Interestingly, being weak on something doesn’t mean you’re not strong. It is just for that one thing that we have to learn from.

There’s definitely a lot of truth in this, but also everything in moderation. Becoming fixated on things won’t make you better, just neurotic.

Nice writing Daniel.

Thinking is the root cause of all our suffering…. we can’t stop thinking but we can stop long enough to watch the mind.

INTENSE. sexy and entirely enticing. Overwhelmingly sense worthy. through yourwords I gasped, moaned and shuttered for you. . I too want to let myself feel and be felt. Mine, this.is my all time favorite. It is so so rare that I lay upon another’s inviting calligraphy . It takes a lot for me to be submerged, you did just that.

(()Fuck yes!))) love it. scarred beautifully by it and that controlling ting oooiuuff.. .gods
yes i.said a lot but well deserved

Even though she was in control, it seems that she is angry. She needed this, and of course, it would be with him, but she is furious that she had to cave into her own body’s desires. Good write

I understand completely the words you put together about a subject I know quite well.
I’ve written similar pieces and shown my wife, hoping for a spark to keep the fire alight.
Hope your terrific composition has more success than mine.

The yearning is palatable. I hope it goes well.

Indeed, everything changes. I would suspect, or at least in my own life, the choice to switch what I am perceiving is all interconnected.

Das ist ein sehr schönes Gedicht, Daniel! Ich kann mich absolut damit identifizieren.
The use of opposites is the perfect stylistic device to underline the fact that in our dreams and illusions we are most alive! Brilliant!

Powerful and poignant.

Emotions can grab us when we’re not ready. Your mother had a lot of wisdom.

Good one, Fia.

Crying is a way for the body to release hormones that calm us down during stressful times.
Next time you cry, pause for a moment and reflect on why you’re crying.I doubt there will be a logical,solid,single reason.
Great write Fia 💋

Oh stop being so tough. LOL.
Everyone needs a good cry some time. Its how we flush our eyes out!
Hell, I even secretly cry a sad tic toc videos, in private! LOL.
I’m a softy at heart!

Great words, Fia. Now let it out! Cry!

I think I envy those who cry. I can’t seem to, and believe it’s not a healthy thing that I can’t. Most likely it was the trauma I suffered as a child that had me crying buckets until there just weren’t any more tears in me. I agree with your attitude about crying now, and believe your mother’s advice to be very wise. This is strong writing that has me thinking much about the subject.

It’s so much more of a powerful expression this way, in my opinion. It means that if you cry it actually means something. Such a beautiful expression of that.

Beautiful. It’s wonderful to have “control”. Not just in whether or not to cry.

I don’t cry many times. My poetry is my emotional release. But the last time I cried is when I lost my dog. When me and my wife got his nose print I just lost it. Don’t remember the last time I cried before then.

Great ink.

Powerfully penned, Fia. Into the book it belongs! This is an incredible write my friend, love the layers. Excellent work. Appreciate you.

Oh lordy…have you seen the movie The Holiday? I’m the Jude Law character…a weeper! Happy, sad, excited, confused…I’m a soggy mess. This is an interesting view though, seen from someone else’s perspective. Very nice!
