Mas n&#227;o h&#225; mais olhos se encontrando. Apenas esbarr&#245;es, toques sem tato, um quase atravessar de corpos como sombras. Semitransparentes. O sangue ainda corre, o cora&#231;&#227;o pulsa, mas est&#227;o todos ocupados demais para ouvir qualquer coisa. </p><p>&#8220;Me desculpe&#8220;. </p><p>Possuem tamb&#233;m seus fones de ouvido. Atravessamos vidas de forma t&#227;o superficial que n&#227;o parece que as m&#227;os foram dadas em algum momento. Nem sequer que nossos corpos habitaram desejo num mesmo instante. A desconex&#227;o &#233; instant&#226;nea, tal qual tirar o cabo da tomada. Ali j&#225; n&#227;o h&#225; mais energia, n&#227;o h&#225; mais vida.</p><p>O rel&#243;gio marca 18h, mas n&#227;o h&#225; ningu&#233;m &#224; espera.</p>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[Não Sei.

Mas depende de quem e como vai chegar. Como voc&#234; pretende perguntar? Tomando uma ta&#231;a de vinho, uma x&#237;cara de caf&#233;, um copo de suco de laranja ou maracuj&#225;? Quando e onde? No quarto &#224;s sete da noite, na sala &#224;s cinco da tarde, no parque &#224;s nove da manh&#227; ou em algum outro lugar em um hor&#225;ria a decifrar? O que vai questionar? Quer saber o que &#233; sucesso geral, sucesso profissional, sucesso acad&#234;mico, sucesso familiar ou qualquer outro sucesso? Seja espec&#237;fico e, ent&#227;o, talvez, sem nenhuma certeza posso afirmar, no entanto, talvez eu saiba te responder. Mas pode esperar que lhe devolverei a pergunta e ainda contestarei, ent&#227;o veja bem o que pretende perguntar. Mas sucesso pra mim &#233; coisa simples, de outro mundo, mas simples. Sucesso &#233; o aconchego do meu lar, mas tamb&#233;m pode ser viajar. Sucesso &#233; ter as pessoas que amo ao meu lado, mas tamb&#233;m pode ser ficar sozinha por um per&#237;odo de tempo, escutar meus pensamentos e sorrir sem companhia ao me lembrar que a vida ainda &#233; boa&#8230; &#233; bela. Sucesso n&#227;o deve ser generalizado, na sociedade sucesso pode ser constituir fam&#237;lia, ter a casa lotada de crian&#231;as, ou ainda ter somente uma, qui&#231;&#225; nenhuma e viver voc&#234; e seu c&#244;njuge&#8230; At&#233; mesmo viver sem c&#244;njuge. Sucesso &#233; subjetivo, e isso &#233; o que o deixa t&#227;o bonito. Sucesso pode ser encantador ou s&#243; um monte de dinheiro feito sem amor. Sucesso pode ser sentimento, pode ser acalento, mas tamb&#233;m pode ser frieza, pode ser c&#225;lculo sem margem de erro, pode ser solid&#227;o&#8230; Sucesso n&#227;o &#233; pra mim o que &#233; pra voc&#234;, &#233; coisa diferente, &#233; coisa pessoal. De acordo com o Aur&#233;lio: &#8220;Sucesso &#233; resultado positivo; &#234;xito; prosperidade. O sucesso &#233; o estado de obter um resultado feliz ou satisfat&#243;rio em algo.&#8221; Te falei, sucesso &#233; subjetivo&#8230; Mas pra mim &#233; coisa simples.</p>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[Luz rechazada]]></title><description><![CDATA[Alguna vez fui mariposa,]]></description><link>https://www.thebookishman.com/p/luz-rechazada</link><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.thebookishman.com/p/luz-rechazada</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Daniela Rojas]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 01 May 2026 10:03:25 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/66c7bbca-8193-453d-a99b-a3856850a15e_1280x720.png" length="0" type="image/jpeg"/><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Alguna vez fui mariposa,<br>un manojo de luz en vuelo.<br>Fui fuerza y fragilidad<br>hechas escamas.</p><p>Tambi&#233;n fui pluma,<br>un pu&#241;ado de color<br>destinado a ser despojo.</p><p>Pero ca&#237;.</p><p>Ni como mariposa,<br>ni como pluma,<br>como cae una hoja seca<br>en medio del oto&#241;o.</p><p>Ca&#237;.</p><p>No soy m&#225;s que<br>luz rechazada.</p><p>En el suelo,<br>aguardando el golpe del viento,<br>o la fuerza de los pies.</p><p>Me desintegro.</p><p>Pero a&#250;n hay luz.</p><p>Para que brillen otras mariposas.<br>Para que m&#225;s plumas<br>permanezcan en el viento.</p><p>Y entonces,<br>cu&#225;nta belleza hay en la ca&#237;da.</p>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[Maybe, in Motion]]></title><description><![CDATA[Maybe love is not a place we arrive at, but a series of small movements toward each other.]]></description><link>https://www.thebookishman.com/p/maybe-in-motion</link><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.thebookishman.com/p/maybe-in-motion</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Coral Sharma]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 01 May 2026 10:03:22 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/c15b50c0-345f-4dff-a8c5-487d837775e8_1280x720.png" length="0" type="image/jpeg"/><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Maybe love is not a place we arrive at, but a series of small movements toward each other.<br>A chair pulled closer.<br>A silence that does not ache.<br>Fingers learning the geography of another hand.</p><p>Maybe, one evening, we will sit side by side watching the sun dissolve into something softer. Not speaking, not needing to, just existing in the quiet migration from strangers to something unnamed. And maybe I will tell you about the fracture. Not just the bone that broke, but the way time slowed around it, how pain taught me the language of waiting. You might laugh, gently, and offer me a story of your own. About the first time your heart leaned toward someone who did not stay.</p><p>We will map our pasts like constellations, connecting what hurt to what healed.<br>If the rain comes, let it. Let it interrupt us mid-sentence. Let it rewrite the evening. Hold me not like a promise of forever, but like a moment that chooses to stay, despite knowing it does not have to.<br>Tell me I am still beautiful, not as reassurance, but as recognition. As if you are discovering it in real time.</p><p>Maybe we will move again. Through crowded streets, through laughter that spills too easily, through a night at a theme park where everything spins and glows and we forget, briefly, how heavy the world can be.</p><p>Or maybe we will just dance. Not to music, but to the rhythm of rain against borrowed time. <br>And in that movement, between what was, what is, and what might never be, we will find something quieter than forever, but far more honest.<br>A moment that chose us back.</p><p>Maybe.</p>]]></content:encoded></item></channel></rss>
