Freedom in emptiness



To walk unnoticed through the snow-veiled streets
just a grey track-mark among the snow flakes

to forever burn this image into the eyes
and to not be recognized ever again


...this is called joy


to never again care
and let this street become the final resting place

to let this greyness perpetuate through the mind
and into the feelings


..colorlessness


to never be saturated by it
and ever make space for more

till its all monochromatic
till there is nothing left to give up


..but there is always something


to get drained of color
desecrating all that was once held dear

to tear through the old scarred seams
and dissolve in this winter day


..that is true loyalty


to completely and permanently share the moment
with emptiness, tranquil and absolute

to welcome the oblivion
that was so hard-suffered for


..thus comes my ultimate freedom

Mad props. Your writing is an inspiration in itself. This is a very well deserved reward.
 
Thank you so much!

I can't describe how good it makes me feel to know that you like my writing and more importantly - that it Inspires you!! This is undoubtedly the highest mark I could ever hope for. Coversely - your guys' work and the entire bluelight forums was and always will be an undepletable source of inspiration for me. English isn't my first language and bluelight words forum was definitely THE place that introduced me to the beauty and expressive potential of english language!!!

You guys are awesome!
