Night Thoughts #098

To have someone
understand your mind
is a different kind
of intimacy.

social norm

We live in a time,
when it’s more socially acceptable
for a child to be on amphetamines,
than it is for an adult to smoke pot.

the look

when he looks at you
from across a crowded room

filled spaces while conversing.


communicating between a sea of faces,

a glance turned into a gaze

fixed upon you,

noise and chatter fade away...

pulled in, you’re drawn to him.

unable to shield his eyes,

he claims you with
his body language. 

disclosing, exposing,
undressing your mind...

mind of an introvert

There are times
when I crave space
and I don’t contact anyone.
People who don’t know me
take it personally.
So do I narrate my feelings
to each and every one,
do I become what people expect of me,
or do I be me?

I think I’m going to be me.

give more

Yet we still call ourselves human
when there is barely any humanity left.
We are tragically destructive
when all we need,
all this world needs,
is more loving.

rapacity

It’s terribly sad how we go to war against each other
even though we are on the same planet,
live under the same stars,
wake up to the same sun
and the sleep to the same moon.

We are selfish and greedy human beings,
always wanting more,
and having that need
to constantly be superior than others.

We often forget that we are little and small
in comparison to the rest of this universe...

art of entrapment

I could seduce you with my body...

I'm sure I'd catch your eye.

Instead, I'll seduce you with my words,

with phrases so erotic,

that you’d rather fuck my mind.
