The other night I stayed up listening to transatlanticism, front to back for the first time in years. I appreciated it for what it truly is in all its glory. 16-year-old me, listening to it for the first time, couldn't resonate to what it really stresses and to the story that is narrated.

No other piece of art has talked of love in such ways. Of the messy face of love, of the chaotic and painful side of it. Of the love that roots itself deep into us with no plan of ever leaving.

Beginnings. Expectations. Attempting and hoping for the impossible. Attachment. Resistance. Adoration. Uncertainty. Memories creeping in. Fading. Doubting. Downfall. Recollection. Repetition. Blight. Anxiety. Stagnation. Lack of courage. Silence. Heartbreak. Let down. Confessions. Honesty. Emptiness. Distance. Longing. Complexity. Desperation. Familiarity. Candid moments. Realization. Promises. Wilting. Drowning in endless blue. Numbing. Exploration. Sweetness. Purity. Enthusiasm. Clumsiness. Words overdue. Transparency. Separation. Catharsis. Endings.

I guess everything feels more intense when it is 3am.

Today's little Welsh word is "am". It hasn't got one English equivalent, but always seems to be used around the topic of time. The most useful way is probably when you're making appointments at a time :"Am faint o'r gloch" is "at what time?". #iglc #learningwelsh #dysgucymraeg #cymraeg #morewelsh #littlewords #languagelearning #langblr #languagechallenge

You left

and the seasons kept changing

In the spring the flowers bloomed,

the colors became vibrant,

my heart kept pumping blood

and my chest rising and falling from the oxygen

The flowers danced with the wind in the summer time

every evening

the sun kept falling

and the moon would rise

the oceans ebbed and flowed

the rivers changed

It's autumn and the trees are wilting

it hasn't rained yet

sooner or later it will

and it will be enough to cleanse me from every bit of you that still lingers

You left

but the world went on

(and eventually so did I ) .

[poemsbysaudade]

Wrap your head around the fact that you have to move on and stop wasting your time on that person. You deserve better and that "better" is out there waiting for you. It's going to be hard at first but trust me, in the end you will come to realize you did what was best for you. The universe has a plan for all of us, everything is working in your favor and in the end it's going to be just fine. Let the good times roll.

Excerpt from a journal entry

[poemsbysaudade]

Maybe our hearts were never meant to settle

they've always been after some kind of madness

Running with the wind, the stars, the ocean

that's the honey in our tea;

the uncertainty of tomorrow

the eager to leave it all behind

[poemsbysaudade]

I'll keep on writing about you

til my hands bleed from the pressure

til i can no longer feel them

Til i run out of paper,

out of ink,

out of words.

[poemsbysaudade]

I was grieving the death of our flower garden long before it happened

Every night I'd cry over our dried out roses

hoping it would save them

til one moonless night

they cried for me in pity

for it wasn't all my fault

you were the one

who had stopped watering them
