My knowledge about the world is held to a certain limitation. I can choose to ignore, or to embrace these observations that scream out to me. I would rather scream inside this deepened heart for now, though all I'll ever hear are the echoes of it's endless beating. That is all I know, or at least have been forcefully exposed to. Terrified by the perfect simplicity of life to others, I complicate my own.
All time has done for me is create a further distance between what I'm familiar with. There is a simplistic beauty in that all you lose, and a thrill in watching yourself lose it. But only true beauty from within escapes to the surface when you float alone; no other souls to guide yours astray, or pull you to the depths.
I love how powerful and deep this is!
ReplyDeletewow elyse this is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteWow, I love that.
ReplyDeleteI am a firm believer in the fact that what we lose will eventually turn into the biggest gains.
You look at ex-relationships and they will lead you to future happiness. Losing the comfort of high school, leads you to expanding and growing your education and independence. Losing is always presented with an opportunity to grow and gain in return.
This is so good! It is so deep, yet so true. I, too believe that we start creating distance with what we are familiar with, but that also creates space for other things to come in and become familiar with and then in the end they will again be distant. But this will soon become a huge gain!
