Good Morning!

Today the sun shines just for you
The sky is painted your favorite shade of blue
Take a look outside
Don’t fear the unknown
Only in the face of adversity do we grow
So go on
The world awaits you

And what would happen if you
Looked into my eyes...

And realised?

These glazed eyes,
A distorted tautologous window.

A facade of transparency.
The window is misted
It’s distorted with the touch of an October morning.

And I fear.

You will not see through this window,
This glass.
Until it has shattered,
And all that remains is a soul,
That has been freed.

I’m a stranger to myself
The reflection I yearn for
Is empty as of the past few months
I stand in front of the mirror for hours on end
Just hoping to see
Me
But I am unrecognizable
Some nights I sit in the guilt
Of continuing like I know at all who I am
But what do I say
I hope I can wake up one day
And really see me

what is most beautiful in life
is that which is left unknown
that which must be imagined

this applies to all things
from romance to art
from science to philosophy

we are drawn
to the unknown
like moths to the flame

stop telling yourself
what to do and how to think
start listening to yourself
true wisdom has always
been inside you

I hope and pray you get the help you need
To get back to where you need to be
Release the demons, setting them free
I wish you nothing but success
Wishing you all of the best
Restart your life , restart you
Get back on track
Here’s to a better you

I feel foggy
With this self-medication,
        my mind thickens still
An unasked yet unanswered query
What exactly is in this pill?

A means without end
An end far from near,
        there's a pain in my heart
The saddened fate of system made,
        too late to tear apart.
