a man lost in love's reflection

through the darkness of my mind, i search. no compass. no map. walking through the valleys of souls long entangled with their lovers. this is not my resting place. ════•●•════ when it comes to affection, i am unsure of my desires. constantly lost on whether it is love i seek, or proof that i am a worthy object of affection. for each time man encounters an experience, the more they search for what has yet to happen.  and we long for it. that ache beyond our organs. and regardless of our faults. egocentricity. uncertainty. we gaze into glazed glass, probing for what morsel we can seize. ════•●•════ i am but a man passing through rooms not my own. watching. is it the sensation of grazed skin? the shiver gained from their gaze? or thoughts of exploring another's mental landscape? i apologize for i could not tell you. because i search for a treasure. unnamed and unmarked. left forgotten and erased by gaia herself. for how does one find what is not known? that could be anywhere. that cou...

establish new distractions—as once your mind is let astray,
your heart will wander.

we seek actions to distract.
and many distract their minds until their demise.

however, if you choose—
silence your mind.

only then will you truly acknowledge the human condition,
and why you run from it.

i sat with the star's words.

for a moment, i blink—
and lose sight of the young star.

blink again,
and they return.

only then do i realise
the young star is my soul,
reacting to my decades of mental silence.

for i had been stripped
to the bare and raw human condition:
loneliness.
