The First Post

"The sky gleamed in the hue of a magnificent sapphire over a million illuminated lanterns reaching out to it. The breeze rushed past freshly mowed grass and carried its scent to scintillate the sense of every soul there. It was almost like the aroma of burnt wood was healing the quivering of a million people that night. They all watched the lanterns soar but more importantly they felt themselves soar in the tiny universes they had created for themselves."

The creation of this blog arises out of the need to not let reality destroy us. It is a recluse for every dreamer out there who had to combat cynical minds and ridiculed sighs. What better strength than words, which in Dumbledore’s opinion, are the most inexhaustible source of magic. 

Welcome to RadEssence!  There will be endless rains, romanticized pain, old music and most of all, words of a vintage heart.

What makes me Rad? Rising from the ashes.

Fresh flames blazed,
ferocious and intense,
although the shimmer faded,

Smoke prolonged its stay.

There was a tiny flicker,
of suffering and pain,
But the wind changed direction,
Gathering broken dreams.

Upon this base, a tornado emerged
Swirling tiny particles into a whole
Incarnating a new her.
It was her rebirth.

Oh so valiant and so powerful,
Head lifted with the winds of pride,
Her striking eyes glimmered,
With the same heat, the same fire,
That burned her down.

She emitted sincere rage
Rage to not quit, just go on.
