Structure

Chaos

Society way.

Bars

Shackles

Time taken away.

Heart beat

Don't breathe.

Steady hands

Shaking feet.

Conform, conform, conform, repeat.

Comfort

Ignorance

Keep us enslaved.

Unaware

Unquestioning

We weren't born this way.

Face made of stone

Eyes made of glass

Hearts made of plastic

Mind made of brass.

Opinions

Creativity

Individuality

Wash it all away.

Conform, conform, conform, repeat.

Will I be a robot one day?



Watch

Don't talk.

Read

Don't speak.

Walls built tall

Privacy in breech.

Complacency

Security

Uniformity

Preach.

Don't chip the marble

Originality is inside.

Don't break the bottle

Thats where everyones feelings hide.

Inside, Inside, Inside, Internalize.

Destroying humanity

One insecurity at a time.
i haven't smiled in days
and i feel my teeth starting to rot
from the cyanide
seeping through my gums.

Make her see
through my eyes

Make her see
the peace I'm trying to find

Make her see
further than I could ever measure

Make her see
that right now I'm blind

It is uncanny     how you felt so real
in the after-wake     of a vivid dream.
21:30 - 16/05/17
State of mind: rested; pensive; reflective.

Thoughts: from dreams - I sometimes have strange dreams that involve someone who I seem to identify with but can never see their face. I just feel their presence, which is supportive and reassuring, in essence.

Questions: how can we recognise that abstract thought - such as dreaming - is just as important and affecting as the tangible world around us? Why do we lose grip on dream states more easily than regular thoughts?

Notes: I could have written 'after waking up' but I wasn't fully awake or waking up. It was 4:00am, there was no chance of that happening.
