love's conformity

love's conformity


on a sunny pan asian morning,
lounging on the sofa bed,
half dressed,
listening to rock and roll,
and smoking a few joints or so;
i realized, life is a collision of lost souls, all in search of true love.
what have i been chasing this whole time?
the perfect tarragon chicken sandwich? haute horological rolex?
the perfect damsel in distress? or maybe just the real me?
after all, the relationship with yourself is the one that you need to work on for the rest of your life..

*

blessed with a beautiful smile, she ventures out into the chaotic world.
armed with faulty equipment, choking on the salt water,
suffocating in extreme agony.
being flippant isn't the way.
teeth were bitting her lips, a continuous movement that brings upon an epiphany.
each day, she's absorbing life like a sponge.
learning the absurd, dipping her feet in various oceans.
she longs to live the glamourous life, yet she's desperate,
to understand the lowest of the lows.
empathy is her strong suit, emotions are her driving forces;
variety appeals, constantly colliding with a myriad of lost souls.
but which combination produces the most intense energy?
committing to the institution, is that the right thing to do?
she questions herself, full of doubt.
her beliefs represent an unfinished jigsaw puzzle.
there's still so much left to match.
how does she begin?
she longs to be free-spirited, yet something's pulling her back.
she desires to touch and be touched.
she wants to cherish and be cherished.
but first, she needs to work on her issues.
intimacy isn't a fancy affair.
it's real.

now put on your coat, slip on some loafers,
and start trekking before another moment passes you by.

Very nice post friend 👌. thanks for sharing

oh God, i love this poem..,

listening to rock and roll,
and smoking a few joints or so;

immediately i saw those lines i knew i had to finish the poem.

each day she is absorbing life like a sponge

the simile here is laded with so much imagery and deep meaning..,

she longs to live the glamourous life, yet she's desperate,
to understand the lowest of the lows.

This line just shows how we all struggle with decisions and choices between what we want and what we think we want....,

I so much love this poem and all i can say is thank you.

@honeybee this is a lovely piece. I actually identify with her....... You know like wanting to do everything at once but being careful not to, cos you are afraid of losing especially in love. Kudos for this piece

You may have unintentionally posed in just a few words, the entirety of our whole universe, our circles of life, our drives and our growth. We are indeed searching for love, within and outside - appreciation from outside, and acceptance from within. Beautifully written. I especially loved this part; "what have i been chasing this whole time?
the perfect tarragon chicken sandwich? haute horological rolex?
the perfect damsel in distress? or maybe just the real me?"

Wonderful. X

inspiring. thank you

"Жизнь - это столкновение потерянных душ" как красиво, особенно если саму жизнь принимать как школу любви. Научиться любить, значит научиться не теряться больше никогда! Спасибо за прекрасные строки.

You can feel the heart and soul and deep desire of connection in this.
Beautiful to read.

I love your choice of words. Will be starting my blog soon and will want you to check it out. I am new here. Thanks

Females are powerful indeed.
