Beautiful is the man who spits fire.
Flames slithering in the air,
Waving to and fro like the hips of a belly dancer.
Beautiful is he who stands contorted and distorted.
So immune to pain;
Twisted in such a way it seems impossible.
He holds so much balance;
Wields so much strength.
Yet with one misstep,
Misconception,
He loses his life, and is forced to start anew.
...Again.
And again.
And again.
And again.
They tell him endlessly he's beautiful, and shatter that image either gradually, or within the instant.
He feeds into it, and he can't help it
Because he knows it's "true".
He knows he's beautiful.
...Somewhere, he's beautiful.
There exists a place for him to be as lovely as people tell him;
It lies within the heart of love,
But he just has to find where that love is.
He just needs them to tell him where it is.
They never tell him where that is, exactly,
Never tell him why,
Never tell him how.
They never tell him.
...They never tell me
「 A Flower Born of Sand 」 : ❝ As beautiful and graciously delicate as a flower once said to be, but one only ever sees the crumbling of its form and the slow sift of dark sand. ❞ — I like to watch them dance on the petals of anguish. Reminds me of home. Leaves me stricken with such familiarity. The feel of those petals stimulating nerves through burning and piercing sensations and somehow bliss...their color heating with even the slightest touch of the feet. How dainty they seemed—somehow strong, but dainty they seemed. And the cries, the sheer cries of agony they sing melt what's left of my feeble heart. Leave me siging and humming along with them in empathy, before the gritty tingle of their ashes clog my throat. Too many times have I felt that pain, and call me masochistic, but I yearn to capture it... Capture it. Store it for later use. Remind myself through them, I'm human. I can do these things too.
