Ocean water remains salty

even as sweet river water flows into it

Continuously.

Similarly,

Life remains salty even as

heavenly spirit streams into it

constantly.

Don't give me those
Sad puppy eyes
When you broke
My heart
Don't try to erase
My tears drip dripping
Down my face
Instead just quietly
Leave me behind

~
We don't need
Other worlds
We need mirrors

We need thin waists
And a hysteresis curve
To the hips

Let us drink in the sea
And laugh as our number
Comes up

Let us commit
To be noncommittal
And talk nary a word

On age and death
Over afternoon tea
In the bright withered garden

Where the goodness of man
Longed to be more
Than its darkling reflection
~

I will never forget all the good things my father has done for me. I love him for a lot of reasons...but one of the major reasons for which i love him is because he has taught me the 3 most valuable lessons of my life-
1)How not to treat a woman(especially if she happens to be your wife. It really pained me to say this.)
2)Your first priority in life should be to become self-independent as soon as possible.
3)Never put blind trust in anyone.
