vessel of the void

The Ocean

Will there be a day the pieces finally fit?
Or is the tide just a ghost of a fractured bit?
I thought to sink, to settle in the deep,
But even the abyss has secrets it must keep.
When I roar, they say "Hush, be still."
When I hush, they mock my lack of will.
Everyone’s current, yet a stranger to the blue,
Ever wondered how the salt feels for you?
I give my warmth, you take it for a crime,
A thief of my goodness, lost in the lime.
Where is the harvest for the seeds of my grief?
I am the surge... seeking relief.

The Shore

hush...
your despair is the womb of a truer light...
distrust is the soil, not the end of the sight...
it is the duty... the pulse, the sacred law...
to find the goodness in every jagged flaw...
break on my breast, let the bitterness go...
for only the broken find the status of flow...
no regret in the marrow, no ghost in the blue...

everything is loved... especially you

Bigger Person!

In the process of being the bigger person, people often think you're easy—someone who will always come back, no matter what. The art of being a better person is often confused with being the bigger person. For me, when you have to be the bigger person, you don't have to forgive every single person for their every single mistake. "Mistake" might be the wrong word, as who are we to judge, but if soemone has hurt you, then you don't have to accept their apologies without a genuine apology from them. In the act of forgiveness, you tend to carry all the dead weight of your life! Yes, you heard me right! Not everyone is genuinely present in your life, and life at times throws you off balance to help you understand this and to cut that weight. But no! You're told you need to be the bigger person, which in turn supposedly makes you the better person! If you don't make people face the consequences for their actions, then you're simply becoming a par...

My influencer

Image
Who is my influencer? Is it the learned and accomplished? Jack of all trades? Knows about every field and sets a high standard of reputation and of living. Is it the learner and ambitious? Who is always on to learning something new with every experience, who slows down to bounce back even harder.  The one who remains active for god knows how many years, hustling. Is it the super humble know-nothing pupil? The one who is eager to learn, one who puts in efforts and is so fragile of losing. The one who learns failure means to never have tried in the first place and gets up to try again. Is it the one, is so respectful of everyone who gives an opportunity and is grateful for everything. Is it the kid?   who is carefree, wholeheartedly happy with even the slightest gestures and isn't sad for too long. For the kid, every moment is a new moment. Is it the elderly?  who has seen lives, lived a life and has calmed down after experiencing everything. The one who now adv...

How?

Image
I read: " Mistakes are what makes us human " " if you never try, you'll never know " But,  how does one acknowledge and recover from, that one mistake, that one wrong friendship, that one wrong company, that one wrong step in the career, that one wrong step in a relationship, that one wrong relationship, that one wrong reaction to an action, that one wrong impression, that one wrong day, and so forth. How can one gather back all the confidence without questioning their credibility and ask for another chance? How can one break that one wrong cycle of wrongs? - Hope
