[Social Awakening]
Chandy Mar 2020
The more I interact
The less I detract
Misdeeds are tracked
While my eyes retreat from contact
Mar 2020 · 22
[Sister's Secrecy]
Chandy Mar 2020
Tell to no other
Words which remain exclusive
Capable of ruin
Mar 2020 · 28
[Today's Regret]
Chandy Mar 2020
Never took action
Draped in dissatisfaction
Tomorrow come soon
Mar 2020 · 39
[Today Came Early]
Chandy Mar 2020
So did the problems

[Dirty Desire]
Chandy Mar 2020
Can't find peace
Doesn't exist
In the second level
All we know is desire
God I wish
It would be tired
No longer brings pleasure
Longing not for a *****
For...
For a ladder out of here.
Mar 2020 · 70
[Project OFFLINE]
Chandy Mar 2020
Data is gone
Where has it flown?
Not just mine
Everyone...
Credit cards
Social security
Cameras
Networks
No frame to bounce back from
Nothing secure
Hence the pretense
An assault
Onto digital landscapes
They got smarter
Stealthier
Capable of striking
With no awareness
Did we create...
The end of ourselves?
Mar 2020 · 20
[Taught or Teach?]
Chandy Mar 2020
Can you label yourself
As a teacher
If you can't teach
Yourself?
Mar 2020 · 79
[Opposing Ends]
Chandy Mar 2020
Seperated by land
United by heart
No more
Dwelling in ruin
Open your mind
Fill it with glory!
One day
We will finally meet
Until then
Let's become greater.
Mar 2020 · 20
[Me?]
Chandy Mar 2020
Stop.
You've pushed me down
Knocked my hopes out
Into embers
Tore my faith apart
After years
Built it all back up
Like any empire
Rise
Fall
Rebirth
Yet now you come
Back to pillage
Ruin is all you bring...
Part of me can't comprehend
That you are...
...me.
Mar 2020 · 184
[Problem v. Solver]
Chandy Mar 2020
Am I making a difference?
Just causing trouble
Bury me
Underneath forgotten rubble
Cannot be located with a Hubble
Telescopic
Distant incident
Magnify it
Like we always do
Now it's a threat
To my subconscious
These thoughts
My feelings
Forever chronic.
Mar 2020 · 40
[Kind Man]
Chandy Mar 2020
Not for fame
Nor for glory
He does it all
Because he can.
Chandy Mar 2020
Drive me down to Jupiter
Largest it can be
A home
Which I cannot occupy
Unless I'd like to
Fall asleep for eternity
So for today
Let's journey
Down to
Rapture's landmark
Mar 2020 · 104
[All Things]
Chandy Mar 2020
All things
Man has created
Founded
Organized
All things
Which are dual
For moral
And immoral
Purposes
As we push forward
The possibilities come further
Into our future
While good and evil
Evolve
Like all things
Mar 2020 · 90
[Day of Arrival]
Chandy Mar 2020
Siren alerted
Hide down below
Before all life
Ceases and explodes
Apocolypse applies to all applications
War inside
A damaged planet
Heal the wounds?
Push the bullet in further.
Mar 2020 · 59
[Good and Another Good]
Chandy Mar 2020
Your struggles aren't invalid
Conflicts aren't pointless
Yet in my eyes
I will surpass you
Clash of ideology
Both of us mean well
In the walk of life
Wanna get out running
No time to saunter
When the gap between us
Binds us down
Mar 2020 · 95
[Impurity]
Chandy Mar 2020
The light
It burns!
Why do people like this?
Chandy Mar 2020
I like you
Or is it hate?
Wake up early
Maybe late
Hungry
Not anymore
Which is such?
Like there's more than me
Residing inside
A chamber of flesh and bone
Mind decides
To flip like a coin
I feel like heads
How about tails?
Mar 2020 · 108

Chandy Mar 2020
[?]
When the truth comes out
It'll be an array of colors
One for each of us
.
.

