Stiffen your upper lip ( Therapy session 2 )

No pity parties

Just thought provoking discussions

Plotting and pondering

on how to deal with my repercussions

Accepting responsibility

Focusing on my main objective

Don't let your failures determine your future

when it comes to words and actions 

may you be more selective

As the days pass and you continue to mope

and do nothing but rely on false hope 

You will fade away into the box you've placed your self in

Stiffen  your upper lip and don't let your doubts win 

I'm not being unrealistic

I have cuddled with emotion

but comfort is an enemy

when it comes to forward motion

Trying to be simplistic 

in a world that is so abstract

Have faith and be rational

do not let your fears or what you hear hold you back 

Because as the days pass and you continue to mope

and do nothing but rely on false hope 

You will fade away into the box you've placed your self in

Stiffen your upper lip and don't let your doubts win 

                                                                                                                                                           B.W

Everybody wants to be famous nowadays

Not everybody needs to know ( Therapy session 1)

Don't share your thoughts

or speak on what you do 

sometimes its safer

that your therapist is you

Not everybody needs to know

because not everybody will care

Sometimes they just want to talk what they hear

but soon you'll see

Save the expression for your art

and don't ask for anyone's advice on how it looks

because it looks like you 

and within you they're not a part 

Not everybody needs to know

because not everybody will care

sometimes they just want to talk what they hear

but soon you'll see 

How often do we come upon someone who is loyal to their core

or do we encounter those who will use us to get their foot through the door

Nothing wrong with being vulnerable and putting your trust into another

but there's something wrong when your naive

and think everyone is only here to be your friend or your lover

Let your eyes have vision

let your heart be blind

because the virtuous are dying in this world

for being far too kind

Not everybody needs to know

because not everybody will care

sometimes they just want to talk what they hear

but soon you'll see

Black friday

People's attachments to objects are a little sickening. There is no product worth fighting till death in public over.

I can't believe no one finds it ridiculous that people are physically harming each other over a sale that occurs yearly.

Though it's just words, its not just words.

Violence doesn't cease violence. Let's be logical.

Sadly

Well, someone has to be on top and someone has to be on the bottom.

Aliens ?

How could you ?

Kept your secrets

Believed your lies

Gave you a home

You were never alone

Now here I am completely in complete shock 

because after all of that you chose to walk

Different is just so beautiful

Desireless

No home
No water or food
Not enough sleep
And you still walk

No mother
No friendship
No form of love
And it's what you still talk

Not enough to survive
Not enough to ever excel
Nothing but sorrow
And you still treat people well

They have it all
More then they could ever imagine
Yet wickedness is what they always yell

What they did with being privileged will lead to their defeat
It's amazing they had the dream
And you out of all survived walking with no shoes on your feet.

I thought I wanted the answers, now I don't.

Instead of committing suicide, he found purpose. Believe it or not it was love.

Beauty  comes in many forms , you just have to be willing to see it.

Simple solution

Stop selling guns, and kids don't do drugs.

Believe it or not

Art can be made out of that misery you've been experiencing for most of your life.

On the Go

I want to go down like the sun 

and rise in different places

Turn like the earth does

Always see different faces

There's a cloud over my head

I feel gloomy

because I need new sensations

can't get that from those who know me

This  area knows me far to well

and I know the ins and outs 

Sees me weekly walking at night

She always hears what i'm crying about

I'm tired of venting to her

I would like to talk to someone else

Maybe the'll show me something different

and that sight might help

Somewhere new to sleep

Somewhere new to always go

I'm to young to settle

when I'm old i'll get a home

Maybe its because i'm young

why I hate things that are familiar

Life is an amusement park

the spontaneous does not like what is linear

and so I Hate rides that feel the same

that's why when you called again 

I never came

That's a warning you should never trust

Those whom sit and ponder

about their wanderlust 

because they'll never belong to anyone 

they're free spirits they cannot stay still

doing so would probably kill 

their imagination and what's left of their soul

They worship nature

The elements is what keeps them whole

We apologize but we need to be on the go

B.W

Stop thinking you can fix someone.

