My days are being slowly filled (overflowing) with schoolwork and social commitments, missing my brother and learning to live. The house feels a little less familiar without dear JC, but that sentiment is reserved for another post, another day. There are times when I forget how wonderful it is to exist; and reading old words (wise friends) eases the ache that accompanies lonely hallways/empty beds.
Hark, there are so many that I love, this feeling is hard to convey in such limitations. Some notions are only truly understood by living - you can analyze things over and over, but in the end this can only result in mere observations, you will only ever grasp the shell of emotion: fickle and fragile, nothing like the absolutely terrifying real thing.
(the way you wanted to disappear, holding back tears/
trembling hands and fluttering lips, first(second, third) kisses/
you ate my heart/ i love you/ how could you/ i love you)
I prattle, without significant consequence and I apologise.
For the lack of poetry, lack of beauty in my words: I can only offer blunt thoughts produced from late-nights, spent listening to Beach House and Bon Iver and classical music (an embarrassing admittance*). If you've managed to read this all and remain from promptly un-following, you are a doll. And if not, I adore you anyway.
Love to you all -

* Perhaps what is even more embarrassing is my radio being constantly tuned to Classic FM these days. Oh, I kid - Bach/Tchaikovsky/Beethoven/Debussy are totally on 'coolness' levels with Gaga etc. Doesn't everyone indulge in a little of their parents' classical music every now and then.....? (Yeah, I'm looking at you)

ReplyDeleteyou must not apologise because this is beautiful, it truly is. you always write so elegantly.
Oh love, even seemingly trivial posts like these never fail to amaze me at your beauty. You're a dove.
ReplyDeleteHappy belated Valentine's Day, sending you all the love in the world, dear Athena :)
ReplyDeleteYour words are absolutely beautiful; and truly an inspiration for me; hope everything is well for you my dear; and which part of Aussie are you from? If you are anywhere near Brisbane; it would be awesome if we could meet or something! xx
ReplyDeleteDearest Athena, you are beauty personified, and so it follows that every words you write is also beautiful, even when you are not trying to be. Also, the photograph is absolute magic, perfect in every way possible. ♥ Oh and perhaps I misunderstand what you are referring to, but I must say, there is absolutely nothing embarassing in listening to classical music. I listen to it daily. It makes me feel alive. All my warmest love, xxxxxxxxx
