I’m so sorry that I haven’t been able to post lately, but I’ve just been very busy. For the last two weeks, I’ve had a summer course at a *certain British university*, and now I’m in Italy to visit my family and friends (while also taking French classes in the mornings). Between all that and the insane heat in Europe, I’ve been completely exhausted every night. I’ll try to post more, darlings (aka the two people who like my posts)!

A Poem of Many Poems
To write, my darling
It is the only way, truly,
To be heard forever
I write because-
Because
No one can take it away
From me
Or from the world
As the poets say,
Littera scripta manet
The written word remains
Indefinitely
Even when not a soul
Can understand a word
Of what I’ve written,
The letters will be there,
The sounds,
The beauty
That there is in words,
In language
I will be a relic,
A fossil preserved in the golden amber
Of eternity
And words
The poet is as the musician is,
Forever in sound
Words and are simply that,
Beautiful melody
sometimes i read a phrase in a poem or a story or i see the clouds amble in the sky traced by sunlight or i hear a specific combination of notes on a piano and i just get so overwhelmed with a really specific feeling that i can't really name but i know that this feeling is so human and so tender at its core and that i am a tiny little part of a world so delightfully rich with sensations and i exist to experience this very feeling because it stems from the pure human love for coexistence with the world

Can any of us really claim to be happy if we haven’t danced in the rain? Held hands with the moon? Had poetry carved to our name? Had our favorite book annotated and presented as a token of full fledged alliance?
