Hey, how are you?
Are you grateful for this year?
Or are you mad because you can't go anywhere
because of the invincible disease that's floating everywhere
The disease that hinders your freedom
Or are you thankful because you had the chance
to know yourself more,
the chance to make up for the lost time with your loved ones
Or are you alone by yourself with nothing to do but
listen to the tick of the clock, the beat of your heart and
the classic beep of pure silence
Or does the loneliness that engulfs you acts as a therapy for your
broken soul,
Or is it just the fuel that feeds the monster inside
The monster that makes you vulnerable to your emotions,
The monster that keeps you up all night weeping,
The monster that's slowly drifting you away from being sane,
The monster who everyone calls a “phase”
But you call it depression.
Because no one understands the agonizing misery you’re going thorough
And instead of fighting for being in control
you just gave up and let it roam
because you are now tired of their judgment,
of their criticism,  
of their endless complaints.
But don’t worry you’ll get through this
You’ll make It through this.
Because you’re a warrior who survived war even without weapons.
How are you really...

Was once lively
Now not
Was well known
Now forgot
Born to thrive
And born to rot
But coffee's right
down the block...

Let’s learn to be creative
through the thinking of a little task
lift your head off this page
write what you see, may I ask?
(I see a large canvas of a half complete oil painting, that torments me)

Anne told me to love
Nate told me to stop
Noah screamed at me to trust
Isaac yelled at me to fall
Sarah convinced me that its alright
Aaron said its not okay

and i told them to shut up
then be buried

Hard enough to come to you
When you call me
My time is a sin
I broke that effort to rush that doors open
Windows making sounds and whispers
I felt that crying dogs are not good enough to  bark , so sick of your empathy
So sick of my friends and family.

“But he thought one genuine enquirer was worth fifty” PD James -The ****** Room
Odd Odyssey Poet Mar 2021
If could call myself an early death,
how'd I seize the day if I'm so stressed?
Knowing I'm blessed,
but also slightly depressed.

I'll confess it's hard
to see the best at your worst
While you question your worth.

Faces fail to display feelings,
high tensions over a room of low ceilings.
A wise bright smile,
with the loneliest man inside.
Who am I,
Mr Lonely Happy Wise guy.
