"become dust with me, my love. insignificant and everywhere"

"our bones will become homes for living creatures other than our egos" thank you

"there exists a place where we can be still, and in love." just beautiful!

I’ve heard this poem before accompanied by JP Cooper’s beautiful singing voice and guitar and it’s so interesting to see her recite this poem in a way that is different from the last. In the first, she was crying and emotional and in this recitation, it’s more as if she’s nostalgic or reminiscing about something or someone. Either way, this is one of my favorite poems ❤️

"become dust with me, my love"

Insignificant and everywhere

she is definitely one of my favorite poets 💙

I love that this poem can be interpreted as a sweet love poem, or much, much darker... almost as if she’s pining for her death and the death of her love, so they can be together... forever.

Oh my God I love her

Do I have to say how amazing she is or can here passion, dedication and the dripping emotion from her words say it for themselves?

i was captivated from the first line. thank you for this, i don't think a poem has hit me this hard in a long time

Hello Dana , I know it's really not appropriate for me to burst into your DM trying to talk to you, but I'm sorry about your loses I can understand your pain as I've had a great deal of loss of my loved ones in the past and I can still feel the void in my heart, I'd love to talk to you / chat, I'd like to be honest you're such a beautiful woman and that's great, being strong is the key to overcome grief, but you'd still never forget about your loved ones, I just want to know about you and hopefully have a great conversation, here is my #+17866678266 it'd be nice if you just say hi, or send me your gmail address so i could reach out on you.

This is the most beautiful depiction of love that I have ever been blessed with.

This has been my favorite poem from her for forever. It speaks to me on such a level beyond comprehension. I love her

Chills the entire time, wow

She looks like if Rihanna and Sabrina Benaim had a baby

She mixed all her spoken word’s together 😍❤️😓😞

Amazing. One of my favorite performances both to watch and listen to.

Every time she recites this it feels like a new experience. I cry. “Become dust with me insignificant and everywhere”

..Speechless. Just SO good

Maybe my new favorite poem on this entire channel!

OH I LOVE THIS WITH ALL MY HEART ❤️

This is so beautiful.

The strivers row reading was my favorite version. I love this one too it has a different flavor than the other one though. Each was great in its own right.

I performed this in high school & I plan to do it again at my wedding

I love this

This was so good I can’t put it into words

This is absolutely AMAZING ✊🏾

I think awesome done risen to a whole another level. Epitome!

long story short I'm crying and this is now my favorite poem

This is so gorgeous

This is still so beautiful, but there is SO much more emotion in the “original” one w JP! I’m glad you’re here Alysia, I’ve missed your poetry.

"There will come a day When the fear of death will be the favorite joke Passed amongst corpses, And they are already laughing. My love, please don't be afraid, But there will come a day When field mice play in our empty sockets, When our bones become homes for living creatures Other than our egos, And when time will jostle our skeletons Out of the composition that is me, And you, And will write with us love letters That spell, 'I-O-U eternity.' If we believe in life after death, Then I often wonder why we assume the dead like coffins, When people were never meant to live in boxes. So I pray our children will have the good sense To leave us a little wriggle room, Leave us exposed Like stray dogs in a thunderstorm. And I'll hear the breeze, and not know it as the breeze. I'll feel the rain, and not know it as the rain. I'll behold the sky and not know it as the sky. Instead, I will hear the breeze and think it is your laugh Returned to the hearth of my ear. And I will feel the rain, and think it is the pinprick of your kiss, And when the rain is tender, I will know something has softened you, And when it is violent, I will know something has shaken you, And in this newfound understanding, Without eyes, or ears, or hands, or even lips Our bare bones will make love in the dirt Never knowing our nakedness. Imagine, imagine a rough wind Cursing through a calligraphy of weeds. In our disrepair, we have grown gardens of ourselves. Sprouts of curious grass shooting from our eye sockets, Our knuckles, hard, smooth skipping stones Meant for child's play, And the devilish sun picking its way through your missing teeth, And neither one of us can keep from smiling these days. And the days go unnoticed, And the nights go unslept, And we talk, we talk with our souls Through the holes in our ribs Where our organs once sat. Imagine, imagine your skull and mine Both reduced to grins, Both washed clean of our skins, and our sins, Growing young again. Forgetting why we ever wrinkled Or why we ever furrowed our brow with the plow of anger Become dust with me, my love Insignificant, and everywhere For I will love you Even after your marrow has become a whisper And your bones nothing but the snickering of gravel Let us soak in the spaces our shadows leave behind Your skeleton laced with mine I will tie your soul to my ankle And know what it is like to step into a dream And you, you will try on my backbone And see how bad it hurt the day You said you were calling it quits I don't remember why you left Or why you came back I don't know how many years have passed Not really sure that years pass at all All I know is, the rain falls, you kiss me like a rainfall The sun, it bleaches us clear And every day is a romance So all this to say, we are already laughing. There is a wedding of pebbles and earthworms waiting. When our tuxedo skeletons no longer fit, There is space for our faces to lie Planted beside each other Forever smiling There exists a place where we can still be in love, I know it does, There exists a place where we can be still And in love, Just two gentle skulls."

Just holy fuck man she always gives me chills

Beautiful

We hold right to a life guaranteed to end. The eternal journal of destiny is where the exit of the World is the Universe really beginning. I really liked that poem.

Wow, awesome poem!

Holy poptarts.. she is magic

Woooow!

How and why the crowd didn't go nuts forever awes me

This hits something deep.... *Become dust with me*

💚

A death that is not loneliness... beautiful...

And the death said: I never left. Still here. ... waiting.

It's like she's making love to her words ......beautiful

woah.

Wow. She's good

i choose to live in the afterlife after this life of pain where these stray dogs and cats rain down on these lands the rivers flow on whither or not we float on or fight the currents of this time you speak of i choose to live after this life, not because i should but because i must live on after god touched or not i will not be your angel

This positive nihilism is what I live for

After watching this I realized some dust had entered my eyes cause they were dripping.
