she's a minimalist;
with a minimal list of things that she desires,
and
things that she requires.
-
she's at one with all things,
so with her all things are one.
she never folds
nor does she run away.
she stays calm
and collected.
with actions dare reflecting
a light that's so flourescent,
posing questions...
like
"who are you?"
"from where have you came?"
"where have I seen you?"
and
"what is your name?"

its like you’re saying "dont feel anything"
and trust me,
ive tried.
-
i saw me stone-cold,
walls up,
eyes shut
and doors locked dead to the world.
dead was the girl
with no soul,
no heart,
but every night she fell apart.
every night she felt a piece of her fade away into the dark.
-
and now i feel everything,
and i feel it so deeply.
i feel things ive never felt,
and i feel them discreetly.
maybe i'm too "emotional" or maybe you're not emotional enough..

and if you ever do anything...
make sure to feel good about it,
feel good in it,
free yourself through it.
if you love it,
dont ask questions,
go ahead and just do it.
its your life,
you should live it.
give it time or just give it all you’ve got.

be patient

maybe you've never had to wait for anything.
maybe you've never had anything worth waiting for.

all of these words and these rhymes spilt,
yet still i can barely find any to share..
all of the time spent,
searching time zones and time lengths
yet there's nothing that even comes to mind.
when im in your presence,
im supposed to be present.
is it me or is it me?
cause if its me,
ill say with me im outspoken
with nothing unspoken...

as far as contentment goes,
im losing sight.
im going mad,
ensuring everything is right.
and what is right?
right?
-
see, its a battle of the
ego vs self...
-
ego wants the linear,
self wants the lesser.
ego wants a challenge,
ego folds when under pressure.
self wants ascension,
minimal attention.
self wants what's pure.
and the ego wants what's sure.
-
self says to "be still"
while the ego says "compete",
if they cant work together,
will i ever be complete?
-
but,
in the end,
it works out.
in the end they work together,
in harmony and balance.
now as one,
they live forever.
