Just another V-Day post

A clichéd Valentine's day post..because every blog needs one...R.O.R.D. truly

Valentine’s is just about coming our way. Another week and the day will be upon us. I feel a myriad of things about this event. I have never been one that fancied the concept of a singular day for love to be met out. People rushing to buy gifts and do things they don’t normally do or forgot, simply to avoid the repercussions of doing nothing. I shiver at the thought of that angry man or woman who…

A requirement for space

It's okay to be alone sometimes. I'm going to try to learn how to accept this..R.O.R.D. truly

I’ve always wanted to be around people and almost always detest being alone. Somehow a part of me,that I have no control of, craves space and distance from everything. Most people that are close to me do not like the fact that I try to keep them at arms length. I am working on this. Today, however, I think and consciously know that I might be encroaching on a particular person’s space. I don’t…

My odd not so little ramble post

I have nothing I wish to share my opinion on today. A ramble post is all I have to offer.

Today has just been a long day and I don’t feel like writing. Naturally, I’m going to write about that. It feels like I’m in a state of vibration. Except, it’s not on the outside. My brain is vibrating against my skull and for some reason it’s oddly comforting. It’s not a headache; nor is it a migraine. It’s something else. It’s very odd frankly speaking. A lot of things have been awfully odd…

(Ass)umptions..Assumptions..(Part I)

Change is the only constant and yet we speculate it's very existence.Let's speculate some more

They say people never change. If they’re bad apples, they will continue to be that. If they’re a “goody two shoes”, that’s all they’ll ever be. I really don’t understand where they draw this conclusion from. Most young pop stars start out all goody, good, good and then come out with albums that trade that image with a “bad”, sexy one. I have two trains on this subject. One being, that the…

The Commitment Quandary

Everyone has something they can't commit to..especially writers. From R.O.R.D. truly.

I have commitment issues. Not with people. Well, sometimes with people but mostly with plans. As a self proclaimed obsessionist, I pride myself in lists and pre-organization. The things I believe my sanity relies on. I’m wonderful at bringing order to chaos. I can set a path, even go half the course. That’s when things get tricky though. Somewhere along the perfectly set plan, I start losing…

The Cave(wo)man in you and me

Speculating the why's on hulking out...from R.O.R.D truly.

A conversation that went awry recently, brought me to the conclusion that we are instinctual beings. We’ve always been taught that we are some kind of animals. We call people that love to party, party animals. Those that are brutal and violent, just animals. Since we do compare ourselves so often to beasts of secondary intelligence, does that induce a state of mind that perpetuates animalistic…

What the hell do I wear?

The closet dilemma and our perpetual struggle with what to wear...from R.O.R.D. Truly

I went for a play today. Knowing I was supposed to go out, set my brain in to overdrive and not the good kind. It decided that the night before would be one, where I got zero sleep or at least enough, to feel at par with my zombie breathren. It almost feels like it’s self-sabotage! Many YouTube videos, bargaining repeated ten minute sleep extensions and  multiple snoozes later…there I was finally…

Finding me? NO!

To finding yourself or not... that is the question..from R.O.R.D truly..existential et al.

How many times have we heard the famous, “Just be yourself…I’m sure they’ll adore you,” line? We have songs about it. Poetry, movies…all depicting the importance of being yourself. What does it really mean though? How do you know what to be? How does being yourself work? Does such a thing even exist? Most people, search out paths that lead them, to knowing their true selves. They search for…

On Acceptance and Help

Look at us go, questioning acceptance and accepting help. ....from R.O.R.D truly.

Why do we make things difficult? Why can’t we just calm down and accept? Someone tried helping me today. My natural reaction to it, unnaturally, was to show my annoyance. Somehow, I’ve always felt like I needed to do things myself. That if someone else helped, I  didn’t deserve it. I’m not ungrateful, just unaccustomed. It’s not like I haven’t had people to help me. Good family, good friends. No…

Overwhelmingly bored

We're a little bored.. BORED... BOREDD....from R.O.R.D truly.

Have you ever just woken up, started your day and then come to a complete stand still? Not because of external factors, just because you were…undeniably bored. Bored of how things are. Of what you didn’t have to do. Of who you didn’t have to be. Bored of the absence of meaning. Just bored. How long does it take for something to become mundane, before you want to destroy it completely? Not very…

The Poisoned Quote

Poisonous quotes that tell you what we do to ourselves and others on #ThisweekonRORD #poisonweek

Holding on to anger is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die. – Gautama Buddha This is something, I’m ridiculously guilty of. Sometimes, I let the anger seep into the very recesses of my soul and guard it like a three headed beast, lest someone try and steal or put out my anger. It has turned me into the poison that I detest and for those hours, I am everything I hate. It’s…

Beautifully Battered

To kick off #ThisweekonRORD , here's Beautifully Battered. #VerbalPoison #RORD #poetry

You may sting, slash, gut and twist; With sour words and not so empty threats And I’ll shut up and take it all in. Till I go up in flames, leaving you to rot in shame, at the vanity of your so called pain. -A There are many kinds and strains of poison, or so I’ve learnt. Some attack the heart, some break down the mind. Others destroy the soul with its vulgar impositions and then there are some…

Take Two.

Introducing #ThisweekonRORD. We'll be posting themed poems, articles and quotes.(nervous Yay!)

So, I’m hardly committed to posting on here (as much as I would love to, the procrastinator in me wins one too many times) and I’m trying, desperately, to pull up my socks up and be the blogger I ought to be. I figured what better way to do that, than Themes. Every week, I’m going to come up with a theme to work with. Posting poems, articles and quotes to go with it. The monotony is what keeps me…

So here’s to a new domain and hopefully, a renewed…

Nothing

My happy places doesn't mind me being nothing so I've escaped to it again.

Every time I sit down to write, I become someone new. Each new poem brings a new part of me to light and every time I write one of my little vents, I lose a part of me. I remember being told that energy is never lost, it simply transforms into something else. Each time I write, I lose energy and then, gain some. I’ve played many roles. The liar, the lover, the deserter, a murderer and so many…

“And suddenly I become a part of your past I'm becoming the part that don't last I'm losing you and its effortless Without a sound we lose sight of the ground In the throw around Never thought that you wanted to bring it down I won't let it go down till we torch it ourselves”
