School.

I wrote this when I was in high school, quite a while ago. I was going through my old school books when I found it on some lined paper in my maths book, surrounded by pen-drawn intertwining flowers. The writing style isn't amazing, but what can I say, once a dreamer always a dreamer.

I let my head tip back,
And I close my eyes in silence.
I breathe the thick air of the bustling class room.
I hear the drone of the teacher,
the chattering of students,
the clashing of church bells.
I let it fade.
Until I breathe the essence of the forest, it's wild flowers and dew drops.
Until I hear the song of birds,
the wind caressing the trees, the hum of indifferent life.
This is where I long to be,
but I cannot.
For the human race has a hunger and expectation for success.
Fast, greedy, ignorant.
This realisation terminates my escape and tears me back to reality.

J'adore!

It felt like an inescapable weight in my chest.
Pressing down on my heart.
Pushing down on my spirit.
Oh, how I long for it to fade,
like the fog on a winters morning.
But instead it fills me,
that black sticky mess.
Until it engulfs my very being 
Destroying my will.
Annihilating my soul.
Obliterating my heart.

Questions

Is my heart fickle... or afraid?
Do I deny my feelings and ignore them?
Or are they completely non existent?
Is it that I do not want them, 
and do not want related commitments?
Or is it simply a lack of acceptance,  ignorance, and simply will not hear them?
Perhaps, deep down, it is that I merely just fear them.

HEY SEXIES

Sorry if my posts seem kind of depressive/sad. It's just that when I write, I normally write when I'm emotional and upset because it's a vent for me. Therefore a significant amount of what I write is depressive/sad. I need to start writing when I am happy as well, just to give myself more of a variety and range of writing and not come across as so "emo" in my blog hehe :) I don't want to be one of those sad people with sad hollow thoughts, because deep down I'm not like that at all, I want to be one of those people with an ethereal light that emanates from within and be full of wondrous life.
Fact of the matter is : LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL.

Love, Georgia.
