Beholden

Faut souffrir pour ĂȘtre belle...
Can beauty only be found in sadness? Does our pain make us more wise. Perhaps, more able to deal with life, namely more pain. Why do we do this to ourselves...

Silence is alchemy

Spiels of confused mumbling, interjected randomly with frantic/lazy (if it's possible to be both simultaneously..), incoherent, ill-defined, elusive punctuation...

Such is the style of my writing. People seem to interpret the word "style" as a complimentary adjective to any given subject, but that is not the definition I have read. It simply means the typographic arrangement of the jumble of words that one throws together - and as it is written by you, as such, it is distinctive to you (albeit probably similar in a million turns of phrases and punctuation errors). I point this out in such elaborate length for the same reason I guess that makes me distinctive as a person. I do not want to own any pride in what I produce. I do not want to lend any credence to a belief that I consider my ramblings to be worthy of merit or interest. I want others to know this, so they believe I have more to offer. I don't want them to think that by reading my words spewed forth in any given state of eruption, that they can somehow glimpse my soul or anything. I want to believe that I can do better...


No word spoken can ever be retrieved,
But silence doesn't carry her own weight..
She whispers a thousand thoughts and doubts
Without releasing a one,
And feeds on the insecurity
Of the weak....
