Whispering to brown eyes
Dearest,You are cuter than a box of kittens,
Sweeter than chocolate-covered sweets,
Prettier than the fairest supermodel,
And hotter than the hottest sun.
.
What I like about you, though,
Is your special kind of charm.
Your wit, your high intelligence,
talking with you is intoxicating.
.
I know it might be
Frowned upon or strange,
But I just cannot help myself
When I look upon your face.
.
I know you're close to me, so close,
But I crave to have you closer.
To touch you, kiss you, hold you,
And never to let go.
.
I guess that we will never be,
But I dream it all the same.
I hope that we will sometime be
A couple, sharing dreams.
Passion of the Sith
Peace.
I hate the word. Obviously, peace is regarded by its advocates as the ultimate goal, the pinnacle of being.
Peace is a lie.
Sure, a place can be peaceful, and a person at peace. But that is merely a fragment of reality; a camera that focuses on one particular thing -- a subjective truth at best. The eye of a storm is peaceful, yet it cannot be denied that the world around it is not.
This is especially true for people. While individuals may be at peace, the people as a whole are generally not. This is not a bad thing -- restless people try to improve their position, which is of benefit to the whole civilisation, the entire culture. This energy, this restlessness, is often described as 'passion'.
There is only passion.
Naturally, there is not just passion -- most individuals find a balance between peace and passion -- but in a people, passion is most prominent, most important, to that people. Only through passion can we evolve.
Passion is therefore the key to impoving ourselves and our surroundings.
Through passion, I gain strength.
Strength -- not merely muscles -- is what allows civilisations to thrive in hostile climates, amongst competing peoples, from corruption from within.
Walls and soldiers are merely figureheads of a culture's strength. Its true core lies in its people, holding fast to a belief that they can and will endure, no matter the odds.
And against all odds, people often do endure. And grow. And become more respected or feared, and powerful.
Through strength, I gain power.
Through power, I gain victory.
The more powerful a civilisation becomes, the more adept at improving its situation it will become. And this increases its power over potential rivals.
A powerful enough people can conquer the world -- though keeping it is more difficult by far. But more importantly, power is a self-supporting system.
The powerful always seek more power. By definition, this increased power will come from others. They obviously do not want to hand over their might, but attempts at regaining it will be futile if there is a great enough difference in power and ability.
Through victory, my chains are broken.
When one is more powerful than anything or anyone else, one is free to do whatever they want. Nobody can stop them.
The chains of the past, the shackles of that struggle for life, fall away.
And yet... they have no Force.
The Force shall free me.
What does that mean?
I believe, that it means that the Sith Code is true even without the Force. It is true for both individuals and peoples. Whether they act forcefully or gently, their entire existance could not exist without that struggle, that power, that passion that fills their being.
We are all Sith.