Society : kindly refrain from speaking your mind, having your own beliefs that differ from majority , and oh no need to have your  own identity please just be like everyone else. Makes it easier for us to control.

The violence has always and will always be unnecessary.

Faceless

as I sit here and I ponder.

Creative arts is what do with what I wonder.

Then I move.

I'm an angel in all black and he's a devil in all white

it is so easy to be everybody but yourself.

Forget the time/ I don't like numbers.

I don't want to be timed

I don't want a number

I don't want a room

I just want room

in whatever part of the world

because the world is meant for all

you could remove all the lines

Free the people from behind the wall

Who's keep tracking of all of this

Why are those factors essential to determine if we exist ?

Why is life that was given with a gift of free will seem so organized ?

Why is a man that can do whatever I can do above me ?

I was misled and I just realized

Because of stuff that I helped create that he took no process in

but stood above processing

Now i'm a pacifist

Silent activist

A dazed being

who's finally seeing

The playground that was created for all kinds

Is now a war zone

filled with soulless bodies and corrupt minds

Forget the time

I don't like numbers they limit

I don't like lines they block me

All of that put in place to taunt me

live without the time, numbers and you'll be free

Why man decided to declare this playground a war zone will always leave me dazed

Cause of stress because of sinful actions. Karma well deserved I supposed.

Keep giving yourself away because of the belief that you have no value.

lust , lust , lust and more lust.

A deity that demands bodies at its feet only comes from the cruel perception of a man's mind.

How can I take you seriously when you worship people who are popular online

What you thought was a waste of time may have just been the defining moment of your life.

Let me not die by societies cruel ways but in the sky.

Views of Nature

There's sight in the sun

There's a melody in the wind

There's an image in the sky

There's a gift in the flowers

And in the water there's lives. 

                                                                         B.W

In touch again.

I'm just a pacifist who's trying to discover a place to inhabit where no man knows of.

Maybe we should have never drawn lines  to separate ourselves in the beginning.

The world is big enough for everyone to live in.

Feel as if there's a few including myself who only operate on the terms if you truly love someone you would not say or do certain things, despite the heat of the moment. Oh well.

Modern Version of Gods.

Man really believes he is a God

with all the destruction he has caused

the money

Lust,

greed ,and

violence

that he promotes

careless about the deceased bodies in the water

as long as his boat floats. 

Our modern version of Gods

Trying to reason emotion is a waste of time to those who base everything solely off of logic.

Don't kick the person who taught you how to tie your shoelaces.

Stop building off of others and have your own interpretation on what you perceive daily.

Writing again.

Food for the soul is good and bad for the heart. A little stressful for the mind. Regardless. Thank you God for the Art. 

Escaped. Found. Repeat

Appreciate each opportunity , just don't settle for any unless it's what you want.

Everyone's eyes are wide shut

Don't belittle your own to praise another that isn't even fond of you. Silly

Competing for a non existent trophy, and living not freely is pretty much what life has been about so far.

Oh God. Not robots

There are so many issues going on that I almost got distracted from the bigger picture. They're stupidity almost got me.

How could you possibly dislike someone  who's raising awareness and taking action on issues that everyone chooses to ignore ? People are weird. You cannot pick and choose what issues matters and don't.

People are trying to eliminate certain historical events so they can accuse one of being delusional. Some people are trying to eliminate certain groups history so they can removed their accomplishments , and creations all so they can justify that they are worthless. This world is cruel but what can you do.

Humans are bored.

Toxic relationships are the norm
monogamy no longer exist
our stretch for removing societal conventions is costing us our fictional values

I don't think we know what were trying to escape
but were raging a war
just because

She has nothing to say
but she'll say
say on what she knows not

They say there is a bigger picture but there isn't
even if we learn more of what is deemed as unknown
were just bored on land

She knows that
but thinks otherwise
then preaches falsity

We created to create
made a mess
with free will
because were bored

There was nothing to do at our original position
when language didn't exist
when it was anarchy

we were bored.

Such dramatic , vulnerable , attention seeking , and whiny individuals we are.
We really created something out of nothing
Pure unnecessary chaos.

