Cemetery of our Senses (+Reading)
I walk through the graveyard of our feelings,
To find that cherished grave -
Where we buried a joyful moment
Where we left what was ...
I am slowly walking in the dark,
Trying to see without light
Where once I was with you
Among the warm rays warmed ...
I walk through the cemetery of our senses,
Making my way in the dull darkness
I walk carefully, I won't stumble ...
I would only get to the place
I am walking remembering the road
We once walked ...
To bury the anxiety that
comes from a stupid soul into the ground
I walk through the cemetery of our senses
I would find this grave,
where that monument of art is dug,
Where we buried our love ...
I will stand alone there-
Remembering what once was,
That we were hoping for something,
But in the end it died quickly...
I walk through the cemetery of our feelings
It doesn't hurt me now, believe me ...
I checked that no one would open it
That love that is more terrible than the beast
I will put flowers there, I will
light two candles in a row ...
Remembering why we came here
Breaking all human covenants
I walk through the cemetery of our senses
I saw that grave ... I will
bury the remnants of those feelings
That are still carefully hidden in me

To end a relationship is hard enough ... to honor it so, takes a special soul to put it to rest so eloquently ... Bless and much love ... .

So, so beautiful. People wonder why letting go of a relationship is so hard. You have to do no less than what you've said here. It is a death.

You are to sweet Margo. Letting go and change can be really hard but sometimes it's necessary for many reasons but it is definitely a death. A death of what you have built together, of your feelings, and so much more. 🪦 🌹 🪦 🌹 🪦 Thank you so much for the comment.
Re. Cemetery of our Senses (+Reading)
Beautifully written and read, Kristina❣ I love the movement in your video. It made me better visualize walking with you.
The idea of a cemetary for our feelings and sensations is a poignant metaphore and a grave most would be loath to visit again.
My favorite stanza is the last. The revisitation to bury, perhaps, the last vestiges of the once loving relationship. Bravissima Goddess friend🙏🌹

Thank you so much for your wonderful compliment and encouragement GW. I was happy to find that copyright free video to use. I am pretty impatient at searching so it worked out well. I am glad you could visualize walking with me on this journey through feelings and that you appreciate the metaphor. Ah, it is so hard to bury a relationship, memories, and feelings and they continue to live in us regardless how hard we try. Thank you so much for the comment. 🪦 🌹 🪦 🌹 🪦

I am so happy you enjoyed this little journey with me BC. Also, thank you so much for the compliment on the audio; that really means a lot to me. I love cemeteries as well but perhaps that is because I have done some things there that would wake the dead. Also, aside from that I find them very peaceful. :) Happy Easter 🪦 🌹 🪦 🌹 🪦

That is such a beautiful thing to say I_IS_ME, thank you. It does feel different now, I am much more apt to share all sorts of things and open up more; although there are still some very personal things I don't share. I do like the sixth also.

Sometimes the time comes when you know something is over and yet we still hang on much longer even when it's doing damage. Finding the other half can be a difficult pursuit but one I think most everyone undertakes. Thank you for the comment and encouragement Francisco. 🪦 🌹 🪦 🌹 🪦

Dear K,
“I walk through the cemetery of our feelings
It doesn't hurt me now, believe me ...
I checked that no one would open it
That love that is more terrible than the beast” as I take this to represent the shutting down of our most real selves in order to preserve sanity, dignity, our souls, I thought this phrase was so keenly aware of that capability and innate reaction to survive a love loss that overwhelms. This poem is such a lovely dedication to the art of healing and respecting what was. Amazing line of thought. To honor the love instead of resent it. I’m going to use this on my own walk of redemption. Thank you. Oh! Btw- gorgeous read and video! So well suited to the write. H🌷

You are always so perceptive and your observations are so perfect. Surviving that love lost can definitely be very difficult sometimes; with that there is definitely struggle to maintain sanity, dignity, and our soul. Saving the soul so we can continue to love and not give up on the pursuit to find that person who completes us. Still we definitely need to learn and heal from each of these challenges. Hopefully we can take away something that helps us in the journey moving forward although some of those lessons can come at a great cost. They can make us question if true love exists at all. Trying to honor what was and it what it taught us so we don't become resentful and full of regret. I am so happy you liked the line of thought and hearing that you will use this is just the most amazing thing. Thank you so much for the incredible compliment on the reading and video. :) 🪦 🌹 🪦 🌹 🪦

Really loved again the reading and hearing you read the poem : ) The metaphor of a cemetery for feelings and emotions works really well although it never is like that for me as me leaving a relationship is like a cremation and then one moves on lol.
Cheers

Sometimes cremation is definitely warranted or at least trying to lock things away in the crypt. Some things can continue to haunt regardless. I am really happy you liked the metaphor. And thank you so much for the great compliment on the reading. If it enhanced things then I am definitely happy about that too. 🪦 🌹 🪦 🌹 🪦

Re: Re. Cemetery of our Senses (+Reading)
Thank you for the really wonderful comment Ethan. I really love everything you said. I am so happy you could see the balance. So often there is a lot of negativity around break ups and the past and we don't learn from the mistakes. I was trying to keep a balance so I am really happy that you saw it. I also love that you liked the bold and italics and the contrast there. But most of all I love 'gothic ethereal authenticity..." Thank you so much for the detailed feedback, it really means a lot to me. 🪦 🌹 🪦 🌹 🪦

It's a touching and venerable verse Kristina. One can hear the ache and the ghosts of memories in your voice as you walks us through this cemetery, haunting us to the core.
Beautiful and outstanding work.

hi KX, while searching for the waterfall
i came across this cemetary from nowhere!
what atmosphere it is here
and my hope is that your succubus and my succubus fuck in the middle of it
and devour eachother giving back the true meaning to cemetary

Still searching for the waterfall, I see. The atmosphere of cemetery especially in Europe is such a special one. What all the people laid to rest there must have seen. Elaborate tombstones and crypts are so beautiful. That's definitely an interesting image you conjured there, two Succubi in the middle of it devouring each other. Sounds like something more needs to be written on that. Thanks for listening and sharing your thoughts CI. 🪦 🌹 🪦 🌹 🪦

I just listened to your reading and calm soothing voice over
its actually a very reflective and meaningful piece
i have to apologise about perverting it with the succubii
i jumped the gun, and conjured these wicked images without realising
the potency of your message and orated delivery
whip me up with lashes :(

Definitely reflective but that reflection can come in many forms. Including in the form of Succubi. My writing generally has a number of meanings. Still I am glad you went back and could feel the reflective nature of it and the potency of the message and delivery. Thanks so much for coming back to it and giving it another listen, and for sharing your thoughts again. ;) 🪦 🌹 🪦 🌹 🪦
