(no subject)
here are a set of spark notes, if you will, in attempts to try and decode an otherwise cryptic post. I will try my best to accurately remember how I felt almost a year ago.
thought all day about my personal evolution.
about my ridiculous obsession with love.
about warmth[1]. and fingertips[2]. and eyes dark as egypt[3].
about explosions in the sky and tangled sheets[4].
about perception. and learning. and reasoning[5].
about hearts pumping more than just blood.
about how the earth is not a cold dead place!
about haunting[6] and oak trees[7]...
and the greatest thing you'll ever learn[8].
1. body heat; love that is abundant and overflowing; also the potential energy that sparks from a single smile, when expressed silently, face to face and eye to eye
2. not just two sets intertwined, but the simplest instruments eager to contact skin as if it were readily and easily available; excitingly grasping another's ribcage to pull them into your personal space as a place that is welcomingly invaded
3. a pair of irises, both equally saturated by the deepest shade of brown, they are pure and honest and understanding; a trait I subconsciously seek out time and time again
4. literally- listening to the second half of "Day Six" from The Rescue EP while falling asleep from complete exhaustion after a lustful night at summer's end, bare and covered in a mixture of sweat and city water, the simple pleasure of being cooled from the fan above. Also the enjoyment of recognizing the song only weeks later, and then remembering and connecting it to its time and place. Metaphorically speaking - I think that goes without saying.
5. all processes related to the brain, which almost never agrees with the heart
6. referring to a lingering thought or idea, one that occurs habitually, frequently, and persistently to the consciousness
7. a durable wood with strong roots; a metaphor for love planted into another's heart
8. "is just to love, and be loved in return."
