The scariest thought hits me every once in a while;
i only have this life that is truly mine,
everything else is just an illusion
that is dragging me down with this addiction;
this cell phone,this television,this fashion of dressing up for perfection.
i am surrounded by stupid trends drowning me one after another;
i am so deep into this mess i no more say, "i love you" to my mother;
i am busy loving characters, i forget to love myself;
i am hustling for  the best pictures,i forget people starve to death;
i am so lost running around,proving my worth,i forget it myself;
i was so ******* in my phone,i didn't even notice her last call in death.
It really is sad, what has happened to me, to this world,to us all.
This one precious life i have ,i am wasting away ******* in this turmoil , when i should be setting fires to my wings and flying.
the world to day is very much spoiled and drowns us all into its depth,to some extent.
just another challenge to the long list that we have given birth to.
