Bettanu: Autumnbound
September creeps in As the summer’s wearing thin A new season’s found Early comes the dark As I wander through the park Leaves upon the ground Watch the hands of time As they ring the bells that chime We are autumnbound - SMP 🧡🍂

I write to you, of you, not because our souls are intertwined, neither because you're mine or I'm yours, but because I do not know of any other audience, for these thoughts, in the form of mere words, for this fragmented existence, which reveals through the cracks of past experiences, to lose itself in the captivating beauty, that is yourself.

I love this. We have nothing to prove to anyone but ourselves, and I do not give ear or care to post my happy moment portraits on Fakebook & pretend everything is always peachy.
All best.
Travel and tell no one. Live a true love story and tell no one. Live happily and tell no one. People ruin beautiful things.
Khalil Gibran
Amen. Others with show how much they value you by their willingness to help when everything is not so easy.
I instantly fell in love with Taylor Swift's song 'Anti-Hero.'
It is rare to find any new music with intelligent, quality lyrics, and it tells the story! Beautiful Poetry!
MIDNIGHTS – OCTOBER 21, 2022
It’s a momentary glimmer of distraction. The tiniest notion of reminiscent thought that wanders off into wondering, the spark that lights a tinderbox of fixation. And now it is irreversible. The flame has caught. You’re wide awake.
Maybe it’s that one urgent question you meant to ask someone years ago but didn’t. Someone that slipped through the cracks in your history, and they’re are too far gone now anyway. All the ghost ships that have sailed and sailed away, but at this hour, they’ve anchored in your harbor. They sit with flags waving, bright and beautiful. And it’s almost like it’s real.
We lie awake in love and in fear and in turmoll and in tears. We stare at walls and drink until they speak back. We twist in our self-made cages and pray that we aren’t — right this minute — about to make some fateful life-altering mistake. This is a collection of music written in the middle of the night, a journey through terrors and sweet dreams. The floors we pace and the demons we face. For all of us who have tossed and turned and decided to keep the lanterns lit and go searching. Hoping that just maybe, when the clock strikes twelve… we’ll meet ourselves.