I'm bored
so sadly i'm affected
none of this makes any sense.

When they're not interested in why you don't do certain things but are interested in showing you new things

You might want to gain some knowledge rather than depend solely on your looks. Walking unaware nowadays is silly.

Don't ever insult the original. Your ideas derived from it and you would have not had one if it didn't exist.

Good intentions are no longer enough to justify anything

As you gain knowledge your views change , so why people overreact when one's opinion on a matter differs from what they previously stated leaves me confused.

Alot of beautiful things are occurring in the U.S along with ugliness. At least progress is taking place.

On my way down I almost crashed into Superman

Could never associate with anyone who is racist or homophobic. Too much going on in life to be worried about what others do or what they are. Waste of time.

Took years to allow people to be the way they were born but congrats. Progress.

I never speak of what I know I cannot possess nor should you.

I hate Fox News

All races could have gotten along but nope there always has to be someone who's dominant and someone who's oppressed.

Lately they remind me of he, who reminds me of she and she reminds me of them.

Avoiding interaction with anyone who shares the slightest resemblance of anyone I know. Nothing to do with wanting someone new , just prefer different.

I'm a pacifist. Sort of.

These past 3 years I've just been trying to free all the animals from the zoo.

Life sucks, but someone else is worse off at the moment.

Sad that common advice given nowadays is to not invest all into one individual. I wonder what love is then to the majority ? I always thought that was the whole point.

She was denied at the nunnery. Who will she  turn to if not the church ?

Colorfully blunt

I'm bewilderingly enlightened 

bravely frightened

as I draw my sword 

to attack on titan

more anime to escape shows that portray modern society reality

rather watch fictional Asian made characters then silly bestiality 

I created a false world makes sense to delude myself 

tell the corrupted politicians with their lies I don't need their help

I've been trying to read but the books have no guide

I need to get lost in a land of bliss but I need money to hide

You want a comfortable life ? They advise you to go to school

Don't hire you but allow celebrities with no education to speak on world issues 

now the graduate in depth looks like a fool 

oh me oh my what have I done ?

I've been hit with so much problems

and I haven't even hit age  twenty-one 

I'll be working my whole life probably won't even be able to be retired

this is what I get for being a moral individual

meanwhile Fifa employees are having money illegally wired

you inhuman degenerate greedy schmuck

I don't how you prosper but 

when it comes to the natural law of karma 

I wish you the best of luck

Logic does not go with emotion

Go outside.

Sadly I'll return back to my old ways since I can't seem get a glimpse of the happiness in the old days.

Too much Sin

There's too much Eves in our Garden
and snakes standing by
while a new Adam falls for the fruit that meets his eye

There's too much sin in this world

I see nothing get better
Everything is worst
The myth was right that man birthed evil
and now were eternally cursed

There's too much sin in this world

Do not spare the rod from the child
Let thy be disciplined
Or he'll grow to be a weed that is wild
and wherever he walks on grass he'll spread sin

There's too much sin in this world

Maybe Jesus should walk back on the water
down from the heavens
and save us from selfish who rule
and once again be our lucky seven

because there's too much sin in this world

No one is asking for forgiveness
No one  even believes
you're loosing twice the followers
then  one looses when she becomes an activist with those  feminist tweets

There's too much sin in this world

I'd give a hand to help
but i'm usually ignored
no one pays attention to the teammate
unless he or she scored
and I haven't done that for a while
in fact all I do is read
Curse under my breath about majority of the population
because there so caught up in social media, lust and greed
but I acknowledge the obvious
I'm not oblivious that were going down hill
I sit and listen to lauryn
my soul collects the colors from her harmonies  that she spills
my brain storms
and my heart thumps
I know I sin to but then I pray
and  those become  minor bumps

There's too much sin in this world
but nobody cares
I just wrote about it
to make the wanderers  aware
Hi to those who wanderlust
I have no solution
but trust I am no republican in denial about climate change
who say more damage to our earth , more pollution
That was an analogy , my fault if I cause confusion
I'm just saying I speak truth and don't draw illusions
Now i'm rambling, forgive me
Someone be serious
Save our world
and don't kid me


                                                                                                                                                        B.W

The worst thing about communicating nowadays is everyone always tries to outsmart you in a conversation rather than actually listen

Born into lies and we just might die with the truth.

