lack of motivation
life gets overwhelming
where am i consciously
thoughts are unpleasing
they tell me "chin up" but it's not that easy
swear it's like a disease
only can rely on me

tell me , am i setting myself up to fail?
just wanna make it , don't tell me the ship has sailed
spinning in circles , ******* life derailed
just take my *** to jail
problems too big it broke the scale

i'm losing myself ; can no longer feel
is anything left even real?
lost control soon as i took my hands off the wheel
swear i'm so low , how is this ideal?

gasping for air
if i took my last breath
who would care?
death and despair
why can't i just disappear

ripped apart from reality
the page tears
fell to my knees
so i say a prayer
why is happiness having an affair

how can i find myself
try to rewire my brain
force feed me pills to get rid of the pain
think i'm going insane
i'm not that picture perfect
don't pick me up and put me in a frame
compared to you , we are not the same

stuck in a slump
this is a speed bump
fall back down just to get up
than i shrug
life's got me ****** up
but negativity i will unplug

sweep these feelings under a rug
squash depression like a bug
don't come around if you ain't got no love

least i know my way back home
where the flowers bloom
the fireflies glow
when i take a midnight stroll
if i get lost along the way
i'll search for the words i wrote
and sing along to the tune that goes

"you might hit me with throws
and the low blows
put me on a ledge
keep me on my toes
but this is not the life i chose
if i'm down only god knows
i'll find the glasses colored with rose"

She leans closer to me
Kisses me and whisper in my ear

" Stop! Surrender!
  We are one, remember ? "

I smile and look her in the eyes
As i feel our bodies merging to the other side.

Words Of Harfouchism.

Sighs of the afternoon forest
Grow faint
Like ripples on the water
One after another.

Moments so close yet distant
I place on your lap
As the heart belongs to the wild.

Icing up the evening
Mountain blues of your eyes are
Now quiet at my palms.

We're only a thousand miles
Away from home.
The back and forth pace
behind the seal to individuality
a blurred plastic vision of a
mystery that could be joy
or utter sadness that maddens
or utter madness that saddens
the very soul of the soul and
the only spark that lives within
this state of mind, now may
remain or may not, on the
other side

From the darkness, thou departed
A crimson chasm of sorrow
Thy tears, a reflection
Of thy mother's misery

I was born with thee
My mother, light
My sorrow, pleasure
Yet, the sun shines on thee

Surely, thou can see
Me, though shrouded in darkness

No, not me
Thou
Can thou see thee
As well you cannot see me?

For though dark, though thine opposite
I was born in light
And light reveals me

But thou
'
The darkness is thy home

Yet, thou looks down on me
Indifference in thy stare
Thou used to fear me
Now I am hardly here

But I am here
Waiting
The light shall reveal me
But I am gone
When thy darkness comes

I told you lets meet on the other side
Next time I know our tombstones were beside each other

If I've sparked your interest
And you wonder why I'm diffrent
I won't let you wonder in vain
Let me take just a minute to explain

I've been shadow kissed
This fact can not be dismissed
I've passed through death's door, and returned again
Now the spirit in this skin is hard to contain
It's left a mark on my soul that is so plain

That's why I don't wear a mask
I'm not afraid of the feelings that I in bask
I lay it all out, my anger, my sorrow, my hopes, and my anguish
And in silence I no longer wanted to languish

The day I died my tiny world shook
And now I'm an open book

Habits **** friendships no matter even if you are close enough to be brothers, it is sad. Almost makes me feel like a horrible person, as maybe I should not partake and have a fun time as well.. And try to force them to do right, maybe I am not a true friend because of that.. I have the souls of the dead and the lights of the stars reflecting off the moon.. My energy's heart is at peace, that is all I need.. Your demons have nothing on me humans.. I am protected and loved by many more creations then your limited minds of this place.. There is so much more, many more doors then you could ever open, yet people are still stuck on learning simple things.. Maybe I should just end this flesh and hide behind those doors your so scared to open, you wouldn't miss me anyways I am not a needle.. You are not going to harm me anymore people and toss me into questioning who I am or if I am not being a friend to my fullest.. If you are a true friend yourself then you will always be able to find me behind one of those doors, until then blessed be to all people and sorry to all I have done wrong, yet if everything is for a reason and happens for you to learn something from.. Then should I be sorry? <3

I know what it's like
to see the other point of view
on life

You love it now
but you won't later

It hurts you
There is no one you can trust
On the other side

So please turn back around again
