There was a moon shines in the noon
There was a sky full of a cry
There was a star shining in the sky
There was a land covered by blood  
Their voice do not echoes their cries
Silenced night  
Voices of thousands hands
They speak the language of God
Hmmmm what's wrong
The bottle between right and wrong
Mariah 5d
Things never change.

Well, that's not exactly true.
Things have changed.
And I have too.

It's just that,
while things changed colors,
all I could see
were shades of blue.
I see in teal while I heal

its not a poem, just a reminder I’m still here
Trying
Fighting
Not giving up
screaming for help
But i guess no one can hear me.

thought i was better
days roll heavy on my chest
i’m alone again

say i'm too stressed
eating my teeth
the math isn't adding up
voices keep multiplying
say i should learn to relax
but you don't understand
i've never known the feeling

i was playing pretend
mind medicine overdose
listen, i was wrong

I overthink
All I have is my thoughts
Somehow connect all the wrong dots
I desperately desire to get it right
All I ever get is high as a kite
Lost motivation like a missing pet
Dreams haunted by a blurry silhouette
These ******* insecurities incessantly holding me back
Mind catapulted so hard it's finally starting to crack
It's lonely walking this nowhere road
Hieroglyphics in soul I can't seem to decode
Multiple eruptions happen within heart's beating rooms
Life is a tapestry of pain woven on fate's looms
The reflection staring from mirror is looking rather strange
I know that to reach peace something badly needs to change
But I have no clue what it is

Running on auto pilot -
wonder when it will give up,
and refuse to move.
I entered a dark house,
With the dazzling flame of my lamp.

I entered the lonely living room,
But the lamp got dim.

I entered the rusty kitchen,
Only a few things glimmered by my lamp’s glow.

I entered the haunted bedroom,
Where my lamp betrayed me in the dark.

At the end, I forgot the entrance,
Because the brightness of my darkness
Was way too strong.
I'm Still lost in the dark house

Last time,
with lost grief,
I kept thinking of something,
that never found an answer.

The day I asked the universe:
Why? Why do you never let the world drive by itself—
without your rules, without its taste?
But silence whispered, unexplainably,
Or maybe.. I just didn’t hear.

I see people moaning,
“Oh God! Please call me to yourself!”
But you never call them.

I see people crying,
“Oh God! Please forgive my mistakes, spare my life!”
But I guess... they are your favourites.

From here, from there,
I wonder...
Why do they both ends the same way?
Both cries, only perspectives apart :
one wants to stay, while other wishes to leave.

I asked the universe again:
Why? Why do those who wish to live, eventually leaves...
while those who wish to leave, eventually stays?

Guess what? These questions covered up in the silence again..

It’s been months, unanswered...
Or maybe it’s just unexplainable.

Maybe the universe breathes in paradox.
And that itself is the answer.
