William David Maxwell @emersynlaughs.bsky.social · 22/09/2026We are the answer to the questions long sought. Searching for bliss in wayward corners of facades and charades. The oaths sworn that weren't worth the dirt underfoot. Taking the lessons, committing it to memory, keeping the faith. A hand found mine, my love shining in the dark. 183
William David Maxwell @emersynlaughs.bsky.social · 21/09/2026The soft filler of life that doesn't taste like stagecraft is a blessing. 060
William David Maxwell @emersynlaughs.bsky.social · 21/09/2026My eyes give out my heart to the right sunrise. That warms and doesn't burn, heat that you invite into your house for coffee. It is an easy embrace that remembers politeness when the weather turns rough. Which knows the way to find the sacred on the lips of honest tandem souls. 070
William David Maxwell @emersynlaughs.bsky.social · 21/09/2026Clarity is peace. Even if the road is long. 060
William David Maxwell @emersynlaughs.bsky.social · 06/09/2026I see white butterflies in clusters of two across the way. Spinning around together, rising up in the air in courtship rituals. Some come down in a pair, others by themselves. Then, back into the air, they go in the same dance, not always with their last partner. I smiled. That's life. 081
William David Maxwell @emersynlaughs.bsky.social · 06/09/2026Done well, the little death doesn't require a postmortem. 190
William David Maxwell @emersynlaughs.bsky.social · 06/09/2026I could cuddle up with my eccentricities. But you're warmer. 150
William David Maxwell @emersynlaughs.bsky.social · 06/09/2026She asked for my gentleness after the collision. Tender is the flood. 060
William David Maxwell @emersynlaughs.bsky.social · 06/09/2026Bake me into your poetry. Recipes are best when crafted together. 180
William David Maxwell @emersynlaughs.bsky.social · 06/09/2026I didn't need rainbows and galaxies beaming from your eyes for me. All I ask is honest regard, truthful words, passionate repast, lingering longing that is as insatiable as your hands when they find me. 060
William David Maxwell @emersynlaughs.bsky.social · 06/09/2026Hey Google. Play "Love in an Elevator" 040
William David Maxwell @emersynlaughs.bsky.social · 06/09/2026My feet traverse the expanse of your loamy earth. The land you asked me to cultivate for a bountiful harvest that carries the celebration of your embrace. Your softness on the fragile fallen leaves to come. Rolling in the mud we leave our impressions in. A flood could make us clean. But not yet. 060
William David Maxwell @emersynlaughs.bsky.social · 06/09/2026Do honour to the ghosts in the peripheral plane of your notice. The dregs of humanity that people forgot but time remembered. There is gold in the straw, wisdom in the alleyways. You won't find a pariah amongst the loss. Only truth. 050
William David Maxwell @emersynlaughs.bsky.social · 06/09/2026Nourish your light in the span of my embrace. I am soil to grow in, rain to cleanse the toil away. A preface that had the audacity to become a novel. One you read slowly and make notes in the margins. The ink of our heartsblood. 050
William David Maxwell @emersynlaughs.bsky.social · 06/09/2026Though I know not your struggle, I see your pain. I care. 071

William David Maxwell @emersynlaughs.bsky.social · 06/09/2026Stop selling yourself to finite souls full of facades that don't love you. You're not alone. You're more than a brand or trend or something left in the dust. Carry your light with a smirk that screams defiance at your door. Your worth belongs to you. 071

William David Maxwell @emersynlaughs.bsky.social · 05/08/2026You don't find hope in retraced musings. The former days have nothing new to offer. Stride to the point you didn't think was meant for you. Shake your fist in the face of doubts with a silk gauntlet covering steel desire. 1123

William David Maxwell @emersynlaughs.bsky.social · 10/07/2026My steps are amongst the fields, in the soil of the ghosts of my blood. Present is both old and new, wondering and becoming. The bastion of indecision left behind as a crumbling ruin. There isn't a dark that scares me any longer. Consume what would swallow you. And thrive as a creature reborn. 1212

William David Maxwell @emersynlaughs.bsky.social · 04/07/2026I've lived my days in between wandering and rabbit holes. Understanding the life lessons in the difference of area opposed to volume.
