Endless Love

Rangi further buried deeper into insanity, spiraling into the unknown cries. “I feel lost and so alone and I'm scared I'm in an endless clouded dream endlessly chasing voiceless whispers in a timeless domain. I've become dependent and powerless to resist. It's time for our day's of beauty to come again however, I just have to know if I'm I too afraid to surmise a different way? With my voice I supply air to breathe and calm still skies, for knowledge and wisdom to arise and course in the breeze.…

What is love? People throw this word around every day, without even knowing the true meaning. According to Oxford dictionary, love is “an intense feeling of deep affection”. To me, this definition is the best way to describe this feeling. However, each person has their own individual meaning of love. Love comes in many different forms. It could be the love you have for a best friend, parent, significant other or even a sport. My love for my mother is totally different from the love I have for…

Whitman and Dickinson, two famous poets of the 19th century, have similar views on the love of a child to its mother, the love of a friend, and the love of a spouse always being omnipresent and blossoming within oneself.

included: mortality, the natural world, love, desire and faith. Dickinson was able to show abstract ideas with her descriptions of scenery. In the poem If I can stop, it attempts to show selflessness as something that fulfills someone’s heart. During the poem Dickinson rephrases, “I shall not live in vain”(Short story by Emily dickinson) , she says that as long as she can help someone from feeling pain, she will be complete. This shows a sense of love and compassion towards others. In many…

To both the fictional characters in F. Scott Fitzgerald’s famous novel, and its endless readers, Jay Gatsby’s overly decadent lifestyle and lavish parties were considered to be the ultimate American Dream and a source of excitement and pleasure. However, a close evaluation of the themes of the The Great Gatsby reveals the meretriciousness of wealth and how it brings more displeasure in life than it brings happiness. The first symbol expressing this theme is the color green, specifically the…

Mel seems to know what love is, yet he feels as though no one really knows what love is, quoting, “It seems to me we’re just beginners at love.” Mel categorizes love in two ways: physical love and sentimental love. Mel describes physical love as an “impulse that drives you to someone special, as well as love of the other person’s being, his or her essence, as it were.” On the other hand, sentimental love, or “carnal love,” as Mel describes, “the day-to-day caring about the…

grabbing tampons, or losing your mind trying to get the latest themed Makeup Collection; Valentines Day can drive you crazy if you aren't crazy in love. For me, this time of year is particularly painful as it was this time last year I was dumped by my EX only a few weeks after I moved to NYC.

This…

slowly fades as it descends into the waves. I am comforted by the sounds of the ocean; the rhythmic pounding of the endless sea. I look into the cloudless cerulean blue sky and see the perfection of life. As I stare into the horizon and watch every wave crash, I am reminded of my childhood. When I was a kid I often traveled to the beach with my family. My uncle and I spent endless hours creating some of the most complex sand castles. The castles had intricate designs with golden bridges…
