hi

To Jogchem 		hi Daylight Jogchem, 14 Jan 2024 02:44
you made it!

To Farfrost 		Random thoughts Farfrost, 24 Dec 2023 13:46
Some people, when you are not communicating with them in person, you repeatedly recall negative memories about them, resulting in a kind of distance-driven hatred. But when you actually get in touch with them, they're not that evil.

I've had two relationships like this in recent years.I still don't know why this happened. Every time I think about our relationship when I'm alone, I feel ridiculous. But when I'm with them, I want to be nice. Maybe I'm just not disappointed enough.

''A true relationship is two unperfect people refusing to give up on each other''

To Jogchem 		Spot on! Jogchem, 14 Jan 2024 02:45
thanks

To Jogchem 		this makes me think... Jogchem, 14 Jan 2024 02:47
We don't just have a relationship with one another, but also with the imaginary versions of the other, inside our heads.

To Cozyowl 		differentplant.here Cozyowl, 23 Dec 2023 23:07
its interesting how different this is from the dutch version which just has two lines. It roughly states:
a plant is what it is
until it is until it is nothing

To Quotation 		Quotation, 24 Dec 2023 06:59

''Vive la difference !''

To Jogchem 		I forgot Jogchem, 14 Jan 2024 03:39
I wanted to write a poem on the Dutch side too. Never got round to it. Now I'm not so sure about the English poem. What do you think?

To Cozyowl 		I love it Cozyowl, 14 Jan 2024 04:12
I especially enjoy the metre/cadence. It is simple but very effective and is something with which I think some poets struggle.
I also really like the stanza:
''You have no control,
your words can't convey
my spirit and soul,
to file it away.''
I think it pictures the essence of feeling trapped in and breaking free of the words of others.
I also like the last two lines
''Eyes open wide,
and you're aware of me''
I debated exactly what they meant. I think the comma is important in their interpretation.

To Nobody 		thanks! Nobody, 25 Jan 2024 04:27
I think you got it, even more than I did, reading it back after all this time. I'll tweak it at some point. Thanks for your perspective!

To Cozyowl 		. Cozyowl, 14 Jan 2024 04:14
It has a very different tone and affect than the other. But a very welcome difference.

To Cozyowl 		no one else is herebat.here Cozyowl, 23 Dec 2023 23:00
really makes you think about the reality of our perception

To Quotation 		Quotation, 24 Dec 2023 07:01

''Life is based on perception. Perception is based on opinion. Opinion is based on thought. Thought comes from the mind. Change your mind, change your life''

''Normal people don't exist. Don't you know, normal is just the average between all the weird people in the world and all the boring people in the world''

To Quotation 		Quotation, 24 Dec 2023 07:03

''Sometimes I pretend to be normal. But it gets boring. So I go back to being me''

To Quotation 		Quotation, 22 Dec 2023 04:23

''Everybody knows my smile, but nobodyhere knows how I feel.
Everybody knows what I say, but nobodyhere knows what I think.
Everybody knows what I write, but nobodyhere sees my tears.
Everyone thinks they know me, but nobodyhere does really know me.''

i find this sorta inspiring?

To Quotation 		Quotation, 20 Dec 2023 05:59

''You can find inspiration everywhere once you start to notice what's around you''

To Jogchem 		that's great! Jogchem, 14 Jan 2024 03:41
at the time it didn't feel very inspiring.

To Etcetera 		Where do you feel your anxiety Etcetera, 19 Dec 2023 15:31
i feel it in my shoulders

To Quotation 		Quotation, 20 Dec 2023 05:50

''Living with anxiety is fighting unknown demons daily''

To Cozyowl 		. Cozyowl, 23 Dec 2023 23:19
it aches in my stomach and tenses in my shoulders
it picks at my hands and stiffens my neck
as it rattles around in my brain confusing everything
