serendipity
English
I once knew serenity where I lived for infinity a place of my youth where there was nothing but truth no lies or deceit where there was nothing I wouldn't try and defeat an unbreakable young mind who saw happiness in everything he could find but innocence started to fade things weren't just lime and lemonade chemical changes taken place underneath ulterior motives hidden behind a metal sheath whilst lost the baby teeth took pleasure in power and not just the pretty flower unable to grasp that time began to move too fast yearn for the past emotions appeared that no one wants to last anger jealousy hurt and depression all which taught a life long lesson that nothing remains the same and for that there's no one to blame cause the world doesn't give a **** I know that's pessimism but expect for the worst as then at least your bubble of life wont burst.

not finished
Losing my sanity in a place that's no longer reality A place of all profanity Endless waves of struggle For nothing more than a quick kiss, Recreational use of poisons Or medicine to achieve fake bliss The unstoppable pendulum Ever moving forward and back The useless tests and useless fact To see wrinkles form And loved ones leave here disabled, Unable to comfort The loss of ones inner soul That safe place which you once knew The arms of someone that knew you The ultimate penalty and pain The regret and the shame, You thought you knew what it all meant But then everything is now backward and bent Motionless, the stillness a melancholic confirmation Your harness is gone And now your spiralling, Above and beyond.

Reality
Dissatisfaction an empty abyss Deep in now a well known limb Hope severed, intangible, a ghost Screaming without a sound Bleeding without a wound And these strings fatuously tuned. Inebriate and stumbling through an ocean of nobodies, all together, unseen Without a purpose, an insect Abiding another nobodies law, Rebellion restricted by a Metropolitan claw Steel bars in my own conscience Dreaming the escape, yet alone Soaring through time Captivation doesn't last A welcome blessing and an unintentional curse, yet alone and innocence is now grown
