Okay so I wrote these poems because of some people, some thangs, and some places. These rants though are just add ins because I cant write what I rant about in poems but just in a angry looking paragraph or something. Or I just need to fangirl. So p...
"If you want to know what someone fears they'll lose the most, watch what they photograph."
I came across this quote a while back and slowly I got into the habit of reviewing what the subjects of my photos were.
I even would go through my instagram uploads and well I realised what I am afraid losing. I find it funny how I never really knew what my fears were but now this quite somehow made me realize what they were.
One of my most photographed item would be flowers. I asked myself, If flowers went extinct would you be able to live without them? I thought about it long and hard and realized. I dont have a big collection of flowers, floral thing, or floral scents so my answer to that question surprised me. No.
To me flowers are a reminder to us that even though not many people compliment them, photograph them, keep them, they still continue to bring the world beauty. The only time a flower will die is if it isnt taken care of. Flowers remind me of people. When people cease to take care of themselves, they get diseased.
When it rains, flower grow. Despite the storm, they still grow. If a flower doesn't survive a hurricane, it just means their roots werent strong enough. As people, our roots should be strong. If our roots arent, we mustnt blame anyone for that.
Another subject my photos contain is me. My face. Call me vain or narcistic but its true. I'm afraid of losing myself. Forgetting who I really am. Losing my identity by being someone else. Being forgotten. Which brings me to my next subject.
My friends. I take tons of photos with my friends. Because let's be real here. No matter what you say. Loneliness will always be something you dread. I dont like "selfies." Despite the fact that I take them... a lot. I dont gain happiness from being alone in a photo. I get why people like them though but I prefer pictures with other people. Pictures with family, friends.
It reminds me of the support team I will always have no matter what. If you dont have many friends, one parent, no parent, distant relatives, dont be sad. I know words coming from me wont help as much as I'd like them to but hey. No matter where you are, who you are, what you are, you will absolutely never be alone. Someone will always be there for you whether they show it or not.
God will always be there for you.
Before I get too emotional, lets move on to my next subject. My pets and food. I take tons of pictures of my cat. This is him :)).

Id probably be dead by now if it werent for his calming aura. He's there for me at the strike of twelve when everybody is asleep and he'll scratch my arm when I get too emotional.
Food. Who cant live without food. Thats pretty much it actually. Just. FOOD is FOOD.
