33/M Perspective is what drives everything and truly understanding others is my greatest wish
Seats were taken till there was none left so they stood All eyes on one man each for the same reason justice the man stood across from a judge the judge stared at the man and asked a question do you feel any remorse the man gives a light laugh should one feel remorse for being one's own self no, no remorse can any of you watching say the same have any of you ever asked yourselves who you are when not told too I'm sure I will be deemed crazy that will only be in the eyes of the many for I will be the one to judge myself

Integrity
It feels like a movie, as if life was plotted out to each varying detail. A movie I am not apart of but a spectators of sorts. Never seeming to join in the rolls we each play. Slowing tearing at me, never knowing what role I am supposed to play. Almost making me feel as if my role is to watch and see, as this world slowly unravels around me. Just watching, almost say studying the movements that each individual plays and the effects he or she makes. A movie I can not change, even if I tried with all my might. But my worst fear of all, the one I am most afraid to see, is will my scene end or will this movie end before me.

It Feels like a Movie
I laid out lost to the world recalling the day before when I spotted a unicorn no words could do justice to its beauty a beauty that makes you dazed confused one that makes you wish to cherish forever but you cant own a unicorn you can only gaze at it and hope hope that it will wish to stay

I question my thoughts I wonder how can they be from nothing to me

mystery
in a small room, there are many souls each one has a story unique to them yet they don't speak of it they do not see it the stillness around them as they occupy a room without a word they don't question the quietness almost embracing it how can I blame them though what purpose does it serve to tell your story when its easier to stare at a phone and bask in the thoughts you have blissfully ignoring souls around you

a quiet room
I walk steadily one step at a time yet my destination seems so far away over and over I tell myself that my goal is walking alongside me still, I look ahead trying to reach a goal that I can't reach maybe I would chastise myself if the goal was unreasonable somewhere inside me though it does not feel like such no, it feels more like the starting line was too far back but I'm too stubborn to accept it to lay down and allow it to stop me so I walk steadily one step at a time

I often wonder the angle others see me As they look at me from across the room or stand next to me, making eye contact do they take my gestures the way I mean them is my true image reflected within them I wonder if its me that they see or if its the me who truly represents me I hope that image is the same as mine otherwise who would I be from angles that I cant see

Angles
I sit at the beginnings of a new future Yet to reach it I must openly defy my greatest fears My body is torn, so I write but to no one but myself As I put off what I must confront what I know is simple I might be a single unit, but my dreams matter so don't be scared, allow yourself to reach speak your thoughts and the world will listen or at least that's what I hope is true It sounds ideal to me since the world is lonely when you are the only voice you hear

defy yourself
My eyes are open so I see the shapes of the world around me I can make out its colors and can hear the voices that laugh and cry However, I don't know if others can see it reflected within my eyes but I can feel it the lack of empathy for their words my apatheticness towards the vibrancy around me the cold distant observation in the shapes that pass me by
