Until the Oranges Arrive

Dear Heart, 

Life gets busy at times, but I believe that what you love the most, you make time for. I am glad to know that I always manage to write to you about my days, no matter how enervated I feel after a long, rough day. 

I don't mean this as an indirect reproach, but what is vital to the heart, we keep dear to us, even when we have an extremely busy schedule or just aren't in the mood to talk. But priorities differ from individual to individual. 

Thinking about you today, beneath a sunny October sky and its shifting shades, it is good to remember that I do not forget to write to you. Besides, how can I leave something that brings me comfort: writing, and you. 

The oranges will be here soon, and my heart yearns to see you here, too, for you are to me what an orange is to a person in winter.    

Until then, I shall keep a little warmth aside for you, the way October keeps its last oranges.

~Zara M.

Under Sapphire Skies, We Were Infinite

The night before today, I encountered a fantasy about us: you and me, under the sapphire moonlight, tiny, vivid, glossy stars, a sight of the ocean with a light wind, soothing sand under our feet, my fingers tightened into yours, eyes displaying each other's reflection, tousled hair, uneasy breath, so merging into one another's souls as if making us one; we were weaving an endless memory of being one. Wind is singing our song of love; the universe is witnessing us being trove of love and the devotion and tenderness we are radiating, both to the world and to each other's souls. The ocean, with its dark energy, is astonishingly dancing with its waves to make our moment of being one feel whole; the night sky is unfolding its beautiful colours to shape an idyllic moment of happiness, and we are delightedly holding each other's image while pushing the pressures of the world to their limits, admiring each other to the utmost. ~ Zara

Fragments from The Private Cosmos III

You existed in me longer than you ever did beside me. As his image appears, something inside me ignites; the world seems to pause, like moonlight suddenly spilling over the earth, soft and silver, and everything grows still just to witness his rare breath. Few images on this earth are rare enough to spill silver into the soul, and yours is the one that lingers in mine. Loneliness is not empty; it is filled with you. ~ Zara M.

Where Confessions Never Bloomed

 Dear Heart,  My silences have always stifled my emotions. I have always restrained what my heart has felt; my hesitant heart has made me loosen the grip over several of my desires. On this day, when I encounter numerous layers of thoughts where our souls drift toward separate tides, I recall how joyous I have felt with you and how strongly I have remained gripped to your soul all along. A voice that questions its own echo seldom dares to become a confession. It leaves its deepest concerns in silence, and stillness, believe me, has a way of distorting everything. ~Zara M.
