Beskrivelse
Aether by L. Pearlheart was published in 2018. It is a book of poetry and prose about love, Loss, hope, the beauty of the world, and all that is worthwhile having a second thought about.
It offers a challenging poetic view of the world rather than a philosophical perception of it and contains new and memorable quotes such as:
"When you are drunk with yourself you don't hear your loud voice, yet everyone else does. Your obnoxiousness is evident to all but you." - Egotism made apparent
"Charity is a temporary solution. It is a bridge and you don't live on a bridge, you pass through it." - On Charity
"Life is extraordinary, death is not, it is a cessation of life and as such ordinary; empty space is full of it." - On Life and Death
"Let him or her view life ending, he or she that thinks life is to be endured, and they shall see it renewed and understand its intrinsic value." - On Life
Excerpts from the lyrics titled "On Existing"
I am the firefly, I don't know my purpose, but to live a day in eternity is a life lived nonetheless
I may not last, but I know I'm here to shine and pass
On and on to begin, re-composed becoming air
My doubts are recurring, but certain I am of the beauty of my fading light
Sooner or later parts of me finding a vine
I am born forever
Fear in absurdity will die
To do good is the secret of my illuminating lines; everything else is but noise in time
See me feeble in the darkness facing the almighty night
My deeds are forever carried by sparks
Like shields by knights, I offer no immunity but protection from the larks
Diamonds in the abyss are diamonds nonetheless
"Between the gods and humankind, I stand and plead for the imperfect kind."
I want to be that kind
I am the firefly and I live today
