"Please Don't Let the Voices Find Me Here." (...) “Many, But One…”

I am drinking the last Starlight— As much of sickness as of health: While dreams have walked, insane, beside me, I find I am not sane enough to let you go… More afraid of thoughts I no longer occupy Than I am of afraid being nothing at all; So, through my every waking sickness, I have thought more of you as Health.

It is good, they say, to weep… It is good, they say, to weep…

For the ways my heart has broken itself In the places where I was innocent enough To hurt you in smothering silence… I shed such tears: as if you have died, Just as you said I should pretend it was so— If to say goodbye to an empty grave was easier Than to feel I have been forgotten…

Thus, I have seen if it is good to weep… My tears are nameless; and many, But one…one remains unfallen While the Starlight dries my throat, And none will bear the cup to me. None will give me water… Thus, I see if it is good to weep…

a spoken word piece of mine, "its been over a year and im starting to feel alive again," about grief, growth, and finding bits of yourself that youd thought youd lost.

[wayfaringauthorofficial]

He wrapped me around his finger before I could get a look at his face, see the flames that burned in his eyes, the darkness that cloaked his soul. This wasn’t an angel staring down at me, wasn’t a man with a golden halo ready to take me to paradise. I had fallen for a devil in disguise again, and he was ready to take me down to whatever hell he had built to keep me a prisoner in… forever.

But what if he looked too much like a savior when he smiled at me? What if his words were soaked with honey, or if he was the one who made me want to sing love songs in the shower again? What if he was the boy who took the weight from my shoulders and cast it aside, for the rest of the world to deal with, to give me a break from the pain? Maybe falling in love with the enemy isn’t so bad after all. He’s better than most of my friends, better than the man who called himself my father. Better than the demon with sapphire eyes handing me a shovel in the desert, warning me to dig my grave before he does it for me.

-Falling for trouble.

I love getting to meet people from different places in the world. I always feel that my own world has grown bigger each time. I was at a membership assembly this weekend, and it ended up being a multilingual event, with English, Spanish, and Portuguese all being spoken during the sessions. We learned about mística in social movements from a couple people from Brazil and Cuba during one of them Saturday. It's something I'd really enjoy an entire workshop on. It's such a beautiful practice, and there's so much to it that can't be said in an hour.

I also was able to get help re-stringing my guitar (did I ever talk about it on here?; hell if I remember, I'm tired 😹). I still don't even know a single chord properly, but it sure is fun. I took it down to the bonfire and played around, and got a lot of encouragement from people. I also had easy access to a piano to have some fun with. Someone did a walk by the hall, then backtracked because he saw me already with my guitar. But I often forget that Nanny had a piano I liked to play around on, it just needed work done on it.

Though I actually have the goal of being a multi-instrumentalist. I think I always have, actually. I have music in me, I come from a musical family. Mom played the violin when she was young, and Dad played the coronet and harmonica. Grandma played the tuba, but I don't remember what anyone else might have played. I think my grandmama played the flute, but I'm going based on what I was told. In my elementary school band (well I tried, anyway, I was just insecure as hell), I played the xylophone and drum pad. It was fun, and I do long for a drum again.

A couple people brought a drum, ukelele, and a four string banjo. Another guy brought two banjos. Someone else had a bass guitar, and then someone else brought his acoustic guitar. The music was fun, and there was a lot of good poetry shared, too. I loved the time I got to share with others this weekend. It all made Mom's birthday (Saturday) end on a highly positive note.

My version of flirting is looking at someone I find attractive multiple times and hoping they're braver than me.
