Flowers bloom

Even after the cold,

Despite the fear,

Trees grow old.

Rivers flow

Though rocks may stand,

Winds still dance

Across the land.

Glaciers move

In the sweltering sun,

Tides swell

Then come undone.

Mountains rise

Through fire and time,

Echoing fate

In peaks they climb.

Life blossoms

In harshest places,

Hope still lingers

In hidden spaces.

My dearest,

You will thrive.

Hold on strong—

You are alive.

Matt Haig, The Midnight Library

[celestialrambler]

Finished reading The Midnight Library by Matt Haig today. It left me with this thought: I am alive, and that alone is powerful.

[celestialrambler]

Does the dawn recall yesterday’s sky,

or does it wake, untethered, newborn?

A palette rinsed, yet tinged with echoes—

the gold of old whispers, the blue of unsaid dreams.

A Ghost's Plea

I'm a ghost drifting endlessly. Tethered to this world by nothing but gravity. Oh, how I wish for someone to reach out.

The silence echoes. Oh, so loud. It reverberates through my being. My thoughts scatter in space. Oh, so fragile.

Will I see the sunrise, or disappear with the moon? The stars glimmer as if they know. Yes, I know. You are not here.

A void rests in my heart. It is filled with loneliness. I conceal it in falsehood. This agony is unbearable. Don’t let it seize.

I’ll fare by. I will. But will you?

[celestialrambler]

Started The Midnight Library today. A book about choices, regrets, and possibilities—fitting, in a way. Wondering what my own library would look like.

To those who walk this journey with me—thank you. Keep shining in your own way. The world is better with you in it.

Happy Valentine’s Day!

A solitary star above a lonely highway

A single star shines alone in the firmament. Below, the highway sprawls like a lonely river of concrete. Its broken white lines fade into the darkness. It is a scene unseen, existing solely for itself. It doesn’t matter how dim the light is—rays that have traveled millions of years. The star blinks to its own rhythm, twinkling silently. Only it knows the highway. Only it knows the quiet.

Sit With Me

Don’t tell me to rise,

don’t tell me to fight,

I know the words,

I’ve whispered them at midnight.

I don’t need a push,

or a map, or a plan,

just sit with me here,

hold my heavy hands.

No fixing, no forcing,

no rushing me through,

just stay in the silence—

that’s all I ask of you.

Words Are Like Rain

Words, like rain, must gently fall,

Soft and steady, touching all.

Too much drowns, too little dries,

Balance rests beneath the skies.

A whisper heals, a storm can break,

Silence, too, leaves thirst in wake.

So let them pour, not fierce nor vain,

Speak with care—like quiet rain.

[celestialrambler]

Healing sometimes feels like being a ship in a silent sea—no waves, no wind, just stillness. You’re not moving, and you can’t even tell if you’re facing the right direction. But even in the quiet, you’re still afloat. And sometimes, that’s enough.

[celestialrambler]

Be your biggest fan. ✨

Write for yourself. You don’t need anyone’s approval. Your words are yours to love, yours to cherish. And you should—love them a lot.

But some things are too good to keep to yourself. Some words deserve to be seen, felt, and lived by others. ✍️

So share—not for validation, but because what you create is mind-blowing. And the world shouldn’t miss out. 💖

Stepping Back

My own spotlight on me

I turned it off today

Took the back bench

Became one with the crowd

Simply existing

Going with the flow

No more a main character

But one with a story all the same.

[celestialrambler]

Just wanted to take a moment to say thank you to everyone who follows me. Every like, reblog, and interaction means a lot, but there’s something special about seeing that support come from the people who’ve chosen to stick around. Whether you’re a silent reader or a moot who hypes me up, I appreciate you. Knowing that what I put out resonates with you—even in the smallest way—makes this space feel a little more like home. So, truly, thank you for being here.

How to Handle Emptiness When It Feels Overwhelming

Feeling empty can be tough—it’s like there’s nothing to hold onto. No clear thoughts, no direction, just a quiet heaviness. If you’re experiencing this, know that you’re not alone, and it’s okay to feel this way. Here’s a gentle guide to help you navigate through these moments.

1. Acknowledge Your Feelings

Instead of pushing the emptiness away, try to recognize it. Say to yourself:

“It’s okay to feel this.”

“Emotions don’t always need reasons.”

By acknowledging it, you allow yourself to face it rather than avoid it.

2. Let Your Thoughts Flow

Take some time to sit quietly and let your thoughts come without judgment. This can help you connect with what’s beneath the surface.

Find a quiet space.

Close your eyes and breathe deeply.

If you feel like it, jot down whatever comes to mind—it doesn’t need to make sense.

3. Look for Small Sparks

Even in emptiness, there might be flickers of something meaningful:

A memory that makes you smile.

A favorite song that brings comfort.

A small act of self-care, like making tea or wrapping yourself in a blanket.

These tiny sparks might not fix everything, but they can help you reconnect with yourself.

4. Be Kind to Yourself

Treat yourself as you would a close friend. Remind yourself:

“I’m allowed to feel this way.”

“This is temporary.”

Sometimes, self-compassion is the first step toward feeling better.

Even in silence, there’s something worth listening to.

Emptiness isn’t easy to face, but it doesn’t define you. Take things one moment at a time, and trust that even in the quiet, you’ll find a way forward.