Favours that come with a cost are not favours .

Anti-violence

I never understood how one could hit someone and see bloodshed and not feel at least a little guilt or inhumae. Violence is a monstrous act , specifically fixating on violence that derives from petty situations and minor disagreements. Easier said then done since we all have a temper but we are also capable of communication and reasoning. Those two things should be put to use more.

I don't want to die because the government refuses to acknowledge climate change as a serious situation and continuously denies that it is real. Lame way to leave this life.

Bye

Lies out of your mouth

greed in your eyes

profit in your actions

You're what I despise

Confucius said we lack benevolence

I also think were to focused on relevance

Actual issues don't get enough recognition

The most selfish beings are in the highest positions

and there's no way to fix

something that has specific design

tell the religious to stop praying

it's a waste of time 

when this is just nature

could have cultivated our character for the best of all

but only work towards what's in our favor

and...

Just say bye to humanity

There is one country in this world that I consider the garden of Eden. Where sin began and there's no way of ending it.

The more aware the more depressed

Naked Truth

I don't think you have to  follow a religion 

Just so you can make a moral decision

I don't think you have to study science

to know were using natural resources a little to much for our personal appliance

I don't think you have to study philosophy

to see the evil that derived after we entered a contract to build this society

Everyone that happens here is obvious

That's the naked truth.

Tired of worrying about everything that I was told I don't have to worry about.

In other news, be quiet

I ensure you that someone who wants an opinion will state that they want you to give an opinion until then keep it to yourself

The feeling of being an outcast brings great joy to me. I couldn't imagine fitting in with someone who copies celebrities, and doesn't have a damn clue about anything that's going on in this world that they themselves live in.

so called love

Saw right through your confidence
Got ahold of your insecurities.
Had your head on your shoulders
Now your palms are to your face as you are on your knees.
Look at what your loved ones do

Nothing worst then being alone and not being able to escape the thoughts and pain you feel. Isolation is a bitch.

You want to understand the ways of the world so you can help,  but deny the reality of how this society functions and harms it. Nothing can be done with that mentality

Buddhist got there without LSD, you can as well.

I believe in the tooth fairy , I don't care what anyone says.

Wow celebrities are so distracting ...for the idiots

I'll pay the dues that I owe to you

What people will say to keep you around
Compared to what they will do.

Just ignore.

you know those guys who continuously express their hatred for women by degrading them all the time ? Yet they don't like guys ? Don't get offended by their remarks. He's single , will remain single and sooner or later he'll notice that he's going to need a woman. We all notice eventually that Love is one of the greatest things in life. The loneliest man who sits their with all his money will tell you that right before he dies.

Are they there when you need them ? Do they tell you the truth ? If not why do they still surround you.

Screw social conventions. Turning into a cynic.

Once said before. It's so much easier to control people when they all act the same. Be yourself. You're different from others. We all are. Confuse the ones who crave power and dominance.

Sometimes I want to tell people that's wrong but then I forget we all interpret things differently and you should allow one to freely think for themselves

you're welcomed to every fruit in the Garden is the biggest lie I've ever been told.

Grow up.

There are problems in the world that deserve more attention then Tom or Katie getting drunk at a party.

How to take those in your life seriously who just choose to be blind to all the problems in this world ? Don't. Say goodbye.

A lot of black artist only speak out about race when their career is being affected if not they behave invincible because they believe money protects them from the harsh realities in this world.

I wonder about those who believe they have all the answers regarding the corruption within the government , what would you do if you were in power ? I'm under the impression that majority of those who go into politics have high hopes of making a difference until they learn the reality of it all and see that they cannot. I have no faith in the current president or the next and the one after that. They're job is to calmly deliver speeches on how everyone in the country is about to get fucked over next.

I did almost everything wrong in life and I have no intentions on attempting to fix it. Focus on the present. Focused on what I have the will to change now. Thank God for the Stoics.

