September 16th

Every night, at approximately 1:30 am there is an aeroplane hovering above her house. It was the third time she heard it. This night was no exception. She wonders if this is the last time she will hear it. This routine was comforting for her. Soon she will not be hearig any aeroplanes or the barking of the dog next door. She will find herself in complete solitude. It's what she wanted. She already feels alone. She will make it. She is so much stronger than she thought. She deserves so much better. Finally she is starting to understand it. The more she grasps the idea, the more easier it is for her to detach herself. Even though he was important to her, she is proud of herself for standing her ground. It was harder than she thought. She lost two things with a couple of sentences. So be it. It was her time. She will not be defeated. He wasn't right about anything. And she is convonced of that. His words did not pierce the bricks, did not shatter her beliefs. It's weird that she actually feels liberated. She can breathe on her own and she can pursue her path (whichever that is). It's strange how you get to know people. The persons that you least expect become so important to you. What is even weirder is how these connections evolve. Persons who you believe will always be there walk away. She didn't. Because of her she hasn't given up. For the first time in weeks a tear rolled down her left cheek. She felt it on her neck. The salty liquid dried and left an invisible trace. She could feel it on her face. Yet she couldn't cry. She couldn't sleep. She was alone with her thoughts.

  1. I sing the Body electric;
    The armies of those I love engirth me, and I engirth them;
    They will not let me off till I go with them, respond to them,
    And discorrupt them, and charge them full with the charge of the Soul.

    Was it doubted that those who corrupt their own bodies conceal themselves;
    And if those who defile the living are as bad as they who defile the dead?
    And if the body does not do as much as the Soul?
    And if the body were not the Soul, what is the Soul?

  2. știi că ziceam amândouă la un moment dat că de multe ori lucrurile frumoase sunt și incredibil de simple? ceea ce ți-am trimis mai sus e prima parte a unui poem pe cât de simplu, pe atât de profund. NU e genul acela de poezie în care până și la virgulă trebuie să stai să te gândești care-i este scopul și ce subînțeles are folosirea ei. e ADEVĂRUL spus în față, viața constatată în versuri. așa e si restul volumului scris de autor (Walt Whitman), ”Leaves of Grass” - a publicat vreo 9 sau 10 ediții (nu mai știu exact), dar nu există mari diferențe între versiunile poemelor. dacă ai răbdare să citești ”I sing the body electric” și îți și place, trebuie să ne întâlnim urgent să-ți dau cartea. e una dintre lecturile care mie mi-au schimbat puțin felul de a privi lumea, în ansamblu.-e mesajul care l-am gasit pe facebook de care iti spuneam...

  3. e ora 1 noaptea si eu citesc. and still reading. intotdeauna am detestat sa citesc poezii, cu toate ca mie imi place sa le scriu. ironic. but this is different. it actually makes sense. i shall be carrying on with my reading thus.
    thank you for telling me about it!
