🔰The First Day of Summer by illneas

If I hadn't decided to stay
Then I wouldn't have bumped into you, accidentally spilling your drink
And if you hadn't been kind enough to forgive my obvious clumsy behavior
Then we wouldn't have met

And later on, as we were joking about the invisible lines of fortune
We would sense all the eventualities we haven't lived
And we would jokingly yet truthfully fear what would happen if I hadn't spilled that drink

You are the only person with whom I can share this thought
Sometimes it's important to know that people breathe easier because of you
There is nothing more painful than watching you unable to see how beautiful you are

I appear in lives out of nowhere and my only gift is that I know when to disappear

If I hadn't decided to close the door slowly
Not to make any sound thinking you were still sleeping
Then you wouldn't have reached fast enough to prevent me from leaving

We've been here before
Saying goodbye to the first day of summer

[PetTwin]

This was so beautiful. I feel so privileged that you used my song for this piece. I’m going through some things in my personal life at the moment which are mirrored in this poem. The line about closing the door slow is particularly pertinent and makes my heart ache.

"I appear in lives out of nowhere and my only gift is that I know when to disappear "
You described my whole life with these two lines!

I saw your video 2 years ago when I was suicidal. And now I’m still alive

[Equilyx]

Raindrops in your sky blue eyes
A flickering flame in mine
we're by the ocean
watching the sun set
again

Sparkles in your crystal eyes
a fading glimmer in mine
we're by the lakeside
watching the moon rise
again

Its sunrise
Its sunset
Its moonrise
Its moonfall
again

We'll stay here under the stars
talking
reminiscing
and enjoying the silence
again

Twinkles in your diamond eyes
a shadow reflection in mine
we're by a gentle stream
watching the moon fall
again

Star skies in your glowing eyes
A midnight abyss in mine
we're by a puddle
watching the sun rise
for the last time

Again

~Equilyx

“It’s suffocating to be surrounded by happiness and not being able to feel it”

[aesthetistic]

These poems are very soothing 😌
All thanks to you mate!

[Metamorphosed_almost]

"There is nothing more painful than watching you unable to see how beautiful you are" This is rare and beautiful. People who have been gaslighted most of their life are too diffident to believe even a simple compliment sometimes.

Wish you luck for more Summers ahead. 🌻

"there is nothing more painful than watching you unable to see how beautiful you are" ouch, internet friend, ouch.

Your videos are so peaceful and relaxing, when everything around me moves at the speed of light your videos are my safe place of tranquility.

I really adore how you give those poems life. It's amazing how I can see an entire story unfold in my head as you show us the visuals. There are various interpretations in art, but at the end, those shots make give it more meaning

[Katzeblow]

Clumsy behaviour has left me bruised, limping and sad.

[kda]

This is so beautiful, thank you for sharing

''Sometimes it's important to know that people breathe easier because of you
There is nothing more painful than watching you unable to see how beautiful you are''

These two lines are really hitting home for me, cause they make me think of someone I know

And welcome to my home country (The Netherlands)!! I hope you'll have a great time here :) for me uni is starting again tomrrow

Hello illneas!! I have been a long time subscriber of yours because I deeply appreciate your art as it really resonates with me.
After watching this I want to suggest a thing, which is to dedicate something beautiful to monsoon and it’s beauty.
I believe you will nail it!
As always keep up the good work.
🤗❤️
