Losing myself by the day, by the night as it comes. Sinking and being ****** further in. And I know I shouldn't care so much Because it's all just trivial in the end. But these conflicting feelings repel like magnets. My loss of patience is tragic. These burdens eat at my heart and challenge my soul. As I try to be a rock and not to roll.. Transparency is me But only for the ones that see. If your pride separates us, I build my wall for you and walk away. For a connection without trust Cannot be genuine in any way. Mistake my silence for agreeance Because I won't be bothered with your ignorance. But I choose to turn from childishness And step into consciousness. Forgive me for not giving into the game the ego plays. For my higher self wants to stray From the path of insecurity and hurt And social normalities. And I say **** it to your fake formalities. Being pulled by the current of the world and torn to shreds By the animals that walk it, My body and mind have grown weary. As I realize eminent outcomes so dreary.. But of all the unfortunate ends, Would be my unfolding social suicide. Swayed and influenced into reaction Rather than reflection, I become part of the disease, the infection. Following the useless herd with no sense of direction. As I try to return to myself once again, I know within, its all meaningless and I should only love. But my mortal feelings challenge me. I attempt to ascend and look to stars above. All this emotion and wisdom I have, balancing. Not sure if my silence is growth or indifference, or maybe just pain. But my reactions, whether how I feel or not, are hard to cover and feign. So this is what it means to be human.
