequently takes you on…

the empty envelope: Love In Four Parts →
theemptyenvelope:
I.
I was wearing a fur coat
and ten pounds of glitter
on my face when you first saw
me. I swung my hips in a way
that said I’m taken,
but we both knew that I wanted you
to buy me a drink.
II.
I was wearing a flannel shirt
and smeared mascara when you saw
me next. I hung my head in a…

hanswede: In Dark Vegetation →
hansansgar:
In dark vegetation I couldn’t see
my body or hear thoughts. Fevers
rotted memory. Maggots flourished,
established a parliament.
I hung in delirium, a sack
of neural bits and pieces. Birds in
endless green hooted and screamed.
I was transported to a desert that
cooked off…

Such a Lovely Education
hansansgar:
When she walks into a room,
she shines the shadows away.
When she walks into a room,
she shows hips how to sway.
When looks into your eyes,
she pulls them into hers.
When she looks into yours eyes,
the love-lust motor whirs.
When she talks, talks low to you,
warm honey comes to mind.
When she talks, talks low to you,
You feel your heart unbind.
The walk, the words, the...

You cannot save people. You can only love them.
– Anaïs Nin (via Swanfeather Songs)
I think I should have loved you presently
I think I should have loved you presently,
And given in earnest words I flung in jest;
And lifted honest eyes for you to see,
And caught your hand against my cheek and breast;
And all my pretty follies flung aside
That won you to me, and beneath your gaze,
Naked of reticence and shorn of pride,
Spread like a chart my little wicked ways.
I, that had been to you, had you remained,
But one more...
