Hope
It has rained for days. Are the gods displeased? Oh let this be the reign to purge the diseased.

Winter's Grey
Winter’s grey on a winter’s day,
I shot a man in a winter’s fray.
He’s buried now at my winter stay,
Beneath the children in winter’s play.

I mean, don’t get me wrong, I’m not ugly. I’m a fairly good looking person. But it does get a bit old when people like your personality but drool at the “cuties” and “hunks” that walk by. And I’m left feeling as though I lack some physical quality.

xeno
dictionaryofobscuresorrows:
n. the smallest measurable unit of human connection, typically exchanged between passing strangers—a flirtatious glance, a sympathetic nod, a shared laugh about some odd coincidence—moments that are fleeting and random but still contain powerful emotional nutrients that can alleviate the symptoms of feeling alone.
Just had this.