That isn't truth
Selective acceptance
Better phrasing
Mar 2020 · 47
[Directionless]
Chandy Mar 2020
None around
To me, that's fine
Don't need to know everything
Born unknowing
Directionless boy
Entwined in the concrete jungle
Swinging on a high
That'll never end
Chandy Mar 2020
My name
In your will...
...
...who are you anyway?
Chandy Mar 2020
Hopping to other states
After one encounter
Downright despicable
Yet understandable
Maybe today it'll be time
To break the habit
That makes you blind
Doom will not follow
Wisen up
Unless you like being hollow
Accompany your side
For this world needs a sight
Sore eyes
To enlightened
Free of fear
Dashed of despair
Keep me in sight
It'll be alright
Running leaves behind problems
Another day
No one can run forever.
Mar 2020 · 44
[Flee the Undesirable]
Chandy Mar 2020
You never have to run away
So I will not either
Chandy Mar 2020
A theme park that entertains
Cure all of the negativity
Finally
Mirage no longer
Real
Abandon doubt
Throw out fear
For now...
We'll be entertained
For now...?
Not forever?
Right...
Sensing a theme
The park has a half-life
Like you and I
Chandy Mar 2020
I gave you everything I had
Instead
He gave you what you wanted
Who's the real winner?
Mar 2020 · 23
[Motivation]
Chandy Mar 2020
Not leaving
Just searching
For a purpose
Mar 2020 · 40
[Riddle of Life]
Chandy Mar 2020
Why must good people suffer?
No matter your morality
Mortality hunts us all
From the moment of inception
Suffering
Crept into existence
Mar 2020 · 52
[One Side]
Chandy Mar 2020
One-sided love
Lust?
Desire?
Not too dissimilar
Mar 2020 · 25
[Modernism]
Chandy Mar 2020
Enlighten me
How much is our humanity?
May not matter
Advent of science
Renaissance directed at culture
Better than past trends
Born amongst ruin
Unenlightened actions
Near a church-born saint
Love found up above
With no answer
Once again
Forgotten by the stars
Throw out of the night sky
Labeled as inferior
When in their time
It was their standard
Incomparable
Ideals never present
What was once the truth
Mere opinion
Pure hypothesis
Drawn together
By what gives us comfort
Mar 2020 · 41
[Sanitize]
Chandy Mar 2020
Where do I begin?
Complex to the matter
Wrap the hands of many
Silk embrace
Don't know where
Nor why
All we ever know
Is the "when"
Yet nothing to admit
Toward positive endings
Drown in our mentality
Pull the plug
What is there
Left to take out?
No low-hanging fruit
Too simple
Change the mold
Not frugal
Demonize the danger
Black and white
Subjective perspective
Never existed
It won't prevent
Us from looking through it.
Mar 2020 · 20
[Viral Infection]
Chandy Mar 2020
Only a few have gone by
Today some more
Yet you're acting
Manic
Like the whole world
Crumbles by the hour
Watch the coverage
It'll bring you pain
No stock in relief
Come back again
Relief will come
When others decide so
Mar 2020 · 26
[Sense Bad Times]
Chandy Mar 2020
Some days
I can feel when things are wrong
Twisted and mangled
Feeling dismantled
End of the day
Wishing I could do
Something to make life
Less hectic for you
Comes with existence
No one read the fine print
Mar 2020 · 30
[Finite Preference]
Chandy Mar 2020
Fun is infinite
Then how
Would we know anything else?
Mar 2020 · 44
[Over with Sleepovers]
Chandy Mar 2020
Sleepovers are timeless
Doesn't age like milk
2% of society
Agree with my notion
The rest
Like to raise a commotion
Too old to have fun
With a friend until the sun
Swaps out with the moon
Mar 2020 · 25
[Paranoia in the Streets]
Chandy Mar 2020
Spread like semantics
No hope in the centerpiece
Of society
Locked up in cold bars
The room closed for bards
Gloves to shut out the sting
Icy touch with an unfinished flair
We're all stuck on feeling
Angels can't come down
To save the world from each other
Paranoia runs rampant
What happened to savory flavors?
Did our taste run dry?
Hot summer days couldn't burn
Through the tension in the air
The angels close the gates
Left out to our own fates
Yet there's nothing to discern
Searching for a hero
Hence why we see so much
Peacetime around lunch
No negatives only a zero
Our path is undecided
So let's walk forward
Not torn apart
But locked in compassion
Feb 2020 · 26
[Sing and Praise]
Chandy Feb 2020
Legends have come to stay!
Soldiers of iron
Horses in position
Raised to defend
Glorious an effort!
Preventing an unsightly war
Maybe it could
Raise our productivity
At the cost of the populace
Is it worth the sacrifice?
I'd say yes
Yet...
That's not for me to resolve
I keep those who thrived
And once died
Still alive
Despite my sight
My voice refuses to die
Legends will always stay.
Chandy Feb 2020
Roam around
In a galactic playground
So much room
None with you
Drifting in the cosmos
Embraced by starlight
Pray that I'm not dwarfed
By your embrace
Cause nowadays
It doesn't sustain
Maybe it isn't my wish
To go out like this
Fading away
Faint
Division
Feb 2020 · 24
[Shadow Canine]
Chandy Feb 2020
Shadow canine
Stop taunting me
Still, you appear
I'm over her passing
Came to terms
Years in the past
Are you a sign?
Of something
I cannot comprehend
Or a reality
I refused to face
Shadow dog
Fugitive of no crime
Fleeing from reality
Cause my mind
Tells me what I want
I'll admit, I'm afraid
Don't know how to fix this
Leave me alone
She wouldn't want this to stay
Feb 2020 · 37
[Placebo]
Chandy Feb 2020
The crushed up
Dreadful
Rotten tasting
Medicine
Helps a lot
Yet
I'm not sure
If
The cure is all
In
My imagination
Feb 2020 · 58
[Hierarchy]
Chandy Feb 2020
Someone must be tossed below
For others to be
On top of the world
Feb 2020 · 96
[Family]
Chandy Feb 2020
Our reunions
Daily to rare
What changed?
Feb 2020 · 25
[True Horror]
Chandy Feb 2020
Shocks and scares
True horror
.
.
.
Being forgotten
Chandy Feb 2020
Remember when life made sense?
Care never knocked at the door
Doorbell is broken
From the high dive
Reality cannonballed
Now everything is twisted
Mangled from the start
I'd like to understand it all
Let it be for now, but...
Can I still swim away?
When my arms
Don't want to exercise
Tired from the trials
That set me up to collide
Into havoc and mundanity
I remember when life made no sense
Everyday.
I'd like to thank those who've decided to follow me! I genuinely appreciate the interest in what my brain crafts on a daily basis, here's to many more poems!

