segregate me, but I am only human

I have to power to change a future

Peace, love, war, and violence

I contain it all with my thoughts and actions

I'm not whole from the apparent soul that consumes me

A fruitless tree only bears vegetables for me

And poorly salted meats

Im not lost forever

I just lost my way

No one knows what it's like

Still Everyone shares the experience

But me, myself, and the person and the mirror

A rippling pebble cannot change the strangest tides

To try and try harder

To the brink of insanity

Its simply

Who we are

And what we'll become

A New Form Of Drugs

I was warned of the drugs slipped in drinks, but never of the ones that smile and wink, that tell me sweet lies to make me think I may not die lonely.
If only it had been a drug from a bottle.
I was told to take things s l o w instead I went full throttle.
I knew I would wreck this.
I swallowed a new pill down with my breakfast.
It's not as good as the last, but I couldn't find a single trace of you in the wreckage.
I know you're my past. And I have to look forward.
I'm just unsure what I'm headed towards.
And I'll confess that I'm scared.
The moments we shared together were the only ones I didn't fear.
But no more lie ahead, you've made that quite clear.
I just don't understand why I'm still here.

Ambiguity

teeter on a negative edge

With 11 men approaching

Planing to cause some trouble

I'm not a lion fighting for survival

But Until I hit my zen mode

I'll return it 10 fold

This experience is universal

I pray it doesn't hurt you

Let's be hopeful one day

The scene is sweet like bundt cake

Lost without a purpose

Feeling a little worthless

Don't let the time fly by

Connect to the wifi

The circle of life is torture

Heed and maybe you will survive it

Because through the apple orchard

We bite poison apples

Then speechless words are giving

To the birth names we are giving

A curse by the parents

It's not to tolerate just shut up and accept it

I'm cursed to

twiddle my thumbs

Another thought slides through my cranial material

How will i sip this sour soup from those pitch black lips

And should I succumb to asphyxiation

The thrill of walking into a moving iron death trap

Thats where loves at

separated by opinion in the false dominion of unity

This is a test lab

And we're all **** rats

Still fighting for scraps

Pretend im a bug

And trends are a drug

Its still like raid toxic

Here it comes

The creeping feeling of doubt after that very decision

And every decision

But till that moment comes

I'm probably going to twiddle my thumbs

Forever doesnt seem to last that long

F.A.K.E

Forever alone in a mistake place

A unlikely outcome to real gimmicks

kind enough to accept ones faults

Entity

Im surrounded by catch phrased gimmicks

I'd rather be labeled fake then anything else

That piece a malleable plastic

Worthless scrap

It tends to surround everyone that doesn't understand its worth

Maybe im wrong

You're the realist of the real they say

You've hurt me

And buried me deep

Let me change

I a toxic helium

These rich brewed tea

Tasteless as it seems

Ive been noticing

You prefer coffee

So it appears to me

To be seen by an individual that isnt mean isnt something i prefer

So i will stay and remain

Forever

A

Kind

entity
