the water isn’t good enough without the bitter taste of reality. the ocean of my life would not be so satisfying without the turmoil, the edge, the rages and the passions i so often indulge. so i let it run its course, hit the world, replenish it, give nourishment for everyone else. saltwater.

i can dance around this space with you. i can play the jester for your pleasure. i can speak the voices you love to hear or mime if you want silence. i can wear all the faces in this chest of mine but you will rarely see my own. i am sinking under all of [...]

the death of today is the birth of tomorrow
we must not regret but allow us to grow
rejoice the new day brought down with the sun
and scream ”hallelujah, a new me has begun” -

Everything happened in slow motion. The smoke rose like liquid through the air in front of his face and his eyes pierced through it as though it were a shield. I hated the smell of toxicity but when his fingers wrapped around the cigarette and his lips fold as he inhaled then opened once more [...]

i look out at the city. the busy streets and tall, metallic buildings remind me of London but here in Madrid even the structure of the city seems to have an accent. The colours are somehow different, there is still a sense of tradition and exoticism in the brickwork, the cement. And there, right outside [...]

bethanyruth wrote about the word given 1 year, 10 months ago
I like to think that everyone is unique; That we are all different in some way and that it is because of our own choices and the soul we were born with that makes us special. However, I can’t help but notice that everything I own I was given. My looks were given from my [...]

the sun set on infatuation, too premature to catch my breath. i never knew my pulse could beat like this, or that dizziness could take my mind so easily. you are just a crush, my love, i will forget you when you leave me, but for now, you never seem to let me go and [...]

just something I wrote…
I breathe for a love
That cannot be got by face or charm or wit
Where flirtation is a barren land
Where our eyes can be closed
And we still see itI breathe for a love
That makes all time previous fade to be
A path headed for a fertile land
Where our hearts conceal seeds
Which grow and we eatAh sweet love
I long for this taste
Which makes the flavour of all life seem sweetOh sweet love
Pour on my tongue
And in my throat begin to speakSweet voice that makes all sounds be songs in the world
Which collaborate so fondly that the ears of God himself begin to listen
And the angels dance in the skies where we met
And in our demise time will never forgetI breathe for a love
Which soul fulfilled I can happily cease breathing for
And rest happily in the heavens
With you
forevermore -
bethanyruth wrote about the word failed 1 year, 11 months ago
Failure is never the end. Failure is in fact the beginning of getting it right. If we never failed how would we know if we succeed? I am thankful for being ditsy at times, for being lazy or ignorant because as soon as I realise my mistake I restart much smarter, more energetic and knowledgeable.

we are never going to make it. eventually we will be forgotten. time is ticking us away and the best we can hope for is not to be remembered forever like media teaches us is the ideal but to help make the world better for future generations.

The smallest things, working together, can achieve incomprehensibly extraordinary things and change everything; together, they collaborate so beautifully that we cannot deny the power of unity. Take lesson in this. The next time you walk outside notice how everybody you pass is shaping the world, help them make it wonderful.

bethanyruth wrote about the word predict 1 year, 11 months ago
I can’t even begin to predict the events that are about to unfold before me. I make no time for planning because life is too very much alive; constantly moving, changing its mind. the best I can do is hope I am equipped for any possibility, that the mistakes I have made have evolved into [...]

it wasn’t blinding or bold or strong or out there, but it caught me anyway, completely off guard. hit my heart and i knew i was in love, swept far from this earth and taken somewhere very far away, just for one moment, our first meeting. Don’t ask me how i knew, just, please, please [...]

the distance goes by too fast to focus, the glass distorts into a blur. there is no reality in here. just a journey to some place you cant see. you just have to hope that what they say is true and that you aren’t going to some unknown place to be left stranded, or maybe [...]
