#internal peace

[siyaahii]

And you know that I'd swing with you for the fences, sit with you in the trenches. Give you my wild, give you a child. Give you the silence that only comes when two people understand each other. Family that I chose, now that I see your brother as my brother. Is it enough? -Peace, folklore[x]

[kamala-laxman]

One can not reflect in streaming water. Only those who know internal peace can give it to others.     Lao Tzu

Silence.

I went looking for some silence. I went and I found none, For all around me there was laughter, singing, enjoyment, playing, Dancing, rejoicing, jubilation, fun, And all of these were in my head as well as on the outside. I went looking for some silence. I went away from where there was noise, And I brought the noise with me. Without the outer noise, The inner noise reigned free, And inside my head was crying, shouting, wailing, moaning, Weeping, hurting, screaming, groaning, And I ran to where I heard the same from you, And the noise . . . Stopped. I went looking for silence, And I found none. I went looking for you, And I found peace.

No quieras quitarme mi paz.

No me exijas confianza el primer mes, ni el primer año, ni a tu tiempo, las personas que más amé y donde la tenía puesta fueron motivo del mayor dolor que experimenté y dejaron un hueco tan grande que tardé kilometros en cerrar, si es que en algún momento realmente logré cerrarlo. Por tanto nueva persona, lo único que te pido a cambio de tenernos en esta vida, y vaya uno a saber si en otras, es no exigirme, es dejarme ser, es saber que tengo mis tiempos y que suelen ser lentos, que no suelo funcionar con el mismo manual que la mayoría, y que probablemente te cueste entender... pero si lográs hacerlo te regalo la mayor de mis posesiones, mi amor y mi tiempo.

-no quieras quitarme la paz con la que me muevo, porque a mayor sea el ruido que hacés, más lejos me posiciono en tu vida-
