every time i wake up, i always think of one thing

why.

why do i look like this?
why do i act like this?
why am i alive?

that fixed mindset took me no where in life but a deep spiral of unanswered thoughts and questions


-----------------------------------------------------­----------------------------------------


as i walk through my path I come across a creature
a beautiful one at that

it had teal wings like silk
white spots to complement itself
and flies so majestically
so smooth and attractive

i follow it to see what it was
what this organism was

as i stop in my tracks, still as water
i came to realize that this creature was a butterfly
when it landed my soft skin it felt like i was shocked with hope
it gave me a new path of life i've never imagined

now,

i live a life where my eyes are truly open
open to see the light of things around me

Much to
my surprise
More and more
I come to find
☆Rainbow Stars⁠☆
✧ in my eyes✧
When most my life
I've lived in ⁠
✯Black and White✯
I truly am a surprisingly happy person for someone with horrendous rage issues.

Thoughts have stopped being my own
An unknown finger presses play
And when I get surprised by an original
That which I think becomes difficult to convey
What I want in life and from life
Has no meaningful connection with the following day
Forced into this empty role
No two cents in the character I display
Prewritten by something else
No angel but not a devil per-say
Rather an capital punishment believer
With zero concern for my welfare either way

Is there inherent good in people?
Who's to say,
Nothing is that simple
With little to no meaningful example sample
One's left to guess what to shed and what's essential
For those not raised to be capable
Those who struggle with both an internal and external battle
Or wound up with a broken porcelain bone handle,
It's hard to shake the fragile label
And always surprising who is willing to use it as ammo
There is good, there is evil
Most linger somewhere near the middle
Remember though,
It's not that simple

It is officially silly season
where there is no time for reason
and anyone can get away with treason
but even you can admit to falling to pieces

only seen from afar
you are like a shooting star
and if I get too close I'm left with a scar

I hope I'm not you're secret
but if I am would you keep it

so take my broken pieces and please make them cohesive

That's why I eat my 3 meals every day
so I can keep farting and *******
wrote this while taking a ****. We should be thankful for the little things in life.
