Not all flowers have thorns but roses do roses are special, they are beautiful just to the likes of you so many flowers are pretty but nothing compares to the aesthetic of roses and that's why they are aware. their thorns protect them they are born to fight but they keep us silent, cut our voices they make us die some people don't like roses or don't like their thorns they'll cut off their leaves because they aren't thorns and they'll cut down the thorns because nothing should be in the way of their love or so they say when they cut our thorns they are so proud but do they know they take the rain out of clouds? they break the spell, they obstruct the beauty sometimes they go ahead and just shoot me I wonder, I wonder oh dear rose of mine why you die, oh you die without your thorns sublime not all flowers are roses but none wishes to be for the life of a rose is as miserable as torture makes us be

Roses
The rain clouds are dragged over by invisible winds A storm. Raging, strong. Unstoppable Shivering Colder than ice, piercing through my body The rain is wetting my eyes The storm is controlling my heart Defeated Caught Imprisoned A world, a body My cage Strangers The clouds my fog Blind Blocked Drenched The body is nothing but an empty vessel Rats welcome Making themselves home Strangers Hijacked Nagging from the inside Just a puppet Only some skin and bones It is a waste I am Everything is useless Failure This is irreversible pain The body’s only filling. Never. Ending. Changes impossible The inside is dead Please help

Depression
The earth feels small, loosing size constantly as the sun lowers herself the world is immersed in her ****** streams of warmth. It is fading the sky becomes stronger, rocks us in the darkness of minor stars - so big, so far away. They matter so little It is far away, yet so big. We think of it as little. What do they think of us? Stars are suns But are they all the same? Millions are sweeping around the universes so big So hot Far away Looking small They are hiding their meaning .. You have to find it Do you want it? The stars are suns So small But they are big If we let them be If we explore their truth Do we mind the darkness around them? Do you see it? Our eyes are meant to find light We focus Nobody minds Nobody wants to find darkness We are all looking for another sun Lost in the cloak of darkness we want to escape from Shooting stars.

Optimism
The limp body laid on the floor Motionless Fairy lights outlined the cool form Impossible To move The weight too heavy Crushing The whole world the fairy lights are burning Body and light Will never touch And it stings It already burns But it cannot warm the body Different colours Different brightness Various behaviour Glowing Burning Blinding Fading they will all cease When time comes The scene is romantic - the consequence is not The bright success, expectations Failure The failure is in the middle Nobody talks about its darkness Lights are the hot topic.

Pressure
Sometimes I am naked and look at myself. My tan skin looks less brown than it looks grey like ashes; Perhaps it's grey like the burned cultures, the damages traditions and bombarded destinies. When I put my dark hand onto someone's fair skin I see the ashes and I'm reminded of histories we'll never get to cherish.

They say She says He says Some say “it“ but are do not mean well. You say “whatever“ And call yourself a bread A sandwich. You joke, you giggle. I make it real. Taking things serious, Taking things literal, Is a talent of mine. But the idea of identity It is a story of yours These pronouns Fresh like bread Wholesome like wheat Savory like heat They are just like you When nothing works When all feels wrong Sandwich will put a smile on you And you Might give a sandwich to sandwir A sandwich is sandwirs It is meant to be Sandwich Sandwir Sandwir Sandwirs And sandwichself The mania of grain and wheats Will never be gone

A Sandwich
I hear it Again and again I do not “function“ Like the rest Every day Is a battle Will I hurt? Will I move? Nonetheless, I have to function Even when I can‘t I eat pills For breakfast Like greed personified I swallow them - I do not chew. I eat pills like candy but how can I help it? My body is aching My muscles are trembling Is this addiction Or is this dependence How am I different From someone who cant Live without drugs Because it causes them pain When I eat my candies To dull my agony I eat pills like candy I must be a sweet tooth Yet I don‘t enjoy it But others believe that I have to

“Have a share“ They say Then only look at some They turn their back on others Pretending they are none There is only a share When things are being shared How can we have a share When some people never were In possession like the others But does that even matter? Rights aren‘t potatoes We don‘t cut them like fries We don‘t share them like a meal We don‘t have to lose to thrive Your ugly entitlement It‘s based on taking from other‘s You took a share and claimed it “right“ Then dared to call it “rights“. There is no “right“ And no meaning to rights“ When you build up on the wrong Rights have never been potatoes You don‘t decide who gets a share Rights are no achievement They are universal care
