When a bird falls in love with a fish — where will they live?🤓
- looking back as you walk away. - expecting them to lead somewhere. - caring what is on the other side. -holding them open for people who left. - allowing an unreciprocated bond to drain your energy. - expecting a confessions from the silence. - needing an explanation. - tying your sanity… (edited) read more
Some of us...when we're broken, respond worse than others. It's like cracking an egg into a pan and the yolk breaking too. We think we've been ruined because we don't look as good as everyone else... But we still make a pretty fricken good egg sandwich, with the proper bread and condiment (self… read more

I have solar-powered confidence. I have a battery-operated smile. My hobbies include editing my life story, hiding behind metaphors, and trying to convince my shadow that I'm someone worth following.
Don’t be a writer, don’t be an artist, don’t be a musician— not because it’s hard, but because it asks you to imagine what you can never fully explain. We carry feelings too vast for language, yet we polish them into words, hide them carefully inside metaphors, until the truth looks beautiful but… read more
Today is my birthday and I put myself in a tornado of emotions to see if I could handle all of them....turns out ..I have handled worse and this is nothing compared to that . I took out my diary and started writing down the story I started a month ago .. and it gradually progresses . The metaphors… read more

In Freudian psychology, the concept of the Impulse Drive could be described as your soul. In neuroscience they call it The Limbic System. Souls are fungible and not linked to identity, that is a huge concept in spirituality if im not mistaken. The idea that we all experience the same soul at our… read more
Say I’m so prolific with my focus Never notice the woe In these moments feeling broken Squeeze the disease Mistaken ease So many needs I’m never showing Look at me Oh how I bleed Go through the motions But this is coasting Say it’s fire that I’m holding Scald now I’m roasting… read more
The words sit stuck So tired of their redundant nature Tired of my repetitive need to pick scabs Until they bleed and I have the exposed nerve To call it healing But my art is the only way I know How to process feeling Watch me peeling Appealing Im never scared of making ugly art… read more
A lot of people put a significant amount of work into creating the art that this is. There are so many words needed to express the emotions and scenarios depicted here. The hopes that broken down so plainly anyone could understand the metaphors that change could occur. The expression squish is sure… read more
(from "Ten Crows and Other Fallen Musings of a Devil" currently unreleased book of poetry that revolves around metaphors of Heaven and Hell tropes.) Down here? Everything repeats.

Headlights race towards the corner of the dining room And half illuminate a face before they disappear You breathe in forty years of failing to describe a feeling I breathe out smoke against a window Trace the letters in your name Our letters sound the same Full of all our changing That isn't… read more
Living with ADHD, Autism, Anxiety, and BPD isn’t a small thing — it’s a marathon with invisible shoelaces, four coaches yelling different instructions, and a finish line that keeps shifting every time I get close. But that’s not the whole story. Because beneath the chaos, there are strengths that… read more










Hi, I felt this was the best # to post because during these... 2, maybe 3 months (I'm not good with time) of graduating from Arclabs Welding, I FINALLY found a job I think I will be really happy in. Will it be forever? Probably not. Am I keeping my options open still? Absolutely. But I spent… (edited) read more

Does anyone here wear extremely bright colors, have fluffy hair, and speak in metaphors and riddles (I can’t find anyone my type)

Describe yourself... BUT you can ONLY use movie characters as metaphors. ☺️🙏🏾 Good luck 💞
It’s strange how comfortable some corners of anime culture have become with eroticizing adolescence. So many popular shows revolve around teenage girls (uniformed, soft-spoken, impossibly shaped) and this gets sold as harmless “style.” But it isn’t just style; it’s a marketing formula built to feed… read more

Magnificent mess mystic mind melancolic muse manic metaphors magnifying moods meticulously. (edited)
You spoke of smiles stitched with shame, of pain hidden in the rain, as if metaphors could make me forget the lies. As if your wounds gave you the right to wound me. You said the mask is part of you. Maybe it is. Maybe you’ve worn it so long, you forgot there was ever a face beneath it. But that’s… (edited) read more
I'm fascinated by English expressions, phrase, idioms sometimes. What does 'Toss the salt' mean? I googled but it's difficult to understand so far. In Japan, tossing the salt is associated with purification, protection from evil, and bringing good fortune. It literally expresses these actions… read more
Is there such a thing as public good? That's all I'm asking. I mean, is your good the same as my good? I doubt that seriously. So, if we do not agree on a common sense of good, then how can there be any larger public good? What about some homeless person who sleeps on a heat grating down the… read more
What is the metaphors for finding a feather? Do the colors patterns matter? I’ve only found a couple recently and it’s been since I was a kid to have bothered noticing. Is it illegal to collect them? Comments appreciated

“If you could associate a word with your lover, what would it be without explaining it?”

(TLDR summary in the comments) Human cognition and communication can function perfectly well on the level of possibilities, associations, and imaginative speculation. This is the realm of brainstorming, exploration, and open-ended conversation. We can relate ideas, create metaphors, higher… (edited) read more
to my almost, until now, i wonder...what our lives could have been if we got there. if we decided to fight every battle along our way while holding each others’ hand. if we had the courage to flip the next page and see if we could stay together until the last one. we weren’t a perfect fit. our… read more
The chandelier did not shatter all at once. It began with a single shiver—like a breath drawn before confession. Elian Moreau felt it, the way only a man stitched to silence and sound could feel the invisible. A tremor in the air as his fingers hovered above the ivory keys. The opera house was… read more

I have always been a very visual learner and especially with metaphors trying to make sense of my life and personality through that helps alot. One of my favorite questions to ask people is if you were an animal what would you be based on your personality and your spirit. That can really tell you… read more
I just love this piece so much. The details, the texture, the meanings and metaphors. All so good lol (edited)

I hear next to no one speak about 86 but in my opinion it's one of the best anime ever created. The soundtrack, the story, the visual metaphors subtly inserted into scenes, the animation. It's a masterpiece in my eyes and belongs on my top 3

I am no writer, love. Not at this point in my life. I can't think of metaphors or beautiful lines like before - maybe I can't get over that one poem I couldn't write to you which was left unfinished or maybe it's because this poem that we both are weaving is more than enough to satisfy my ink and… read more

Astrology revolves around cycles of planets and their alignments. Can these cycles be seen as metaphors for larger philosophical ideas about change, growth, and the interconnectedness of everything?
>“The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me, because the Lord has anointed me to bring good news to the afflicted; He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to captives and freedom to prisoners.”—Isaiah 61:1 This line can be explored as a reminder that affliction does not erase… (edited) read more
