Truth

"Normal" and "Insanity"- they're just words in the "english language" that someone created but "normal" and "insanity" are basically the same damn thing....

puzzling thoughts appear
becoming darker as night
i hope for morning

Delete

voice
tells me
in a whisper

die
die
die

for the benefit
of all living beings

die
die
die

for your own good

delete
your programme
pull the plug

a simple puppet  

look, I live on a hill
sometimes I can walk up it
but sometimes I can’t
help falling down

Pour your heart out

You are my hangup
You have so many issues
Less drugs, more writing

Aqua

no point to regrets
thrashing in a fetid swamp
swim in a clear pond

Infection

Infection runs cold in the bloodstream
Depleting
Destroying
Devouring
Deleting
My sense of self
Till there's nothing left

Sound Of Silence

where did my words go?


i can't even respond or start
conversations

unless it is needed
for work


i want to talk

but my words are all out

Eyes never lie

Dark circles surround
Gaping black holes
Filled with.....
Destruction
Depression
Death
A harrowing portrait
Reflected in the mirror
And everyone knows
Eyes never lie

Lotus

I think
there is nothing in my head

but pond water
and mud

but I have to remind myself

some of the most beautiful flowers

have grown in the mud

Trapped Within

The child inside is terrified
Misshapen intent
Quick to doubt
An injustice
Afraid to feel
A silent crime
Killing his mind
Stop wasting his time
Love and understanding
Vital to his fragile existence

hollow
