“this festering world” ,a poam

[manytoonepoet13]

They say falling in love is an unconscious occurrence, as matters of the heart usually are. Yet I refuse to believe these emotions were simply unconscious, as though done on a whim one day just because — no. I fell in love with you because my soul saw something in you before my eyes could even register the shape of your name, and my mind decided that it was something worth knowing better before my heart could even register what I was feeling. And my entire being continued to choose your arms as my home, my heaven on earth. All of those were conscious decisions done out of my own will because I saw the reason why I should pursue you, why I should love you. And while yes, love is wild and untamed... choosing who your forever love will be is a controlled and conscious decision Perhaps that is why people may date numerous people in their lifetime, yet only ever yearn for and stay with "the one", also known as your spouse. You love them, yes, but you didn't choose them. Now, one wouldn't really consider that as love, would they?

A sign to love with the mind, for emotions truly came from there, after all.

Perhaps nothing in this lifetime will be enough for me.

(ذكراك أمّي)

أمّاهُ..

أتنفّسُ كلَّ حينٍ بركةَ دعواتِك

تجري أنهارُها تحت قدميّ..

لم تنقطع عنّي أنوارُها

تُلهمني أن أكون

كما تريدين..

ويحرُسني من كلّ ضُرٍّ

رضاك..

أمّاه..

ذكراكِ قائمةٌ

لا تنقطع ليوم لقاك..

أمّاه..

يا وجهَ الجنّةِ

و يارحمةَ اللّه بيننا !..

محمد بن جماعة

She blooms in her own season,

unfolding petals that once hid in shadows.

No rush, no shame—just growth,

steady and certain, like the sun rising.

Each step forward whispers,

“You are exactly where you need to be.”

The past is not a weight,

but a teacher,

and she carries its lessons lightly.

She is not late,

she is arriving.

Not broken,

but building.

And as she becomes

the woman she was always meant to be,

she smiles—not with regret,

but with knowing.

Sometimes you need to sleep, sleep a lot. Not to escape, but to rest your soul from your feelings. Because everything, absolutely everything devours you. Completely.

feel too pathetic to tell anyone about it you are all I want to talk about these days, don't care about christmas or new year’s eve,

by laurenmaerie, ‘you are kind of everything right now’

I'm passing by, I want to get lost in the silence of the grove

Don't distract me

I'm writing letters to my first love

fading is the easy thing to do. but to persist in spite of the temptation to disappear makes you stronger than you will ever allow yourself to realize

being on this app is so surreal. americans are usually the ones that learn about other places and people everywhere else already know about america because we're everywhere online. we've never been on the opposite side where other people are learning about us -- and they are horrified about our "normal"

the country america spent our whole lives trying to convince us is miserable and suffering under an oppressive government that starves everyone and controls their media? that's just projection. turns out besides like... housing prices and few available jobs, china is doing pretty great. they originally believed we were all living it up "the american dream" way and now they're all thankful they were born in china and have no idea how any of us are even alive

[silent-insanities]

Am I truly happy, or did I just convince myself that I am?
