  1. I wish I could sleep in the stillness of the night, but the stress just keeps me awake. I can’t stand the thought of not working, and yet, when I’m there, I don’t have the energy to keep up. Overwhelmed, not ready to take on anything more, I’ve simply had enough. Burned out? You bet.

  2. In the autumn struck gardens I see a stillness in the branches as there are no leaves to sway. In the scorching heat of the desert there is a stillness as there is so little life.

  4. I had to run out of there, your shadow covering evrything around me. I looked around in disbelief finally falling quietly in the silence you had sunk me in.

  7. stillness what i don’t know what to write it makes me think of water or peace and serenity or just laying there with someone or like laying there waiting for someone not to see you like being sneaky or avoiding someone and not wanting them to hear or see you. but I see the ocean too or even just something like a bird standing on a post at the beach because the ocean omg

  8. There is nothing more beautiful than still water. It is so easily disturbed; but for that time, nothing gets in the way of its simple stillness. I wish my mind could be as still as water sometimes, but then again, just as easily as you could snap your fingers, throw a rock in the water and …

  9. Stillness

    Sometimes blasted into a stillness, dismembered.
    Others held in the frozen chair of time’s hiccups.
    Often when sleeping, but not always.
    Most rarely when you don’t ask for it.
    When you forget, you have nothing but an active mind, distending strange meanings too all things. Never granted. Always from within. Broken. Phoenix.

  10. There never was stillness like there was while waiting, crouched in the dirt, waiting to be ambushed, completely sure you were about to be ambushed. It only lasts for a few seconds, sometimes less than one, but it just seems to drag on, terrified of what you’re sure is about to happen, and scared to think otherwise.

  11. I am in an unbearable place, somewhere where time tortures you as long as it takes. i have a need to open up and place a fire into this black hole, but lack the courage to let go. oh stillness where no progress takes place, why do you torture me this way. I am just heartbroken at this point and have no desire to take another step and go. So here I stay awake and conscious but paralyzed to take a chance.

  12. stillness is something rare in the modern industrialized world. Solitude and stillness are a rare luxury. They help you know yourself.

  13. In the dark there is nothing but stillness. It creeps around me like a snake in the underbrush. I feel it but I cannot see it. The stillness itself seems to be choking me, cutting of my ability to move; making me part of the stillness itself. I and the stillness are one and the same.

  14. stillness is what comes to mind when i think of a long shore under a cold breeze on a far island in the sea beyond all sense of the world and its people, beyond a sense of the ordinary, a place where we can find what meaning we can in the void of our minds as we tumble through experience, ever revolving in metaphysical space, and in that a kind of stillness itself where we find… whatever it is we find.

  15. The stillness of the water, shielded from the winds of the world by its glass protector. Fragile yet moving.

  17. Martin knew by the stillness of the air that something bad was going to happen, so he raised his sword high, ready to take on whatever came his way. Instead he was meet with a small orange kitten, it’s eyes large and sad.

  18. To be without motion, to relax. To stop. It seems a dream in times we leave, to pause. But time passes and life continues without stillness.

  19. Stillness. I dont how to express it but stillness and calm are two diferent things. It reminds me of death and makes me feel like living is a pain. Why am i alive if i cant know why i’m herE? what is this life people keep talking of? and is it worth my while to know why i’m alive? what will i do once i know why i’m alive? nothing. Sa

    nu mai stiu…ceva ceva ce nu te lasa sa stai locului cum e examenul de maine de la patrimoniu care ma calca pe inima si ma scoate din apele mele cele mai adanci. vreau sa se termine sa fug acasa

  21. Stillness is the quietness within. It is the most powerful dimension within the human being. Stillness is attained by meditation and requires not a lot of discipline but a lot of practice. It is important to have stillness within for a healthy life and for a healthy body.

  22. There are more than a thousand words that I can use to describe stillness. Not being able to move, not wanting to move, not willing to do with anything. But there’s another part. There’s that part where you have peace within yourself and you want nothing to do but with yourself. You realize that you have so much more than what you’re given and that stillness gives you peace.

  23. the stillness in the air is from the lack of wind. where did the wind go that happened to create the stillness?the stillness is captivating. you cant escape it.

  24. The only thing that I could see what the stillness of her eyes. The calm resolution that nothing was every going to occur in the depths of those pupils again. She was gone from me forever. Her face no long able to be lighted up by emotion and purpose. I miss her. I’ll never see anything but the stillness of death as long as I live.

  25. I could feel the absolute stillness right at the moment when I stepped in the classroom. Everyone was scribbling, reading, writing on their own desks. This silence was not queer yet it bugged me. I understood why they were all so unwaveringly hard-working but it just reminded me that I, too, was supposed to be doing the same thing right then. The time-is-running-short feeling is an queasy one and I could feel the pressure hovering upon me as if I was carrying a 1000 pound-heavy bag. There is a saying in Chinese, “there is always stillness prior to a thunderstorm”. considering the tranquility in my room, I believe the storm is just nearby and is coming very soon, perhaps I should gather up my mind and start preparing myself for the storm.

  26. i walked along the creek and noticed the stillness of the water. It was a hot day and I decided to dip my feet in. Instantly i noticed how refreshing it was and I knew that this would be the highest point of my day. I could feel my feet drinking in the moisture

  27. the stillness of the water, almost contemplating at my feet. the vast big ocean made me shiver, the thought of loosing you made me sad. it made me stll. it made me feel like that horrifying still ocean. stillness is not pleasant, stillness is not something i want, but that thought of u leaving me makes me shiver.

  30. there is no real stillness. Always there is a rustle, a cicada buzzing or a squirrel chasing about. Stillness is a thing to strive towards.

  32. I enjoy the stillness that comes with rain. I enjoy sitting in my basement while the sound of the little droplets splatters against my windows. I enjoy the light that the dark sky gives to everything indoors. The stillness of rain is not quite still, it’s a kind of commotion that seems detached from the real world. I love this kind of stillness.

  33. Stillness of heart, song by Lenny Kravitz. Such a great song that could expire everyone into getting on the mood of doing everything thats connected with calm behaviour.

  34. There was stillness in the woods. A different type of stillness. The trees were not dancing even though there was a breeze. The bushes and flowers wouldn’t budge. It was all still but I felt troubled by this as if there’s something wrong with the woods. Something wrong with nature.

  35. Isn’t it ironic that what we consider still, is not still at all? Calm beaches, woody forests loved for “stillness”.

  37. There is a stillness within me, inside of my heart. You’re gone now, that much is true. I’m empty. I hold this bottle of whiskey; my newest and dearest friend. I’ve got nothing else to live for. No, it’s not you’re fault. It’s me. It’s always me. I lost you and you were everything and now I have nothing to go back to, and that’s why I’m nothing.

  38. The corpse just laid there. The stillness of it was completely eerie, as I knew him in life. he was always so exuberant. So full of life. he was always running from one place to another, and always had something going on. And now here he is, right where everyone ends up.

  39. His stillness bothers me. He sat there, still as a rock. What have I done? Was there something wrong with what I just said? I tried to get his attention.

    “Andrew, are you alright?”

    He just looked at me with slightly teary eyes and nodded.

Tony signed looking at Bucky his brows furrowing in his sleep he seemed to dream about something that he wasn`t in in, Tony smiled reaching a hand over the other man`s jaw and he sighed in his sleep for a second Tony wondered what would happen if he presses a kiss over his lips just a childish one that so he did leaning in pressed his lips over his soft ones, and smiled when Bucky moved against him in his sleep.
