It’s just awful that we live in weird time zones. They’re all great, though, Nika. Lovely as always.

so foetalwrites and I were talking about love and our poems http://soulpensieve.tumblr.com/post/6224171988/girls-hate-nice-guysand http://foetalwrites.tumblr.com/post/6231829550 and somehow we got a collab out of it, so we thought we'd share it. enjoy.

When love becomes mechanized, and every action simply cardboard, there is little life to this feeling, and its purity is almost tarnished by our muddy, human hands.

but isn't tarnished, torn and tattered exactly what love is supposed to be? Love by nature is imperfect constantly growing, ever evolving. mechanized maybe, boring, sure. but too much love, boring, tattered and steady will always be better than not enough love

Of course, I'm not saying that lovelessness is better. That love should be contained, chained up under the oceans. I'm merely saying that humans, in all our grand ambitions, have treated love with less respect than we really ought to. We have stopped paying attention to the people who matter, and instead chase targets, images of ourselves that are indestructible. Love should be a healing feeling, that seeps through our bones on lonely winter nights. Love should be gentle, love should be bold. But never should we perform love. For it more than that.
