Favorite Quote:
Thoughts are boxes; people are spheres. One may view a box from at most six angles, while spheres are constrained only by infinity—yet, those living within humanity's limits prefer to put spheres in boxes rather than to recognize their individuality. If a psychic epidemic were to once again, we can ascertain that humanity will look the other way in favor of mundane things rather than that and those surrounding us. The biggest dream is that which is not realized.

I don’t know why, nor how, nor why 

remaining blind

to the sweetest reveries

present in my mind.

I’m all alone, for life, for love, for life

yet, as you cry,

“loneliness” of which you speak—


it doesn’t align.


Staying alive, to die, alive,

as humans live,

remains painful, right?

To stay in mind, a sigh, with wine,

drinking a lie—


it’s difficult, right?


So tell me tonight,

humanity's lie—

Tell me tonight;

tell me sweet lies—

Lovers ignite,

forever, to die—

So tell me that—

 

you’ll always be mine,
