if i focus hard enough
i can
budge
all my molecules
that once were snug
embedding slivers of space
till solitude is my room

bold glitch grip
you've been colored violent by It
code writ scrapes
large like star whorls flake

one solitary chromium petal fell
into a river with a mien of mum
where it wilted
filled with ****

and you watched it come from afar
you saw the small sun become runny
don't lie

dear scar
you must collect yourself or
the ruin of ars
will still
what is ours
into petrified mime

box that used to house magic
now you are jus an awkward corpse
that won't lie down

old bony black ear encased in steel and window
you once were a god
with your promises and movies and whatnot

it must be lonely
now fading
graffitied  
or does it feel like bliss
to no longer hear all the feels of mere mortals

•i've depleted my font,
my creative well•for each
day passed, with a story to tell
•staining white and barren land-
scapes•by sculpting my words into
myriad shapes•from factory fumes to
a wedding ring•an ominous tombstone
to a flash of lightning•an hourglass to track
elapsing time•the untold story behind a loved

                   nursery rhyme•            |  
                   with this i conc-             |  
                lude my 30 day run          o  
•it's been quite a stretch but
all in good fun•rest assured that
more will come when the time is
right•for now i'll turn off my
bedside lamp and bid
you all a goodnight•

Fearless

Too long I've rested upon my throne.
Ordained as ruler,
I wield a sceptre
imbued with old indoctrinated notions.
Bound in aged, tired traditions.
Obstinacy clasped tight within my fingers.

Living by the
foundations laid,
imposed by predecessors before.
I realise that I am but caged
within my self enforced confines.

I want what lays beyond...
But I am afraid...
And more...

I must embrace the unknown.
Be fearless...
And take to the darkness.

Because...

One can only fly free into greatness
if one is unafraid to take the leap
into changing winds.

They're gonna say you're not worthid,
They're gonna tell you they don't care,
They'll degrade you till you break,

You err, they'll say you're frail,
You cry, they'll say you're hopeless,
You smile, they'll say you're fake,

This is our society,
No matter what you do,
What you say,

Wherever you go,
Wherever you stay,
In love or in pain,

They'll envy you,
And shatter you,
They'll say stuff that'll hurt you,

Even if you're right,
Even if  you're wrong,
They'll judge you,

Till the day you live,
After the day you die,
They'll share their sympathies but will always portray you as weak.
Let them say whatever. You know who you are. They don't need any justifications.
