Quote – “The Man who Cries” – 2/5/2021
"No man will cry over sentimentality. He will, however, weep when the boulder during the present, buries him further into the earth. The guilt, harbored upon his shoulders, docked as a ship within his heart, overloaded with the cargo of self-disappointment, offers him the curse of blame for what he could not protect. Competence is,… Continue reading Quote – “The Man who Cries” – 2/5/2021

The funeral strikes the hour,As I waltz pastThe raining petalsThat do not,RepeatingDo notBurn, nor tearApart, at their solaced shower. Her hair falls back, lifeless,Never againTo be brushed by the hand,My hand,Facing the floor,Soaring towards the naked shoreWhere eyes can glimpse my stroking tears. I had loved,Meagerly loved,Simply lovedThe rose gathered amongstAll these forgotten petals.Her face,A… Continue reading Poem – “Grieve Me, in every Word” – Romance – 9/20/2020

An Analogy of Grief & Memories – Excerpt from a Short Story – 9/16/2020
Breaking between syllables, this painter is lost in his wreckage. A void for discovery's sake, to see a face that looks back to his pain, to the absence. As this memory unites with himself, a hollowness begins to become so apparent in its torture. Just a single pang of loneliness, doubt, and uncertainty to keep… Continue reading An Analogy of Grief & Memories – Excerpt from a Short Story – 9/16/2020
Short Story Excerpt – Title: “A Display of Sweetest Grief” – Romance – 9/15/2020
Grief is never so much a thing to conquer, in as much it is merely felt, like a leaf that had strayed from its branch. It has nestled itself into our shoulder, and stays there, not vowed for escape.

Philosophy – “The Idiocy Behind Self-Love” – 9/13/2020
"One should name themselves as weak, and forever such, when they dislike the idea of attaching themselves to a non-material thing, being a person. For if they were to lose that person, it could not be seen as expendable. It would be seen as forever lost.

Poem – “She Falters for the Wreath” – Religion – 9/10/2020
Just a wellTo dump the contentsOf her eyes.Deep blue as Neptune's children,AwakenedAs puling infants,Close to no mother,Close to no otherBut the cruel hands of a Father,Of God's sheltering darkness.For sheCan swear He created Hell. Water the cries,To water them, more.Water the lilies, upon the current to the brook,Draped as curtainsOver the stepping stone.She has lost… Continue reading Poem – “She Falters for the Wreath” – Religion – 9/10/2020

Stilled,Without a sign to the breathThat would raise youTo feel the morning's showerAgainst your cheeks,To receive the gleamThat can display lifeFor your acrylic eyes.

Quote – “The Same Strength of Weakness, when in Love” – 9/9/2020
"No guilt should be felt, upon realizing one is weak, while in love. Love is that, a strength and a weakness. Knees tremble, hands quivers, because we care for what we may lose. Love is that, an emotion that encapsulates all other emotions. We realize that our finding, being that love, cannot go, without us… Continue reading Quote – “The Same Strength of Weakness, when in Love” – 9/9/2020
