life
visions of suicide, occupy my mind; most folks look to the future-i'm thinking about tonight;
discouraged by what i see, going on in life; i want to believe in peace, but people like me die....
looking for some kind of high to get by; im feeling hopeless like tupac said in his rhymes
if you're not a busy body working a 9 to 5; then you're not counted amongst those whom are alive....
treated as such, when you're not wanting for much; everything...

internal
in touch, yet out of touch; attached, yet dettached.... it's as if the only thing that seems to make sense is getting wasted within one's solidarity....
and being taken for a ride.... spiraling within one's mind....
i feel like Nicolas cage from Leaving Las Vegas.... wasting away in alcohol.... in tears.... like why the hell must I be here....

decorated wasteland
as one breathes debris-one feels and sees the grief for what it is, as it proceeds; me; one just lives to cherish each little treat recieved in the land of temporary....
much dis-ease one's heart recieves; i'm disensitized beyond belief....swaying scales between torment & peace in this decorated wasteland....
i cope....

Souls from another world
as i lay and stare into space; there's got to be someone like me out there practically feeling the same way; someone whom with one could make a great escape from this masquerade;
upon meeting our heartbeats racing at a similar pace; sharing the ability to captavate one another despite the mountains, pits, and valleys in our way....
talking more than just the capacity to resonate; sounds like the kind of stuff one could only imaginate; wanting to disappear with ? and start a clean slate....

"promise land"
i fantasize about a "perfect" environment; where it's easier to socialize and get along.... where isolation would be by choice; where one is embraced with open arms....
some where within reach; where one wouldn't have to travel so far or especially over seas.... i fantasize about this frequently....where comradary/intamacy came easily-instead of like pulling teeth....
no worries; where one could settle peacefully; where one's soul feels free; that if there's "overseers" of the community-one wouldn't feel on a leash or subjective to...

social misfit
i don't want to stand out; i don't care for large crowds; there's not much to talk about; therefore who would stick around?
i don't really get out; when i go to get out; im just filled with many doubts; like, i should go and lay back down
i would like to vibe out; maybe even "hideout"; i prefer a low profile; otherwise I'm tired out; doesn't mean I'm not aroused
i don't want to die down; wanting to be felt sound; i don't want-to feel tied down....
wish...

bliss with a mushy twist
I'm all for some bliss with a mushy twist....
tinted lights; I'd personally like to go with a dark blue; her on top of me-i'd admire her "body work"-tattoos(wordplay); her hair smells of a fruit mix shampoo....
I'd like to get lost in you; time? what's that? we don't have a clue; drowning in the bliss like the deep blue;
tinted lights; now you choose; what's your favorite color in our escape room? I just want to stay here; and screw....screw the daylight and the nightlife-this room-there's nothing quite like.......

what's the difference?(between the lines prt2)
I'm not a poetic genius; I'd like to think I could be; perhaps pursue a career to make some money....
move to another place-like another country.... but see my disposition and overall mindset won't allow that to be....
....
though anyway a question presents itself to me? what's the difference between...."staying home" or trying a "different country"; because from what I've seen there's not much a difference on the "other side of the world"

between the lines....
not sure how to begin; not sure what to say.... but.... when it comes to certain subjects.... I am not brave....
what am I talking about? what do I mean? these are boundary lines that must be read in between....
*sighs*
not sure how to continue.... and what difference it will make.... but expressing it plain is a reason to internally shake....
the feeling is bone chilling, like a cold windy day; and unable to ever find "shelter"...

when i walk
i am not one with my body; every time I get up and move, it's like I'm drifting about....
it doesn't completely prevent certain things that I need to do but.... it's not a feeling of "life".... it's like.... being stuck in a flightylike state....
I'm not completely numb, and there's practically a desperate need to intimately connect....

"unreal"
ain't no love in the heart of the city"🎶🎶....
this experience feels so unreal....
I know I'm not insane; I look around and observe reflections of my pain; this life thing-this game; how every day's the same; it's a strain just to greet a woman and ask her what's her name....
this life thing; it's about occupation, reputation, status, money, security to your name; and you're considered "nothing" if you're lacking in any of these things....

the realm(diaries)
another day above ground.... cool.
this is the realm, where tomorrows are nothing but an extension;
the superficial living.... nothing but a facade....
this is the apocalypse covered in pretensions....
there's only hours and minutes.... going to try to keep calm while some of the other living are tripping....
taking one's time while grabbing one's pickings; walking through one's "journey" with tunnel vision....
