A mind of a wanderer,
a peaceful place.
On earth it screams,
in here, it's sound asleep.
Breathing the air,
of the darkest night.
With all these stars,
shining bright.

A mind of a wanderer,
a surreal surrounding.
On earth it cries,
in here, it's drowning deep.
Into the ocean,
of the ancient history.
With beautiful mermaids,
singing lullaby.

A mind of a wanderer,
a high, high mountain.
On earth it lays low,
In here, it's standing still.
Walks a hundred steps,
on a steep pathway,
it even reaches the peak,
in time for the sunset.

A mind of a wanderer,
it stays here.
In a space,
which no one could trespass.
it is okay to be on your own, you don't have to travel around the world (in this context; having a big group of people knowing you) if you ended up feeling trapped and lonely. Everyone should just sit down and start wandering around their mind (in this context; enjoying warm company by a small group of friend)

Neuvalence
Death watches us all.
At our birth, death lies beyond sight
and is merely informed of our existence.
But as time progresses, death plods forth
from beyond the horizon to the fog’s end.
At that point, death watches,
looming in the distance,
standing, dark as night.
For the unfortunates death comes early.
For the over-extenders death waits patiently.
But for all, death comes.
We near death; death nears us,
counting down our every breath
until the last.

A ******* the corner
In the red rain coat
Is blowing a gum bubble
With the finest bubblegum in town.

As it expands, she sees lovers meet,
Children being born,
Friends meeting for coffee across the street,
All in the blink of an eye.

The bubblegum stretches miles in seconds
Dreams expand to the beat of her heart
Rings, homes, kisses, fantasies,
Flavorful and impassioned.

Too far, too fast
The bubble pops far too soon
Fights, blights, illness, death
Returning back to the sanctity from which it had arisen.

All that's left of the bubble are memories
Of those it affected
Deflating slowly but surely
Into the eternal abyss.

eeerie lake in the grave yard
where sad  girl finds sanctuary home to her among the deceased cold comfort in the  dark cemetery

play melancholy songs on guitar
to hard  bones deep underground
unimportant the dead are quiet
phantasmic beings dance all around

the lake swirls beneath skull moon
crows flew hungrily in onyx skies
corpses became very fond of her watched darkness grow in her eyes

often  tried to leave the safety there
night after night tune after tune
sad girl would come back
until lifeless bones were exhumed

Loving
Can be misleading
It could either give you paradise
Or leave you to suffer

Time
Is worth more than a dime
It could put distance between people
Or brings them closer all together

Silence
Feels nothing but absence
It could heal your soul
Or destroys you forever

Choices
Will always leave traces
You're one step closer to a better life
Or a step back closer to the knife

I had a restless night
I recall my upshot
With my reckless ******* habit.

As I reach to my mean machine
I just find a notification
My finger trembling
as I opened it.

    From: Momma
Subject: Beware
To:        Son

Dear son,
life goes really **** fast
As we are living on it
Sometimes we achieve what we want
Or doomed to disappointment.

Nobody knows tomorrow
Forevermore,
i thought you knew
Now you live
in a huge stew.

We gave you our trust
You threw away like a dust
We gave you our words
You argued with your own codes
We gave you light
It vanished into the night.

As I read the last line
Tears flowing to my cheeks
As my heart broken into pieces
As I broken them more than millions
Seeking for the second chance
I never wanna be a ******* again!

I remember that comet
Stamped so purely on my white
skin; like some maiden voyage
in my bloodstream.
It quickened, it seems
and I follow through with every
breath; dilated pupils and short, stout
beats.
Though through the coming earthquakes
I screamed aloud at nighttime
when the bitterness was bittersweet
and I couldn’t take that beating anymore.
But I got knocked down—
When you knocked at my door
Late at night
With the fog still clearing;
My blood shone then, right through my skin
And the comet shot out
As my breath quickened and
I wonder when it makes its
Second spin
Straight through this porcelain
And stops the racing
And all my shortcomings
For a silence.

She was in my arms
Hugging us tighter
Our bodies getting warmer
We close our eyes
And let our hearts
Be in one part.

I’ve been asked when and how
Do I think I’m going to die
I told them probably in my thirties
When I have no one to talk to
I’ll be talking to myself instead
And the mirrors on the walls
Will get bored of me crying
Infront of them all time long

Insanity will take control
The sadness will **** me
The pain will be the paint on the walls
The loneliness will shatter my soul
The voices will be more and more
The darkness will spread everywhere
The thoughts will re-play the sad melody
And I’ll be back to my old habits again

I won’t be able to write anymore
No matter how much I do
The ink will fade
And the words will be meaningless and fake
No matter how much I read
The words will empty and unreal /unsafe
No words would describe how I feel in that case

The world will be lost
I will drown once more in my painful reality
That I bewildered between it and my dreams
And one more time nobody will be here to
Save me from my darkest dreams

I’ll probably have everything when I’m in that age
But two things I won’t be able to have
Love and happiness
Love will be forever in another place
Where all the people who deserve it live
Happiness will be here but hiding behind
The sadness I can’t defeat

So I will take my pills, twenty of each
Mix them with alcohol
It will be probably midnight
To see the moon shine one more time
And how the stars shine up the dark sky
Or maybe it will be 5:30 or 6:00
To see the sunrise one more time

Those that matter to you,


Should be those who care about you.
Don’t let people control you, people who care will try and lead you in the right direction, but won’t force you.

Care about you all, stay safe

Some people say we all must know
Exactly who we are
Though all I know is what I am
All reincarnate stars

I cried, I lied, I almost died
Trying to define myself
But I am just the Universe
Talking to itself
