never let me go – kazuo ishiguro
When darkness surrounds you, remind yourself of the light in your heart. · ⋆
''I always went my own road and on my own legs where I had a mind to go.''
''We live, as we dream-- alone...''
''Between us there was, as I have already said somewhere, the bond of the sea. Besides holding our hearts together through long periods of separation, it had the effect of making us tolerant of each other's yarns- and even convictions.''
Abandonment
In the shadows, where echoes fade,
Lies a heart, by love betrayed.
Abandoned in the depths of night,
A soul that once burned pure and bright.
Silent footsteps, fading away,
Leaving behind a heart in disarray.
Promises broken, dreams unspoken,
In the darkness, love lies forsaken.
The stars above no longer gleam,
As if they too have lost their dream.
Abandonment's bitter, chilling cold,
Leaves a story of a love grown old.
But in the ruins, a glimmer remains,
A flicker of hope, a spark that sustains.
For in the darkness, we learn to see,
The strength within, the will to be free.
Abandonment may wound the soul,
Yet from its depths, we can find our goal.
To rise again, to love once more,
And in that love, our hearts restore.
''I am not such a fool as I look, quoth Plato to his disciples,'' he said sententiously, emptied his glass with great resolution, and we rose.
'' I don't like work - no man does - but I like what is in the work - the chance to find yourself. Your own reality - for yourself, not for others - what no other man can ever know. They can only see the mere show, and never can tell what it really means. ''
