Around man hangs a shell through which no one thinks about the gorges

Everything so easy and accessible
like the life of a king shown at a school performance

Happiness appeared right after taking it
You don't worry about anything like just after your arrival

When you were little, innocent
in the adult world, you are no longer blameless

And to forget, you take it like everyday life
that poisons you, you can believe me for sure
No matter where you run, where you are and what you do. When you can't cope, you have to believe that the medicine for help can be someone close to you, someone who wants to help you. Even when you are alone, you should ask people for help, to make the problem disappear, you have to want it yourself, otherwise. The problem won't go away, it will drag on, wanting to pull you down, to an abyss, a ravine from which you won't get out

If you left what would happen
I wouldn't be able to say goodnight captain
The midnight talks the bliss the sadness would end
Maybe it would leave in my heart a dent

The time would stop for me and you
I wouldn't be interested in anything to do
The world will be dark silence echoes
I would dream of white flowers in a  meadow
With you lying down with a crown of flowers
Holding hands , enjoying every hour.

Now you are gone your scent remains
Oh we flew paper cranes what a waste!
The world didn't stop for you like it did for me
Coz you replaced me with a certain he

The weather is the same so are the cars
Then what changed it ain't the stars
Oh I see what you did to me
Made it a habit to share everything I see

I still don't blame you and never will
And don't worry i won't take any pill
I am glad that you were once there
But the pain is still difficult to bare.

Oh a saint in my textbook told me it's worthless
But sorry sir you cant explain it to be a breathless
Person crying all night
In memories of someone with whom they had a fight

Coming back to you the love of my life
I wished that someday I made you my wife
But life is uncertain no one knows what will happen
Sad that I wouldn't be able to say goodnight captain
Random emotions hehe heartbreak yeah not exactly but we have all been there

leaves bleed in the water
a small sip to check if it's
pleasing to taste
leave the cup alone
as I apply for jobs

As I sleep
My mask grows anew
As I must upkeep
How I am viewed

Throughout the day
It must be worn
I must not sway
Until everyone's gone

As your head grows grimy
As the days keep marching
The mask thickens
The mask brightens

Each day I suffocate
Suffocate in a toxic smile
Suffocate at the remarks
I gasp for air
As the mask wither away in isolation

Crumbling as I touch silence
It falls without delay
Closing in on everyday
And the mask grows bolder
The mask grows thicker
The repeated desperate and exhausting fight to hide off oneself, out of fear and compassion.

Poetry can be found anywhere;
In the simple and sublime.
In a tweeting Talaud Kingfisher,
Or a dry, dead gum leaf in your backyard or mine
Be inspired to look around,
And you can find provocation for every line.

I've stopped telling myself there's still a possibility it'll be okay
Honestly,
Mostly only because I've run out of things to say
That and I am tired of lying to myself everyday
There must be another way...
Either that or I just don't know how to play
What do the rules say?

If life is a living hell,
And living is a privilege,
Then surviving is a show-and-tell
Of who’s got the most,
And it’s never the ones struggling
To stay afloat.

If this is hell,
Then what can be worse than this?
Who really wins when it’s all
Make-believe and pretend?

The rich get richer,
And we all keep drowning in debt,
Expected to just take it.

"It's not a bad life,
Only a bad day"
To which I respond right away,
"Okay,
But what if it's everyday?"
Their reply?
"That's just life"
"Oh, ya don't say"
