Jamaican Little sad words in heart language. http://wordsofmelancholia.wordpress.com/
Up until today, I only ever felt three emotions Sadness Deeper sadness And anger The anger took me through any given day The sadness took me through the nights The deeper sadness I felt when a life or special moment has completed The response to each emotion was always just tears. I yearned to feel more. At the same time feeling privileged At least I still could feel. Then today my heart turned off. Followed by my brain Felt nothing and thought nothing of it. I wish I had someone else’s life even for a day.

1. Stare away into a vacuum. There's always something entertaining happening in that vacuum and it needs your undivided attention. 2. Master a blank expression especially when staring into the vacuum or directly at anyone. 3. Never laugh or smile in social gatherings or ever. 4. Be a miser with your words, use one-word responses and add a few grunts and guttural sounds to your vocabulary. 5. Believe every male is a ****** 6. Never show emotions, especially obvious ones like happiness, surprise, or sadness. These may serve as conversation starters and you don't want that. 7. Don't necessarily avoid all eye contact. If the person is obviously determined to make contact with your pupils, give it to them. Stare them down and continue to stare. If they say something, don't respond just keep staring. 8. Crushing on someone? Don't even bother. They don't want you. 9. Fine, you can't help your crush, these eyes you must definitely avoid. 10. Use up all your tech gadgets, phones, iPods, even a **** calculator can help, after all the measly remains of your bank account isn't going to check itself. Anything with words u can pretend to read is also helpful, even your last grocery receipt that you just randomly found in your purse. 11. "I don't know" is a very good answer for almost every question you're asked. To make it seem less harsh (if you even care) you can substitute for "not sure" 12. Always pretend to listen, nods and grunts are helpful for this. 13. The less you move your body or your face the better, they're all watching you, judging you, trying to study you remember that. 14. Paranoia is your friend. 15. Refuse all food or drinks. Do not let them see you eat.

Praying Mantis Pride
Birthday a celebration Of anticipation Of being born Not yet alive Every New Years A resolution “This will be the year of my birth” Step off a moving bus Jaywalk Speed A lover With unrequited love Hair color green Drink blood In anticipation of being born Tattoo the skin Put a red cross In the middle. Along the spine Endless riddles Shave all hair A **** for the tongue Do a million lines Call it fun In anticipation of being born Be apathetic Pretend you are free No responsibilities Claim “I will always be me” Watch others live Not believing in death Obsessed with rebirth Waste time lots of *** In anticipation of being born Pine away in depression Get bullied Slit wrists Drink a bottle of *** Bleed out in the tub Death In anticipation of being born

Anticipation of being born
Mentally unwell Body sickly Mind is clouded Heart is melancholy Substance abuse ****** promiscuity Laziness No motivation Bad hygienic practices Worn and battered Beaten and bruised Years of let down, bullying and abuse Skin radiating The colour of light brown sugar Contradicts what’s beneath, the pallor. Heart feels none but one emotion Sorrow so deep it engulfs the ocean No positive contributions to Earth Death, decompose, rebirth Just a sorrowful body wafting around It belongs in the ground.

The Earth For A Bed
These days she's awake. survived the perpetual state of sleep walking. These days she's agitated It doesn't matter These days she's forgotten how to smile. Empty laughs of mockery surround her These days everything touches her revolutionary spirit. Where’s yours? These days injustice everywhere. The bigotry you spew is relentless. These days she doesn't understand you. You don’t recognize that other people feel as you do. These days we’re at war. War for peace. These days the solution is simple. But you don’t like simplicity.

These Days
Self-esteem will not allow her to be her Qui suis-je? Je ne sais pas She don mask Constantly donning masks It’s the reverse The hardships and trials she endured in life Her self-esteem took the blow “You aint **** They constantly yell at her. Until she started believing it. I believed it. Self-worth shot to **** Why should she get anything. She doesn't deserve it She's nobody. She's invisible. Living a fake life Nobody is aware Masks are starting to suffocate her They stay stuck to her face Lovers (mostly lovers) No friendships No relationships It’s all on the surface They can’t see what’s beneath her masks Its ugly Its cold Its blank It exists Its invisible In the mirror she doesn’t see it Its unworthy Unworthy to be seen Unworthy to be appreciated They look through it Past it to the other side What is this thing called pride? Pride is just fear Fear of being seen Fear of being known The illusions The delusions The lies They are real. They’re what her life’s become What’s the point of living a fake life anymore? Constantly donning masks Stepping into a non-existent person’s shoes Pretense pretense pretense Hurt by hidden clues This is not a movie This is real life. But it isn’t real.

Masks
Life is mediocrity You grew up in a trap Staying trapped No networks No connections Nobody to talk to Mediocrity No hope No help No support Faces are blank Faces can’t help you Nobody got through it alone Don’t let them fool you They had support Even the tiniest Always left behind Nobody remembers Did you leave a mark? How would they remember? No mark. Trapped Mediocrity Staring at blankness Black and white no colour. No hope. Mind is blank Ingenuity is dead Heart doesn’t feel Body just a shell Privilege is an evil word No its not But it will cause you to suffer. Who wants it least, destroys it Always left behind Never good enough Confusion Anger Depression Danger

Life is Mediocrity
Beautiful, gentle, feminine grace Her essence redolent of future nostalgic days Supplement for the eyes Taste of sweet hope drive away consternation Fragile, lithe confidence Feline cockiness unblemished control So bold and self-assured Insecurities tucked so deep She walks with the air of superior knowledge And she has it She knows things we wished Intelligent in all her undertaking As simple as they are. likeness to the purest Shes a magnificent creature There is strength in her confidence. Then there are the others similar species The ones who lack Beastly Trod like a giant Callous to the touch Gauche by comparisson Constant yearning To be so sure of themselves Constantly seeking others approval Watching her Studying her. Long hours of staring And inhaling her Pretending to be her. Failing Its innate But only in women like her "We are not all meant to be the same" They are fed "It would be boring" She's manufactured by society To endure society Survival of the fittest She will survive. Don't we all deserve to survive? Some say its science down to the atom Invariably convinced that they are not members of the "protected" feminine gender But definitely not welcomed to the esteemed masculine gender. Born in the right body Trapped in the wrong mind.
