Words Unspoken
There is a community of the spirit. Join it, and feel the delight of walking in the noisy street, and being the noise. Drink all your passion, and be a disgrace. Close both eyes to see with the other eye. Open your hands, if you want to be held. Sit down in this circle. Quit acting like a wolf, and feel the shepherd's love filling you. At night, your beloved wanders. Don't accept consolations. Close your mouth against food. Taste the food. You moan, "She left me." "He left me." Twenty more will come. Be empty of worrying. Think of who created thought! Why do you stay in prison when the door is so wide open? Move outside the tangle of fear-thinking. Live in silence. Flow down and down in always widening rings of being. There's a strange frenzy in my head, of birds, flying, each particle circulating on its own. Is the one I love everywhere? Drunks fear the police, but the police are drunk too. People in this town love them both like different chess pieces. ----------------------------------- All things that we hide in our hearts eat us alive. This book is - full of emotions, love, care and agitation. Well, you need to read this to know what's in. Moreover, It consists of quotes, snippets, poems, bits of advice...Ummm simply deep and random stuff. Go Ahead!

ℍ𝕖𝕒𝕕𝕝𝕠𝕔𝕜𝕤~ 【Yandere! Oh Sangwoo x Male! Reader】
You knew there was something wrong with that man. That perfect to a normal eye kind of man. All you wanted was to confirm your suspicion and or get hit in the face with the fact that perfect people exist and not actually get dragged into his little game. But he sees you more than a plaything. He sees you as a gem. An unreadable gem of sorts...

Monstrum Marinum | Siren!Rafayel x Reader
"The Dark Sea is no ordinary sea," the old woman continued. "Its waves are as black as night, and it stretches far and wide, so deep that not even the sun's light can reach its depths. But that's not the worst of it, oh no. For beneath those waves, there are monsters-terrible, dreadful creatures that would freeze your blood if you were ever to lay eyes on them." ✨✨✨ fem!reader x rafayel. royal! au. sea horror! au. heavy angst. minor and major character death. slow burn. romance. fluff. explicit scenes. trauma. religious themes. gore; hinted torture, cannibalism, self-cannibalism, decapitation, violence. He watched her from the ocean's veil, A creature wrought from myth and sea, His love, a secret, soft and frail, Yet in her gaze, he longed to be. She knew him not, as days went by, That eyes so wild could turn so tender, She danced beneath the starlit sky, While he, unseen, became her mender. He shaped his voice to earthly sound, His form to walk where mortals tread, Yet in his soul, the sea was bound, Its ancient call filled him with dread. Alone she stands, with heart undone, A lonely maid upon the sand, shells do lay broken in hand, The sea sings low of what's begun, A war of hearts, flesh, and blood.

You were my First Love; toxic, unhealthy for my state. But i learned Love from you; you taught me what it meant to spend nights crying at the edge of my bed and how it felt to really smile. ************************* This is a collection of poetry for one series- love, pain, toxicity, heartbreak and memory. This is the first experience at love I had. I share with you my experiences, my thoughts, my recollections, my struggle and everything I felt.