I'll learn to love all of you

You don't have to behave any way. If you're just you and its a quality I may have not thought I would like. I would still appreciate it and learn to love it because it's you.

Difference brought a beautiful disaster, Disaster to those who claim to be for us but are out for their own personal interest. Beauty because those who are different see and are aware

The messages that are misinterpreted and ridiculed are the ones everyone is in denial about

The butterfly that escaped the spider's web - one piece

That's just reality.

I respect her. As she sat on my bed and read the poetry of a boy that's in our class. She read it in a comedic way. She sought to humiliate him , she didn't even understand what he was writing about. She even mentioned that she had already told her other friends about this. They described him as weird and such. I sat there and corrected her on one of his poems , informing her that's not what he meant. She didn't care. I didn't join making a mockery of him and that I applauded myself for , but I didn't defend him. Instead I attempted to escape it by jokingly saying that she secretly adores him and just refuses to admit it. She obviously denied. As I sat there listening to her I wondered what exactly is so wrong with expressing yourself and calling it poetry ? Why is  that something people find humiliating or lame ? Why is something that is a form of art so unpopular to this new age ? I didn't understand. I thought well well what if she knew that very thing ( poetry ) is what I myself write Every night. Poetry is what helps me express what I wouldn't usually say out loud. Its my personal therapeutic savior from all of this bullshit that exist nowadays. My feelings , thoughts, beliefs everything put into words in a rhymethic form that reminds me of who I am as an individual and separates from everyone else. I could care less about opinions because it isnt written for an opinion it's written for stability, realization, and beauty that is within. What if she knew all that ? Would she then too insult me , or tell others about me ? I wonder. Then again maybe you have to look deeper into the situation. She could admire it, but others judgments has altered her own opinion. Which is sad but that is the sick reality of most people my age these days. If its not popular kill it, if everyone else is doing it praise it. Sucks.

The uncertainty is what makes life so painful and beautiful at the same time.

I seriously believe if a you take from a man you are going to end up owing him a lot more then you expected. Get it on your own. Don't be dependent. That's why women fought for rights.

Mind Anxiety

I'm feeling slightly drowsy. 

My head is overcrowded with unwanted fans

unneeded thoughts

that just constantly spam 

and have a temper when I ignore 

refuse to answer

but they keep knocking on my door

I might have overdose on this medicine

Supposed to be healthy to reflect

but it's just toxins that were let in 

Was already aware of when I wronged 

Pinged it at the moment don't need it ponged 

Losing sleep

Losing weight

Stay in the sea 

don't swim towards the bait

pain is  worth the pleasure you receive when you wait

Apparently

The wise man said those words 

as he approached the fruit daringly

My head continues to ache

It's true you learn more about yourself when at the lowest

because different parts of you begin to wake

Mind anxiety

seek the true pleasure that is natural and be content

but your desires don't leave they wait quietly

Substitution 

or am in denial and decided to suppress

Mind anxiety always catches back up

when I leave my theories at home

and i'm in public undressed

The Nun who left

You'd be a liar if you said you've never been tempted. That thoughts that man labeled immoral have never crossed your mind. The same man that despises these desires created them. The same nun who has chosen to live her life according to the bible has dreamt of the very sins she ought not to commit. Oh but she longs for what she is taught to resist. She wonders sometimes if she is missing anything in this life. Then quickly punishes herself , for to exist means to be good and then to not is to enter God's kingdom. Yet she  thinks to herself, God knew we would sin, which is why asking for forgiveness exist , is it not ? Then can I not just bite but a piece off the fruit off ? I've never wronged anyone , not physically or emotionally. Nor would I want to despite what has been done to me. The nun looks up , my journey has not been traveled. I haven't even started. I've never left the church. Every aspect of my life exist within the church. I'm so very thankful for what the church has done for me , but something is missing. I don't want to die in the church father. I no longer want to live in the church father. What have I achieved in the church ? I pray, I eat, attend services, and repeat. There's more to life , and who's to say that what is more to life must be considered sinful ? Fear overcomes the nun. She slowly walks backwards. These thoughts ..are they evil ? Will I still go to heaven ? If another were to hear oh how they would damn me. You've never judged me. You've always loved me. Would you follow me ? Let me see beyond these doors and still accept me. I should leave. Without a word. They would not understand. They live this life not out of love but for a reward. Who's worst ? The atheist who's become so due to this religion but acts kindly out of love and is good , or the religious whom claims to follow in your steps but does wrong though they are aware ? To be good because it is right is what I believe. Sickening that some are entrapped due to wanting to remain alive but are not living. I confess as I undress, I am the nun who will leave the church. Still live by my God but no religion. The nun lived in the church with fear and left feeling empowered. Blinded and left with sight.

