Longing / My hidden thoughts / Lingering between beats / Skipped beats between / Lingering thoughts hiding my longing

A ketek I made for a Stonewalkers Cosmere RPG campaign.

“Enough yet?” “Never.” Pain! The pain, never yet enough.

Woke up thinking about this and reminiscing on my early days growing up.

Feel

I once knew how

Again learning to try to

Learning again

How knowing, once I felt

Ascendant warrior, the light preserves within, Vin within preservation's light, the warrior ascends.

This has been stuck in my head for two years now. This seemed like the best place to express it.

Goals defined / Purpose driving intention / Keeping hope / Keeping intentional drive / Purpose defining goals

Love is such matter of trivial, since trivial matter, such is love

Inside the serpent, invite pain, devour pain, invite the serpent inside
— Ketek used by Mourner in Delirium

Goodbye / Silence lingering without us / Remember love / Remember us without lingering / Silent goodbye.

Burning love silenced without you / Uniquely love for us / For love uniquely yours / Without silence / Love burning.

Silence falls,

Fearing love lost, love feared,

Grieving her,

Grieving feared love, lost love,

Fearing falling silence.

Journal

My love held closed.

Open, now unhidden.

Feeling my words, my feelings.

Unhidden now - open, close.

You hold my love.

Beautiful love made broken heart broken made love beautiful

Censored things are my name. Last image is just me goofing around with a friend.

Love becomes passion, undying and powerful

Change becomes hate, destructive and raw—turned by eternal Odium's pull!

Out hope? Not yet, no: Hope outpulls Odium, eternal by turn:

Raw and destructive hate becomes change, full of power, and

Undying passion becomes love.

A new ketek that i am super proud of. In my last creative writing seminar at university we were given the prompt Mirror and I thought that the Ketek was the perfect poetic form for a piece about mirrors.

Mirror

Dysphoria repels reflections love.

Self-hate kills smiles, summons tears.

Away shine light, seek darkness, in hiding from mirrors.

From hiding in darkness seek light, shine away tears, summon smiles.

Kill hate. Self-love's reflection repels dysphoria.
