    Episode 82: Poetry Reading

    The scent of rain has always been dear to me; ๐–ฒ๐—ˆ ๐—‚๐—Œ solitude, which by so wide a range Gives me a glimpse of my inner horizons. Here, quite ashore, staring at the endless void And beyond the bounds of mundane fantasy, I bare my being of the burden of conscience, Take a wrinkle in time to get along wi' the wild, To get alone for a while with the churlish child As the leaves of dread and all of grief fade With the cleansing return of innocence. The dusk in my eyes was once a turbid river Of sparkling dreams, in the hollow of which Twinkl'd candor like crystal coins underwater. I seize a pink of release in the death of doubt; And lo! it takes so little a thing For my all to thaw in awe At what gravity is ailing to tame. I catch a sense of ease in the depth of though; And oh! it takes so slight a thrill For all my sight to fall afright At what my soul is failing to name. Like a blooming in slow process Thorough in the art of softly unfolding From the drying ruins of what used to be, I lay the wilting grace of yesterday's flowers Down into the garden of oblivious blossoms. And as the drifting self dwells lost In the fizzing and marvel of hearing The howling breeze through the foliage; I, I compare my silence to the sigh of Nature, To that voice, the suave tunes of which Murmur in the mirth of memory The remembrance of olden joys, The obsolete seasons, the generous ones, The careless spectre of lively youth all clad in her garment of glaring noise. Thus I see my thinking sink in the Immensity, And tender is the tide in this sea of wonder! โ€” ๐– ๐—Œ๐—Œ๐—‚๐—๐–บ, ๐‘‡๐’‰๐‘’ ๐‘…๐‘’๐‘ก๐‘ข๐‘Ÿ๐‘› ๐‘œ๐‘“ ๐ผ๐‘›๐‘›๐‘œ๐‘๐‘’๐‘›๐‘๐‘’ ๐–จ๐—‡๐—Œ๐—‰๐—‚๐—‹๐–พ๐–ฝ ๐–ฟ๐—‹๐—ˆ๐—† ๐–ฆ๐—‚๐–บ๐–ผ๐—ˆ๐—†๐—ˆ ๐–ซ๐–พ๐—ˆ๐—‰๐–บ๐—‹๐–ฝ๐—‚'๐—Œ ๐ฟ'๐ผ๐‘›๐‘“๐‘–๐‘›๐‘–๐‘ก๐‘œ โ€“ 1819 โ€“ Written by https://www.threads.com/@handofdust101 This is a public episode.

    Episode 81: Morning found poetry in you...

    ...before the day asked anything of you. You were laying there in that quiet hour when the world still belongs to itself, shoulders loose, sleep still resting in the corners of your eyes, a smile beginning to form like you hadnโ€™t quite decided whether the day deserved it. And I noticed the way morning seemed to gather around you. Not because you tried to be seen. You didnโ€™t. That was the thing. There was something steady about you, the kind of strength that doesnโ€™t perform, that doesnโ€™t need the room to know itโ€™s there. It lived in the way you stretched slowly, in the calm weight of your presence, in the quiet certainty of a man who has nothing to prove. Your eyes were softer than I expected. Dawnlight caught in them like it had found a place it wanted to stay. And when you smiled, it wasnโ€™t polished or careful. It was crooked. Warm. A little tired. Human. The kind of smile that makes a woman feel suddenly aware of how close she is to heaven. Morning slid through the window and touched the edge of your face, your jaw, the lines time and living had written into you. It made everything about you look honest. No armor yet. Just you. I donโ€™t think you knew how beautiful you were in that moment. Not the loud kind of beauty people chase. Something quieter. The kind that makes the air feel heavier, makes a woman pause and watch longer than she meant to. Morning found poetry in you. And laying there beside you, pretending not to stare, I realized something that ached a little. Some men carry whole sunrises in them without ever knowing it.

    Episode 80: Lost in You

    When youโ€™re near, the world falls quietโ€” like every sound bends toward your name, and even the air forgets to move unless itโ€™s to carry your breath to me. I have run from things I couldnโ€™t face, but never from you. Your eyes find me, root me to the earth, make stillness feel like truth. Each word you speak pours through me, turning fear into something tender. In your arms, the past dissolvesโ€” the edges of my life blur and fade, until there is only now, only your heartbeat teaching mine to follow. You spin me into orbit, a star surrendered to its gravity. Your touch leaves trails of memory, and your kiss burns through reasonโ€” beautiful, reckless, infinite. I am lost, and I donโ€™t want saving. Drowning feels like flying here, where every breath is borrowed from you. If love is a storm, let it tear through me; if love is ruin, let me burn clean. I give myself over, body and soul, to the perfect undoing of your name. Your scent lingers after the silenceโ€” a prayer whispered into the dark. You move, and time bends around you. I try to look away, but the world turns back to find your face. You are my undoing, my calm, my windโ€” the ache I crave, the cure I fear. In the hollow of your arms, I remember what it means to feel infinite. You stitch light into my scars, teach brokenness how to shine. If this love is wrong, then let it be endless. Iโ€™d rather lose myself completely than stand whole without you. See me fallingโ€” heart first, breathless, undone. If this dream is all I have, donโ€™t wake me. Let the dawn wait outside a little longer. For in every reflection, I find your soul; in every heartbeat, I return to the quiet fire where Iโ€™m forever lost in you.