I just want to create something that I think is beautiful and not what society has labeled beauty to be.

Crying for the U.S because you're next president will probably be shittttttt and the  next,

Whoever we believe is in charge is not on charge. Tell us to vote for someone who makes claims yet isn't allowed to act upon them without permission and is usually denied. Ya thank you so much for democracy.

Does having faith and believing there's a solution for every problem that comes along discourage emotions that would usually be present ?

Don't be so concerned with other's lives when they could not care less about yours.

See it for yourself

You should approach life with caution, but at the same time playing it safe makes you blind to so many opportunities and the real purpose of living. The journey that we all set on , can only be properly enjoyed when guided by your own choices. Living life according to the way you want it to be rather then what others want for you is important. You will always encounter problems along the way, some fear those problems and want to avoid it. Everything that occurs in life is A learning experience that shapes you and shows the beauty within yourself. It helps you grow. Avoiding problems would make more sense and listening to those who think they have the answers may seem smart  but they themselves are still as lost as you are. Everyone is on the same page regardless of the amount of money, or career, or anything else that many may think define them or think has made their life complete. There are countless of guides to happiness, and multiple theories. That's great to use sometimes to better yourself and avoid certain bad characteristics , karma, ect. It's all lovely but no man should live according to a book made by another man. You have free will for a reason why give it away just because of fear ? Your journey is not supposed to be perfect , but when you keep moving , aging and actually reflect on all the events that have occurred in your life you find a certain beauty. The beauty is not only in accomplishments, but failure. I've noticed there's no beauty in structure. Structure, and order lacks beauty compared to a a forest filled with different colors. The forest that's filled with colors that represent happiness, and sadness. Dead plants, blooming flowers, full grown flowers, mud, beautiful streams, cut down trees, huge trees. I'm just attempting to give a detailed visualization of this forest that's filled with misery and bliss at the same time but is still a masterpiece of art when you look at it from a far. It tells a wonderful story. The story is based off of experience. The forest was created by your personal experiences that in the end is filled with so much color and beauty. You should seek everything for yourself. Don't completely remove theoretical knowledge, but remember that sensual experience is required in this life that we live. Reason cannot always guide you to happiness. Have a balance of both. I just feel a lot have forgotten that. The answer was always better received when foound not given.

See for yourself

Can't believe in other parts of the world people are still being beheaded.

You think twice because  the actions happens once

I really don't care. I only put on clothes because I know when I leave my room it is not socially accepted to be nude.

Fiction

Fiction is needed because it represents what we ideally want to be like and want in life.
It's this sense of hope with morals that you learn along the way as you flip through each page.

You never know the extreme lengths someone will go through to get back at you, so it's best not to do any wrong towards anyone. I just learned that.

Not going to bed hungry but going to bed without other things.

You are beyond disgusting if you abuse animals for the fun of it.

At last , Love

I saw what you prayed for

and I saw what you will receive.

Because I work to be all that you ask for

so in love you continue to believe. 

Before any decision is made, I put myself in your shoes.

Despite that we are inherently fallible no mistake will cause me to lose. 

I've seen you cry and wish for death

after giving your heart and soul just to be left. 

I couldn't imagine dealing with such pain

so I became more understanding as into why you're always insecure and complain.

Sometimes I wonder if I am ready for this ride

When just yesterday I viewed emotions as weak and my feelings I always chose to hide

This journey that you and I now walk on together has taught me some valuable lessons

The lack of love and me denying it's existence turned out to be my biggest blessing. 

