“It feels like rain. And it feels like the rain will feel like love.”
— Don Pomerantz, from “Looking for Love,” Tar River Review (vol. 59, no. 2, Spring 2020)
I'm tired of writing my own heaps of thoughts, give me yours, let the water flow from your mind, let me consume your convictions and let there be an amalgamation of ice cold water & fire.

“I won’t kiss you. It might get to be a habit and I can’t get rid of habits.”
— F. Scott Fitzgerald
it is true, we do not know the existence of something, until it is felt in one way or another. the sunset was not known, before its brilliance in crimson, blush, and magenta was seen evolving across someone’s vision. thunder was not feared and hidden from until it was heard booming into a person’s eardrums. sunlight was not warm until it gazed upon a strangers naked skin. and i am forever misunderstood until my words land upon the hearts that need them the most. and what could be more prevailingly real than that.

Evening lofi 🌟
An evening stroll with a person I love…
“If you inherently long for something, become it first. If you want gardens, become the gardener. If you want love, embody love. If you want mental stimulation, change the conversation. If you want peace, exude calmness. If you want to fill your world with artists, begin to paint. If you want to be valued, respect your own time. If you want to live ecstatically, find the ecstasy within yourself. This is how to draw it in, day by day, inch by inch.”
- Victoria Erickson
Books make me feel like i belong.
They give my mind wings,
and hence i fly.
Warm my heart,
and let my ego melt.
Make me feel all the emotions
that I've never felt.
My partner for warm and cold nights,
helped me twinkle in the darkest times.
Never make me feel lonely,
a friend in disguise,
like the sun under the bright blue sky.
Even when melancholy pours,
so does sadness in my heart.
I keep you close,
you're a part of me.
