Body language …

She spoke with a wisdom that resonated deeply, “If we cannot revel in each other’s poetry, then there is nothing here. You cannot share the intimacy of another’s body each night and fail to find beauty in their language.” For in the whispers of our words, in the verses of our souls, lies the true essence of connection. To intertwine with another is to embrace the symphony of their thoughts, the cadence of their emotions, and the melody of their being. It is to cherish the artistry of their expression, to find solace in the verses that dance from their … Continue reading Body language …

Unlove me …

Unlove me, for I am but a silent and fragile wanderer, lost among the autumn leaves, feeling the weight of the world in each raindrop that falls. These words, they cut and choke, blinding my eyes in windows that reflect a weariness with the world. Disarm me with your smiles, unlove me for the shameful mistakes that stain my soul. Let the sunsets and goodbyes bleed me, as I leave home and forget about the promise of spring. For I am dying of love, suffocating under its weight. Unlove me, release me from the chains of affection that bind me, … Continue reading Unlove me …

The art of encounter …

Have you ever paused to ponder the paths we cross before we finally meet the ones we are meant to love or learn from?

A giant soul

During the tumultuous days of World War II, a young Japanese boy stood before a funeral pyre, his heart heavy with grief and his mind consumed with the weight of loss. He waited patiently for his turn to cremate his younger brother; his eyes fixed on the flames that danced before him. As the boy stood there, lost in his own thoughts, a guard approached him and asked for the body. The boy, his voice barely above a whisper, replied: “He is not heavy, he is my brother.” It was a simple statement, yet one that spoke volumes about the … Continue reading A giant soul

Her silence

Suspicious and uncomfortable in the silence, she sought refuge in the cacophony of her own thoughts.

The silence, pregnant with the weight of unspoken truths, was a source of anguish, for within it lay the echoes of her own unspoken fears and insecurities. To listen to the silence was to confront the unspoken parts of herself, the familiar ugliness and the unexpected virtues that had long been buried beneath the surface. These were facets of herself she had long sought to … Continue reading Her silence

In the hush of the naked light, I beheld a sea of faces, countless souls adrift in the ebb and flow of existence. Ten thousand people, maybe more, their voices lost in the cacophony of life. Each one a solitary figure, lost in the crowd, speaking without words, hearing without truly listening. Their eyes, windows to the depths of their being, betrayed the silent yearning for connection, for understanding. Yet, amidst the noise and the chaos, their cries went unheard, their pleas unanswered. In the naked light, I witnessed the paradox of human existence – the struggle to be heard, … Continue reading In the naked light I saw ten thousand people, maybe more.
