I often look across my skin
for a cut or bruise,
a scratch paper thin,
just for a glimpse,
of the pain within.

Everyone's scars seem laid bare,
others helping them with care,
the pain I feel
seems all but real,
cause no one reaches,
no one tries,
to see the hurt
behind my eyes.
I always feel like my internal turmoil is just my delusions,
and that I'm just fine and I'm only acting stupid.. I tried so ******* this poem T.T Also give me tag ideas, im still pretty new here idk what to put...

Edit: *** how did this go viral I’m so happy :D

secrets are like baby birds
once they break out of their shells..
they leave the nest, and fly around, free.

Think about all the souls
There are
Existence and not
Non existent most powerful
Cannot see
Their power
Will my soul tell the tale ?
That evolution is linked to revolution .
To keep the mind strong
Not weak
Social media is
Blocking out Gods hands for is us mold
Into better original selfs?
Invisible magic get sprinkled into.?
Where the unknown is found
Ancient history is uncovered?
My own soul that lingers deep inside me
Does it get vaccumed up?
Does it have a sweet citrus smell
Or does it remind me
Of when my soul
Was almost taken by the devil himself?
We climb the Koro hill.

Forty years and still ascending
gives a good feel.

We stand under a Madhuca tree
blossoming in March heat and rain.

From the hilltop
the valley down below
looks dreamy grey.

We've greyed and graded
past full bloom.

In the wafting fragrance of Madhuca
we pray to hold on
for some more.

The pressure to create constantly
makes those creations feel disposable

you knew I was lost,
you took advantage of that.

i had to accept your touch
i had to understand your desire
and your hand on my body
left a mark

i broke into pieces,
with your touch that I can't wash away
and with your face,
which I cannot forget


now am silenced
for the rest of my days

what must i do,
to break free,
from the suffocating shackles of this mind.
To truly live,
to silence all doubt,
and end this lingering worry.
What must i do?

i weigh twenty-one
and three tenth grams
so why does moving
feel so heavy?

like a dog tied to a tree
all i can do is bark
but no one can
hear me scream

why am i trapped
in a suit of flesh
if i am destined
to leave it?
Oh me! Oh life! of the questions of these recurring...
