she could swallow me whole
this is but the man in me
losing form
of
taking control

what have her elbows taught me

how tough are yours

from peace sighns to

where are we

who are

yous

less reading me

i
am
nothing

minus you

attraction

games

play

ing

teach me how to breathe

there is more than silence left in me

paciefied one line after an
other
how
you
calm
me
is
it
I
this
mere
shell
of
an
man
inhali­ng more than I am


what from for have I
when my words mean nothing to man
who are you to read
is it my time
be
yawned
by waste

what waste have you bought

to think that I

would want

to

touch you there

how dare your thoughts

how dare they

dare me

who

has

spoken over you

from what streets have you bled

that you sorrow couldn't be felt

in the depths

of

mine streams

what is this

she could swallow

me
whole
?
where your heart bleeds
it
...

Ugh
Family, that's what you wanted
Nothing more
I'm sorry that's not what I was looking for.
I hurt you, but it's what I do to family.

I've done it before
An accident, a mistake
It's because I'm passionate.
Just escape my world.
Ugh

Who Would Want To Be World Famous?

Who would want to be world famous?
This, the planet so humongous,
Virtuous and villainous,
Full of goodness, full of badness.
Who wants to expose himself’
To the injustices of pelf
That lay in wait upon the shelf of fates unknown?
I’ve come to think: Remain un-shown,
Roof up above, food for the day,
A bed on which to lay your head,
Doing what you’re born to do,
Meant to fulfill you
Without pushing for reward.
Those who aim for fame today
Go absolutely the wrong way.
That’s it – and all I have to say.

An ocean apart,      but a bridge is built
and old souls meet on      the road less travelled.
21:20 - 09/07/17

State of mind: joy; peaceful.
Perspective: personal; spiritual.

Thoughts: from thinking - about impossible dreams. There is something instinctive about striving after goals that are hard to reach or have never even been thought of before. To achieve this is to have walked the road less travelled.

The fourth part - 'the road less travelled' - is inspired by M Scott Peck's book of the same title. The overall message of the book correlates with that of this dyad, which is that love is not necessarily a feeling but an activity... such as a dance, I would say.

Questions: would you care to dance?

Listening to: Ed Sheeran - Perfect.

Dreaming of what it would be like
to be older
having your hair go grey
and the nights seeming to get colder

Everyone all around
asks you what you want to be
of course
"helpful to society"
but don't forget your dreams
they will stay with you forever
even when things
don't get better

Dreaming of being the first
Dreaming of being the best
Dreaming of having a life with no stress

Silly kids
dreams are
deleted scenes

There are some who walk      calmly through darkness
because they know how      to kindle a light.
00:00 - 23/06/17
State of mind - calm; thoughtful.

Thoughts: from thinking - about creativity and how amazing it is that human's can bring such wonders into this world.

Also from conversations - on talking about extroversion and introversion with my friend. I put it so introversion is like kindling a light in darkness and extroversion spreads that light. They are both instrumental and equally valuable qualities in a person.

Questions: can it be said that creativity is the instinct to create a nature of our own?

...Or is it that our nature creates us specifically as a creative tool of its own?

sometimes you enter the maw of the beast;
severed heads lie around still watching,
and you march forth into the bowels of hell
fighting off fears, horrors and demons
own and foreign
for the ultimate prize
taking home the devil
