It has been a long time since I have sat down without torturing myself in my head. I don't think I ever have. Even if I sat alone I never rested calmly and breath the air and let it take away every negative in my heart out of me as it made its way out. One word only slips through my mouth in the middle of this exhaustion "ደክሞኛል". Doing all of this to be better and feel better,give myself better ways of love gestures....even after all of it there is something with in me that is just tired of it all. Are the chemicals an explanation of this? Is it just me? Is it "survival mode" since 12? Is it only projecting love and it not returning as how my soul needs it?maybe uts the waiting you know. Maybe its risking everything in my heart to trust love again and it not being what is of expected. Maybe its me reacting to all that goes on in my life from my broken 12 or 13 year old love neglected-traumatized self.Maybe its the constant fight to be better. To do better. Than yesterday so as not to lose a pint of breath for tomorrow. Or maybe I am just over thinking all of this and I am just tired of taking a 3 week long exam. I don't know. Its been a long time since I expressed something on here that I should have spoken. So there you go. This is to let you know we are all in this if you have been feeling like it. We are living. We are breathing. This is life. Noone is gonna put guns in your head for expressing that exhaustion. This isnot an easy life. But that doesn't mean it should take our lives from us. Take everyday as it comes. Its ok to not be where you think you should be or feel what you think you should feel. Today is Feb 10th. I am sure last year wasn't like this. Tomorrow is different too.
-From my heart to yours

No one would have chosen to lose their loved ones to write their own literature! We are not parasitic creatures who sap our literature from the blood of our loved ones, but when life robs us of what is dearest to us, we imitate our literature.

‍Everyone who found a home in my arms, I surprised them with my loss.

I still hear the names I’ve been called.
Their laughter still rings in my ears when I said “I don’t know what’s wrong with me but my insides hurt”

I’m protective of my dreams. Once, sharing who I want to be tomorrow brought painful days I never want to think of.
I’ve been told I’d never make it as the things I dreamt of becoming.

It’s uncomfortable when I feel eyes raking over me, I’m reminded of the whispers behind my back and the disgusted orbs I used to be greeted with.

Physical contact is a no. I try my very best not to offend arms eager to hold me but a mere brush of a skin against mine sends the whole of my body through a tremor and every inch of me is reminded of the touches I begged to run from.

I prefer listening because my words were never acknowledged. It’s a strange feeling, being heard.

Neither of these are poetic, nor are they beautiful. But I think my heart is learning to be grateful for both the rose and the thorns.

‍Who won you, my beautiful loss?

“What Does Yellow Look Like?”

When we were a bit younger, you asked me, “What does yellow look like?” And I went, “It looks like an adey abeba.” And after a heavy sigh, you continued, “What does an adey look like?” Without missing a beat I replied, “It’s like a sunflower, but smaller…” And as I was finishing that statement, I realized what was going on.

I am now sitting at my desk. And as I surrendered to nostalgia and was reminiscing that moment, something went through my mind: “My dear! You were so damn patient with me as a kid.” Actually, no. That wasn’t what originally went through my mind. It was a thought that is driving me to write this… to knit few words together and maybe try once more to describe what yellow looks like.

Yellow feels like listening to the genuine and pure laughter of a baby. It feels like holding the warm hand of your beloved when you feel cold as ice. It feels like sweet honey on your tongue. It feels like that skip in your heart when you think about spending a jolly time with your friends. Yellow sounds like Pharell’s “Happy”.

I reckon you want to know how the other colours (make me) feel…

Red awakens the “passionate” in me out of the blue. It feels like that sudden heartbeat when you listen to that loud, strong beat on maximum out of nowhere. It feels like fight or flight. Red feels like being kissed on your neck and smells like Versace. Red feels like bravery, passion and vulnerability all at once. And weirdly, it somehow pops in my mind when I think of numbers that end with three as well.

Putting aside the fact that it’s the international symbol of sadness, blue feels calm and divine. It feels cold yet warm. It feels as though it has everything under control. It feels weirdly transparent. It’s as serene as serenity could ever be.

Green feels like the thought of your mother. It feels like being assured of having a provider. It smells like the streets after the rain washed over them. It feels like a cold day of kiremt. It sounds like winds blowing between leaves. And as much as it represents nature well, green sounds like the bleep-bloop of a computer as well.

Now, orange. Orange feels like drinking warm milk on a cold day. It feels like walking on dry leaves. It feels like the warmth in your heart when you put your head on that special someone’s shoulder, witnessing a lovely dusk.

Brown… I have a sweet spot for the colour brown and all of its shades. Though I claim to have no favourite colours, I really can get a bit biased when it is about brown. It triggers that part of my brain that loves staying late at libraries… that part that loves staying up watching something nerdy and academic. Brown feels like a Harry Potter book. It tastes like that iced coffee at that cafe you love. It smells like a dusty gazette. It’s like the colour of the flag of “cosiness”. It stands for the expression of comfort in my dictionary.

And finally grey. Grey reminds me I can be still in whatever chaos I am in. It reminds me I needn’t have everything figured out just yet. Grey is like that friend you can talk to at any time and can be sure that you are understood. It sounds like a light white noise. And strangely, it’s what comes to my mind when I think of Dior.

Dear old friend wherever you are, hope this finds you well and sound. I’ll wrap this up with few sentences thanking you for not being of the “easily-offended”, thanking you for being open to things beyond your sensing capacity, and most importantly, thanking you for being a good friend that helps me think and look at things differently.

All my love, dearie.
