Detachment
Living freely in a body estranged from the mind, the couth of a lovely soul weakens, wearing thin of its profoundness; attributed one of a kind.
Exploited for its resistance, the soul wanders in search of its true calling, a vessel of hope to be determined.
Here lies the docility of the soul along with the outer body, needless to attach itself, independent of its purpose.
Allowing the mind to align, factors a balance of control between the turbulence of the soul’s mental capacity and its bodily composition.
The disposition of mind and inner body reconcile given time to manage and navigate the depths of a soul, lacking attachment to the outer body.
A sappy experience uncovered by the soul, absorbing the feats of the world, remaining invulnerable to the turbulence caused by disorder.
A mania that grows stronger, collapses, forcing the mind to take over the body, leaving the soul defeated; hollowed in chaos.
Did You Know? [Sentiments]
Did you know?
Did you know that—
I yearn for your devoted attention,
an impromptu love drenched in golden teardrops from the stars above.
Did you know that—
You are the lingering passion that conceptualizes the world of my existence,
an enticing presence that duals the fire set to my raging spirit.
Did you know?
Did you know that—
The serendipity I’ve become acquainted with keeps me afloat, you are the
rhythm to my flow, the remedy to my pain; I deem you as my greatest asset—
my sunshine in the presence of rain.
Did you know?
Did you know that—
My grace for you is everlasting; the adoration I harbor for you in this
fashion may not be tarnished or ravaged. It would be the world’s greatest
travesty if my keenness for you diminished for a lifetime.
