a small token of kindness (10th August 2021)
everyday the sun sneeks lazily into the sky; however with a face of marked difference each day. some hours to its body clings a mask of its own shadow for it longs to be not left to the sky alone. other days it fears to be seen by the ones who cast upon it a farewell glance and fly closer and nearer to it thereafter. and then, every once in a while, it wishes to hinder its existence and stop bruising those under it with its harsh demeanour.
likewise, under the guardianship of the sun, the moon takes form; here again, the phases speak for it enough.
its craters are poignantly sharp and they sting it with a mean frown for which reason it rises only as a half. other times, the sun guards authority upon its light and refuses to share the neccesary amount; thus only a quarter of its body is noticed.
the changes- no matter how trivial- make the day a little unlike those that have passed.
wake up early if you must but delay not in sensing the air in your chest during the early hours of life. peel the sun's rays and escape to its silver lines. tear down the earth below your feet and find yourself amidst the granules that you step upon without a thought. in your mind, let alone a corner for the moon to make notes for it is in need of a dark shade away from the sky; somewhere better welcomed, an area too personal.
it is not a piece of new knowledge that you have abandoned your days and nights like a rotten flower, unnecessary to be tamed. the thought of growth has begun to haunt you in your soul, and even through your ribcage.
forget the regulations, there is a world beyond it. watch with squinted eyes and a palpitating heart, there are little stars you miss out on.
the more you take life for granted, the lesser it appreciates you.
besides, you have died a little yesterday, you will die a little tomorrow, so why not live today; only a little, with little?
