A Sense of Pride

it hurts my pride. i can't deny. to accept. that i am nothing. without you.
without you. my life has a wandering purpose. no meaning.

what pride. what purpose. you were the one who gave it to me. first.
its quite difficult. to lay it down. this sense of i.

i am someone. worthy of something. i have a plan for i.
i know whats good for i. i know what i stands for.

i knows. i is needed. i is loved. i resolves emptiness.
how does it know. needed by who. loved for what.
filling up whose space.

We must be willing to let go of the life we have planned,
so as to have the life that is waiting for us.
~ E. M. Forster

Shared Shared

If we are together.
This moment is precious to me.
It may not be for you,
but if it is,
then this is a shared moment.
And it is doubly precious to me.
It may not be for you,
but if it is,
then this is a shared moment,
shared.
And it is terribly precious to me.
And it means that we can be
together for some more.

The knowledge of two leaves

all knowledge is a form of generalisation. an escape from reality.
where even two leaves, from the same branch, aren't the same.

to know is to disregard, so that we don't have to bother about it again.
known, filed, categorised, documented and locked aside. pseudo security.
a cushion of comfort, against a chaotic, mutating, furious universe.

real reality may be too simple, for our complicated world-view.
not even worth the effort of knowing. allowing no scope for human drama.

knowledge is the end to all quests. to arrive at and rest.
judgment proclaimed and consensus dispatched.
so that it may be declared, to all the generations of mankind to come.
we have been there, we already know it.
so, you don't have to.