[The Teller]
Chandy Feb 2020
I'd like to live long enough

To write my own epilogue
Feb 2020 · 62
[Call of the Void]
Chandy Feb 2020
Bottomless
Open for all
When it calls out
I want to jump in...
All that'll await
Is the ending
Of my story
Feb 2020 · 21
[Unspeakable]
Chandy Feb 2020
Entered the cave
Pilfered some treasure
Apparently
It was all they had
Oh well
They can't chase me
Not anymore
Feb 2020 · 25
[Remote]
Chandy Feb 2020
Cracked rocks
Amongst
Fractured dirt
No souls in range
Nothing alive
Except me
I was told
There was a house here
Once
Upon a time
Now
I can't find it
In the distance
About 20 footsteps away
TV
Wooden frame
Knobs aplenty
Reaching my hand out
///K R R R R R R R R///
It turned on...
All I could see
A woman
A man
And a dog
Enjoying each others company
Twisted the ****
What's this...?
Another man
On his own
Stuck in a deserted local
Cracked rocks
Amongst
Fractured dirt
Wait a minute...
How...?

Chandy Feb 2020
Out of the depths
My brothers emerged
Yet what I saw...
Wasn't them.

[Mechanical Messiah]
Chandy Feb 2020
The people want hope
A messiah
Someone to look up to
In times of hardship
Death
War
Famine
Catastrophe
Gifted with the power
To create
I will make a new hope
For all to survey
Doctorate in electrical reasoning
With pure electricity
Bring forth the mechanical messiah
