Aspiring filmmaker. I write short stories and poems in my free time. You can check them out on my Tumblr: http://mary-jane-is-my-bae.tumblr.com/
What is it that I truly seek? What happened to the beauty, in all that I used to see? Can someone explain what happened to me? I used to have the buzz and the impetus, that you'd see in a bee. But these days, I look like a stone tied to a tree. Asking myself, at which age did happiness decide to flee?

Oh, men. How we lend our ears to the siren's song Just to realize that the siren's wrong

Siren Song
If we were happily in love, and then I began to stray a little farther- I’m sorry, love, but you can blame my father.

“Just pick a path, and pick a vice” Is what the old man said when I asked for advice

Advice
It has never been clearer, that I’m lost when I stray too far from You. I really wished I said this earlier, I hope it’s not too long overdue. I suppose it’s better late than never, so: God, how do you do?

A Letter
The distance is apparent, but you cannot see the wall. Nothing matters Should I even care at all? Everybody knew I was coming down, but nobody thought I’d fall Days are getting vapid I need something to call A purpose A reason to live until I’m in a hearse And when that day comes On my behalf,    please recite a holy verse.

Purpose?
Morning arrived earlier than I expected; while I was reflecting on the minutes I neglected Sleep, why do you elude me? Everybody else is in peaceful world of slumber; but my insomnia excludes me The Sun lights up the morning And I light up my cigarette But the night makes day look boring Or is my normalcy just illiterate?

Insomnia
the house next door makes me sad. both man and wife rise early and go to work. they arrive home in early evening. they have a young boy and a girl. by 9 p.m. all the lights in the house are out. the next morning both man and wife rise early again and go to work. they return in early evening. By 9 p.m. all the lights are out. the house next door makes me sad. the people are nice people, I like them. but I feel them drowning. and I can't save them. they are surviving. they are not homeless. but the price is terrible. sometimes during the day I will look at the house and the house will look at me and the house will weep, yes, it does, I feel it.

safe
Seeking solace in the impenetrable fortress that I built Only for the walls to be pierced by the arrows of my own guilt Can anybody really differentiate between the truth and the lies? Is our failure to do so the reason we resort to temporary highs? Deep down I know, my true Love looks down upon me from the skies I just hope in my silence He could hear my prayers and my cries. If you awake to news that I have died in the morn Be still Don't cry, don't mourn No need for you to get down on two knees, all I ask for is a little prayer And remember me for my good deeds so I can be prepared to meet my Maker

My Last Will
The reason on this trip we came was to forget about superficial dames chasing money and fame Our senses piercing through the veils of reality stuck in a vortex of time and perpetuality questioning the true nature of reality. Seeing things for more than what they seem like how rain resembles life’s intricate themes and our union, God’s great schemes Forget the scientific name and what love looks like conventionally for LSD means love, serendipity, and dreams
