Beyond

" 'The bird that would soar above the level plain of tradition and prejudice must have strong wings. It is a sad spectacle to see the weaklings bruised, exhausted, flutering back to earth.' " -The Awakening

Silence Speaks Many Volumes

a mind that believes only loud pride means love
is a narrow mind.

why must you know my interests
in order for them to be legitimate?

why can't i sit
smirking at the beauty of words
glowing with admiration
and desire

and you be unaware?

just because i adore something
and do not boast in loud, harsh words
does not mean, there is no love for it.

i can embrace interest
without you watching my arms
flex around what i adore.

i can love quietly.
i can glow humbly.
