Little Infinities
Lonely under the dome of stars and the striking moonlight, I gaze into the hollowness of pitch darkness. Lost in the midst of lurking shadows, nights without you is the circle of overwhelming gush of pain. Aeons of time, wondering, painting the face of yours deep in my heart, your absence seems to shrink away the life of mine. Everytime I am mirrored to your individuality, your skin, your eyes, your beautiful soul.
Desparation of parting is as frustating as being crippled, handicapped. It is like organ damage. However, unlike peaceful death, it is tormenting, the pain is endless. Sacrifice they say is reaching the extremity of salvation, living for the betterment of other knitting hopes of creating a better world. But if i was to die over time and again in longing and desperation, would I be able to pacify my soul? If I was hungry for love, would my effort in keeping myself, forcing myself from keeping off the most beautiful feeling console my heart?
If the heart is aching for love, do I learn to deny it? Denial is for wrong doings and is love a petty brutal vice? Isnt love a virtue that reflects the goodnessi in others? Isn’t love our life? Isn’t love a necessity that keeps us alive? Isn’t love a quench for a thirst of better life that makes you feel good about yourself , that which makes you feel beautiful? Don’t I deserve to feel beautiful, to be loved, to be part of someones soul, to love someone so passionately that it hurts? Don’t I deserve to be with her when my heart beats to the rhythm of her soul?
I learnt that when my heart is voicing out for her company, I cannot console it anymore. I belong to the world and the world is wild. The world is free of wilderness of such vast extremity, that reaching out for her seems wild, passionate, longing, quenching, complete. I run with all the might and I see her in the distance, broken. I see her broken guarded by walls of pain. I see that in the dark flame of love I seemed to have wondered

    Love is sacred. The goosebumps painted on the skin are worthless without it. “Last Night”, written by Sharon Olds, is a perfect reflection of how being in love has a profound effect when in relation to intimacy. Olds compares her experience while being in love, to her experience when her feelings for her partner are neutral. Throughout this piece Olds conveys her message with the use of similes, repetition, imagery, and hyperbole.…

    As he stopped to take a deep breath, his heart ached at the thought of leaving her. He shook his head, smiled to himself. As though she would ever let him. He was grateful that she had obeyed and stayed when he asked. He had no idea what he was going to do, but he needed her out of harm’s way. All he knew was that he had to confront…

    While I look down at it, I think of a boy I once knew, of how, for a short time, he was a dash of color in my monochrome world. I think of how I drew him flowers; how one morning, he stood silently behind me and watched me draw them with a broken pen; how he swiped the card I drew them on away from me and held it close to his eyes, smiling, telling me how much he liked them. I remember going home that night and painting flowers the same strawberry pink as the tulip resting in my fingers, and I remember drawing those flowers again in black and white a week later. Those I drew on an envelope with his name written in large cursive letters in the middle. Inside was a goodbye I knew…

    From Alfalfa’s letter in The Little Rascals, “Dear Darla, I hate your stinking’ guts. You make me vomit. You are scum between my toes. Love, Alfalfa,” to the song Love Stinks by the J. Geils Band, it is apparent that heartache is felt by everyone. It can be experienced and dealt with in countless ways, but its universally-felt agony is what allows poets, singers, and writers to connect with their audiences in such a personal manner. In the poem “Getting Through,” Deborah Pope uses poetic techniques to make a personal experience accessible to a range of audiences. It is a poem of heartbreak that uses the devices of tone, language, structure, and relatability to illustrate the effect love can have on people and how hard it is to give that feeling up, even if it is not returned.…

    Today is one of those rare days in which it is raining and I’m sitting on the windowsill waiting for a sign. Something that says ‘move on’. There is still a part of me that hopes every day that you're alive and I haven't found you yet. I will have searched the far corners of the earth before I let myself believe you dead. I dream of you every night, then wake with the bitter taste of regret fresh in my mouth. You abandoned me. You have marooned me on this earth, and it is dark without your light by my side. All that fills my mind is when you were still beside me. I distinctly recall one summer when we were not quite children anymore and still too young to be adults. It was raining so hard that the streets were flooded for the first time in eighty years, and you had insisted on escaping to the desert.…

    The title for “Acquainted with the night” poem gives a sort of sad vibe because in life there are times when things do not go the way you want them to go. Just by reading the title I think that “Acquainted with the night” is a story about a man who just spends some of his time in the night walking around he sees the night as a companion and although the night can be sort of treacherous. In the night you have the moon and the stars to show you where you are and your surroundings because in life there are times when you do not know what to do this represents the things you can not see when it is night time. When the stars and the moon is there to light up some of your surroundings this can represent the wonderful sides of life or new opening…

    We hit a clearing and drop, the world spinning around us, soft grass comforting our throbbing body, the smell. The smell, what is it? It’s new and fresh. We open our eyes and are stunned by the sight. The darkness drowns us, but it is softened by something beautiful overhead; stars, all of them, completely beautiful, each one on its own and every one together. Simply magnificent. We close our eyes and relax, as it seems for the first time in our life, we are completely at peace. Before we know it, its…

    Poems have the ability to express hidden emotions through words. In particular, the poem written by Francis William Bourdillon “The Night Has a Thousand Eyes” enables the reader to think more critically and to analyze the present world. “The Night-Wind” by Emily Bronte captures the essence of true love; she encourages the readers to analyze their surroundings. Both poems have a great message being sent. They call the reader to think outside the box.…

    First love maybe is not the last one but to be in love is a pleasure. He and I were two poles of the magnet: one positive and one negative. Things could never be settled down. From “Anh” I realized that first love was sweet and unforgettable even though it would never last long. The childish dream, was to be together, just never came true. My first love was the best but only memories left, the familiar taste about “Anh” to me. In my own world, illusion about love always obsesses me. The thoughts that love will never end until my last breath, lovers can stay next to each other fill me up in my unreal world. After “Anh” has gone I see that lovers are not necessary have to be side by side, love is to see your partner’s happiness. “Anh” taught me happiness is not the thing you can see through right in front of your eyes; you see it by heart. It is also because of him, and his love that inspired me to move on. Now. I have someone for my own, someone but not “Anh”.…
