"broken" "poet"
if only
if only; a single glance was all it took; if only;
if only; she'd see this open book; if only;
if only; she could heal the hurt; if only;
if only; she could touch my soul;
if only;
if only she could love my mind; if only;
if only she could feel my heart; if only-
a single glance is all it took,
to feel more than just her insides;
but that life is worth living because the love that's in her eyes

communication(real talk)
honestly; I'm personally not long winded; people say communication is key....am I the only one who doesn't care to hear myself speak....
I mean; there's not much to say; I mean really; if only we could communicate mostly nonverbally; although that usually comes along with time and chemistry....
but then again; who doesn't seek therapy? although; who doesn't seek to just simply be? especially if you're one who's not a fan of social "normacy"....
but what do I know? other than, being alone can really suck at times; yet stepping into...

Standards, & Expectations
when I see people ages 40+ alone; I think to myself; this is what I have to look forward to, in another dozen years; there's always those conversation starters like;
what do you do for a living, and what are your goals? as that inner voice reminds one; welcome to the human species....where there's shifty lines between practical and spontaneous....
I want to honestly say,"can we just enjoy this time and talk about other things?" but that could very likely kill the vibe....
there's always a line drawn in the sand; unlikely is there a...

art of living
the calendar is running; the sun is patiently waiting; the air is embracing one's lungs like compassionate endearing relations;
the water's inner working like an irreplacable soulmate; from head to toe; stimulated activation

Depression is my driving force to write
I feel we often over complicate things; poetry doesn't need to be written from a place of pain; but it happens like paper cuts and coffee stains;
the core of my personal motivation comes from pain.... I'd happily throw the whole book out, good and bad scraps....
writing for me is nothing more than a placeholder....for something better....

Bucket List
I think of the movie limitless;
how the protagonist's possibilities were infinite;
and a quarter of that ride would be more than enough for me
my thrill seeking interests only peaks but so high; I couldn't put a price on even less than half of an epic time;
I just want to be happy before I die; to feel; to actually feel alive;
to revive for a while, a spirit that once was paralysed;
the money one makes only buys more time; but I can't lie; I've appreciated some roses while alive; ambition is celebrated mainly at...

hallways full of doors
far stretched walk down a single hall; with doors of glass and crystal balls, sitting on a bedside tall; each room feels like you've seen them all....
a dream state feel; but yet so real, with goosebump chills and scent fresh painted walls.... a simulation vibe felt raw....
through these hallways full of many doors, of glass and labels on them all....
walking feet on floor, both bare;
the people more or less just stare; anxiety is in the air....in these hallways full of doors....

human museum
there's a term occasionally used; "hopeless romantic"; there's a yearning for connection sure, but I'm not that; I'm not alot of things; when I look out into the world.."I don't belong here" is something I'm almost certain of....
to put it metaphorically; the limbo stick describes peoples' interactions with one another.... the more you "exist" the higher the stick; the less you "exist" the lower the stick....
that's why dogs/pets are seen as "better" than "humans"....
life is an "art gallery".... your mind, body and soul framed...

moments are all there are.... math and science keep the earth spinning....did ok in math; slept through the science....
but none of it matters in the end of "the journey".. only the memories....

Why I drink
over 90% of what's taking place in the world is bullshit.... false illusions.... everyone is a "spiritual teacher" ....etc etc.
real talk.... artificial smiles; the truth is that most ppl are more or less miserable.... trying to make sense out of this life....I'm real enough to admit that I am....
I feel like a rebel; i don't care to be one....but it beats being stuck in a robotic mechanical mentality; I believe in something greater than what meets the eye and beyond comprehension of the human mind....
but I refuse to be...

I've been trying to do the "right thing"
it's like you literally have to want to be the center of attention one way or another; whether in denial or not.... this is the social conditioning from where I'm sitting; frustrated with what comes with being human; I've been trying to do "the right thing"; to be "decent"; to attract "decent".... it's as if your personality counts for nothing; finding someone to chill with is damn near impossible.... so much indifference....this place is so ridiculous *sighs* smh

mundane
variations of promotions;
from the physical to "spirituality";
today feels like last week;
last week felt like last month;
last month felt like last year;
like life is a series of brands rotating on repeat;
how much more mundane could it all be?
one's reaction is far from insensitivity to all of the ice cold, and boiling heat....but all I see is a merry-go-round, rollercoaster, mind numbing machine
sheesh....*sighs* smh😔
