The musings of a lost soul
I can’t breathe.
Their insidious gaze is suffocating.
Peace is a distant reality.
The realm I’m in is a colorful chaos.
The steps I take in sync with the tortoise.
The winding staircase changing directions.
The past in conjunction with the future.
My present is plotting.
My night dreams and day mares.
Breaths abated.
Time is strange.
Clocks are laughing at me.
I am surrounded by love.
Why can’t I accept my fate?
I am good.
I have bad.
I’ve regretted.
I am loved.
Heroes and villains are part of my story.
I have stood above.
I have been cast aside.
I play a part with too many expectations.
I seek comfort.
I have experienced pain.
I elevate others and in turn I feel pleasure.
Rewind the process and I start over.
My brain is a blessing.
My body is temporary.
My actions hold impact.
In the grand scheme of the universe my life holds little significance.
The thoughts won’t ever stop till my last heartbeat.
Breathing is a chore.
Smiling at every soul.
Knowing bits of puzzle pieces.
I may never see the full picture.
I embrace life because death is inevitable.
Happiness is an elusive butterfly.
Don’t trap it, fly alongside the colorful wings.
Weather is unpredictable, turbulence ahead.
Let go of the uncertainty.
Embrace the backseat.
Blink a few times and reset.
The undefined holds hands with the labeled.
Screaming in a box alongside every trapped soul.
Many questions for the creator.
The creations are suffering and You are a bystander.
I will never stop questioning everything I know.
My heart holds the loss of every moment.
The damnation of the undesirables.
Repression at its finest.
Growth is painful but without it life descends into unimaginable depths.
The reclaiming of my own destiny.
Transformation in progress…