How odd that we ignore what we need 

So fixated on surviving in this world or our desires leading us to greed

I thank God that I can now see the light at the end of the cave and finally caved

Love kept us human in the world of evil, so  because of you I've been saved. 

My sky was starless and now there all I see

I always created art reflecting passionate emotion  and now my  masterpiece is what we'll be.

So I thank you for coming into my life

and I hope for you to stay

I'm so thankful that the melody to love 

are the keys I can finally play.

Thank you God

Social media taints everyone's judgment on other individuals or specific groups.Only the knowledgeable knows better while the ignorant continues the ignorance.

I still can't get over the fact that people actually worship other people, 'celebrities' to be specific. I find it strange.

You

Those days where you just don't feel like yourself. Not only that but you don't feel at all. Maybe the path of uncertainty and you believing that you're not weak minded is all beginning to shatter right before you. Due to that you're in a state on confusion , which is causing you to be angry while lost. Being angry and lost is the worst. Letting the heat of the moment get the best of you.Releasing frustration in every direction not knowing where each road will lead you too, and what consequence is waiting for you at the end of it. You can't speak to anyone because they can't understand. It's relatable but they don't actually understand. The effect is different. Luckily you acknowledged what's happening to you. The changes that are taking place, thank God it's not permanent. Thank God for awareness. Capable of acknowledging that that's not you. Ill words, careless attitude, the cigarettes that you wouldn't smoke but are in your pocket. You thought you no longer wanted a conscience, and emotions. Now those both things are what you want to be in touch with. Now you want to cry. Now you know that tears are important. You want to have faith in something as well. Not for security, not for rewards or to avoid punishment, but faith in something that is good or faith that there is a good. Yeah now all of that is wanted. You don't like what you've  become even though you drew that picture of yourself. You like what you were. What you were is what no one else is. There's no other individual that exist that is like you. You didn't need to blend. You didn't need the attention. No. Nope. Not the clothes ether. You just needed to be you. You could take you up the ladder. Go up the ladder not knowing where it leads you to or what you'll get. That sounds like you. You sound good. Be you.

You don't know what you think you know, because there's always more to it.

what would happen to those who are rich if they had their money taken away from them ?

Don't learn about yourself through somebody else.

Assuming that it's an exaggeration, but its just much deeper then what the individual is choosing to view it as.

The worst

I think of what you've become
and it's all because of what I've done.

I shaped you for the worst

Now everyone you meet you can't trust
You no longer live for love , you live to lust
I shaped you for the worst

You don't believe that anyone is genuine
You fear having sentiments
I shaped you for the worst

I could say I taught you a lesson
Heartbreak is your new weapon
I shaped you for the worst

Swallowed by the Sea

I wore a black cape as I drowned in my red
Sometimes I think of possibilities and where the outcomes could have led

Everything is done in the spur of the moment

I never think it through
I don't walk on the beach
I get swallowed by the blue
I don't wear a safety jacket
I like to get to the bottom of the sea
That's how I've been swimming
My personal philosophy

I hate it when my feet is in the sand
everything I built there
gets touched by another's hand

But I can't be found when I cross over to the deep end

I'm all alone
in the underworld with sea creatures and Gods
as they determine my karma
I hear demons screams and sobs
I'm not a saint I can't escape the cycle of life
and head to nirvana
I'm on and off with narcotics , sex and
 forget my Buddhism teachings of Theravada

I wore a black cape as I drowned in my red
Sometimes I think of possibilities and where the outcomes could have led
Before I'm swallowed by the sea , reincarnated and the old me is dead

Why don't Buddhist understand that their  desire of reaching enlightenment or nirvana , and having knowledge is showing that they have a self ? It's within human nature to want to know something. That is a desire. If desiring is the cause of suffering , and suffering derives from self , the Buddhist have a self because they desire knowledge , nirvana, and enlightenment. You've given yourself a goal and live by strict rules and teaching to get somewhere you WANT to be.

