Float

As it glides gracefully to the floor guided only by the forces surrounding it there is no sound just a quiet emptiness of an instantaneous moment where the paper lined in blue separated by half inches slips from the hand.

Decelerating downward gracefully, almost fluidly with the push pull of gravity, dancing with newton and his apples' theories not fighting laws:  dancing harmonizing and whispering softly into the ears of this filled empty space. "excuse me I'm coming through,please make some room" as the blue lined paper comes to a halt upon the fuzzy threads beneath the air above the earth. Good morning carpet

Love

Love is when...

You stare across a room and you catch her eyes and she travels deep into your soul

she makes your heart stop and beat faster at the same time

love is the one and only feeling in which , you can selfishly say that someone is beautiful because you don't admire them for their appearance

but you love them for who they are

They have a beautiful soul and it shines through their being, giving off a brilliant warm feeling every time you are with them and makes you feel withdrawal when you are apart

Love is in a kiss, a glance, a touch, a breath and a beat of the heart

its surrounds us, and is what lifts us up in the morning when we feel like they may not be anything to live for any more

When you love someone they are your inspiration, your soul cries when they cry, and you are connected to them through yourself

A piece of bliss a tired eyed 2 second dream not crumbling or ending in discomfort or cold sweats, it seems like being pleased takes more lately... I just know that being alive my clock is slowly running down the minutes and taking away each breath as if it were stolen, I wish I could always be this capable ,and potentially full of life,spirit and opportunity as they say.
But in all reality I'm old at heart I have been worn and had my heart torn into millions of tiny shreds destroying and seriously handicapping the basic ability to feel the way I think, I fight myself and often find myself in the midst of a never ending battle, all I know is that I'm glad I never let you go,and leave my side, sometimes you are all I have to remind me this life is beautiful , talking about our hopes and dreams not only saves me from being deprived from this lack of consciousness but it brings me back to life, it breaks this shit hole routine of eat sleep work repeat our society has bestowed upon us like a curse.

In fact sometimes I wish I didn't have eye lids so my eyes were always open to the world, it's amazing that I may never see all the things I wanna see or do, in fact it's almost terrifying that even the life that isn't wasted still can end with not having enough time to experience true and complete travels. Travels into thought,place,and mind only have as much time as god has created our beings to eventually decay from.

I wonder if there's mountains in heaven ?

If you took me to the edge of a river and told me to look I would see it as a river

Maybe, I would feel the cool as the water evaporates back to the clouds it came from; or the feelings of peace and comfort from inside this body. This relationship I share with the river is platonic I am not In love with it nor attracted to it, it just is.

Some people say they can feel a place. Feel the spirit of those who have crossed it's path or influenced the gravel that lays asleep on the ground,they can feel the water displaced as the beaver carries it's wood to it's home, I am not some people.

I appreciate beauty where it's deserved but I am not the judge of whether a warthog has value over the majestic lion, he created this world to be exactly what it is, nonboastful and infinitely wonderful and it is .

If it could be I would adjust my perspective and dispense of my preconceived notions of beauty because as I said I see the river. It would be nice to feel it.

Since we all come from the work of one artist.





I now feel the intensity of the tree and fires it produces burning into this fall

But the good news is that atleast we try to do things that we may not necessarily think are 100 percent possible to achieve, I have been having a hard time keeping focused in my classes in school this semester because of the amount of work i have had to put into them and the amount of time school work is taking up compared to previous semesters. I mean it doesnt help when you can try so hard and still barely get by or in worst case scenearios fail..... I have failed for the first time in my life on a test in my math class and it was a surprise, but now more than anything i want to succeed just to prove to myself i can over come these walls i have placed in front of me.


I feel like spiderman, Yesterday i was just a regular Peter Parker, but today i have these new powers and i need to learn how to use them...... no wall may be too high, i just may need a little help getting up there at first.
