Mary Oliver, from Upstream: Selected Essay

[Text ID: “maybe it’s about the wonderful things that may happen if you break the ropes that are holding you.”]

firstfullmoon:

I said to my daughter on the phone: Be an honest person, // just be an honest person. Be honest, be honest, be honest. / Some days I can't believe what it means to be alive some days. / Some days I think about tearing myself apart but not exactly // with pleasure. Some days I know the strongest feeling is grief / but I believe it must be love: it has to be, has to be, has to. / Some days I feel each cell in my body has its fingers crossed.ALT

Timothy Donnelly, from “All Through the War” [ID in ALT]

“Don’t be ashamed to weep; ‘tis right to grieve. Tears are only water, and flowers, trees, and fruit cannot grow without water” — Brian Jacques, Taggerung.