Indifferent Obsession

I'm obsessed with the denial of my obsession of you
I tell myself the constant want of conversation is simply because the relationship is new
You're the first to not write the answer to my questions on the board
We play hangman
so i'm always searching and never  bored

I time my response to every message received
I speak less but with more charm so every word is believed
I make sure that i'm sure to never act first
Let you fill my bottle with water so you never see my thirst

I don't know what's compelling
You're character is hidden
but the fruit that attracts the most is the one that is forbidden

But I'm no Adam and you're no eve
No snake is present to tempt
it's my eyes that deceive

God forgive me for I sin the deadly called lust
but I desire that you desire me
you're unemotional emotional presence is a must

So silly of me to wait for you.

Once Pure..

I had a cross
I had a bible
I had a God

I was pure
I was ambitious
As I walked with my rod

I would pray
I would eat
I would sleep


It was all fine until
I left the dessert
to work in the city

I saw reality
I saw lies
I saw evil

It was the institutions
It was the Government
It was the people

I tried to fight
I tried to hide
I tried to run

but I was caught and all the seven deadly sins got inside of me and became one.

Deception

I sometimes wonder how you allow yourself to live to please another
to deceive yourself
to truly live does not depend on acceptance and wealth

You'll soon learn or maybe not
in school they don't teach what needs to be taught
Media doesn't show reality
but shows you what needs to be bought

This world is turning in the wrong direction
but that's what expected when being directed by those with imperfections
Born with no fixed purpose or it's just unknown
So we strive to get all the answers with whatever we were given and take until it's gone

Maybe it's not necessarily our fault
we were given free will and bound to sin
morals were put into place to be universally followed
but were based on self interest so there's no way to win

I sometimes wonder how we allow ourselves to be controlled by what we created
You would die for Money that comes and goes
I think we forget that we cannot be regenerated
yet for our creations will battle and create foes

You'll soon learn or maybe not
in school they don't teach what needs to be taught
Media doesn't show reality
but shows you what needs to be bought

Hope for color

I wasn't born into this world to be a slave
nor do I know my purpose but I refuse to cave
to believe that my seed was planted to grow tall as a tree
but instead have my branches cut down by authoritative body

I'm aware of the contracts that took place
no need to plead your case
my freedom for security
but you break the laws you created that I oblige to but play the card of sincerity

nothing is ever fair
and for the youth I  shed a tear
not that old myself
but the younger ones need more help

Believe everything that they hear
Want everything that they see
That's everything that I fear
because them being themselves isn't accepted or mandatory  but just a possibility

I prefer multiple colors that's what makes the garden appealing
The color of your soul is the identity that they are stealing
but they they will never know
why swim in the deep end where you can drown
when you can be safe in the end where its shallow

There's still beauty on this earth
and despite the destruction we've caused ourselves
I just pray we find it's worth.

True Beauty

All those different colors formed beauty. 

Be colorful and different.

Philosophers who build theories based off bibiblical myths that are used as guides of morality should never get their stuff documented, when they insist to have it included within law

While Americans are so distracted by football there must be something else taking place. 

Every woman's garden is colorful and fruitful.

Toxic Love

My nights are your days
Your love is my sex
My memories is your life
Your emotions are my sidewalk
My presence is your dream
Your voice is my nightmare
My happiness is your purpose
without me you feel worthless.

The U.S is one of your fake friends. Never tells the truth and is always betraying you. Sheesh.

No one needs to know everything about you and No one should.

Socrates help

This year is going to be different. Different,  my favorite word. Similar and Same , two words I hate.

You're using philosophical theories to avoid life, not live it.

My ideal person is not actually what I want. That  should be unattainable.

My dreams are haunting me lately.

Don't be ignorant and attempt to place extremist as a mascot for a whole entire religion or culture.
That's silly. Grow up.

Morals

There is a lot of darkness in this world, but I've always fancied the right path that consist of struggle , tiresome , awareness and then success. Money isn't worth the years of haunting. I'll work and wait, instead of cheat and fall. What remains in the shadows should stay there. Walking in the light has always appealed more then getting lost in the dark and being blinded. I sin but my faith is in God, despite the fact that I dislike religion.
