Senses smothered in filth, wails in repugnance, isolated from immoral.

NAVARASA#4: DISGUST
You are my phobia The darkness that covers the night Who obscures my line of sight And the reason why my courage took flight You instill this crippling fear Everytime when you are near I could not help but cry a tear Even my strength would not adhere

Phobia
Your words, They sting. So sharp, But not sharp enough to pierce through, Only to stay lodged beneath my skin. So that every time someone brushes by, I hurt. Funny thing, You care, Like a mother should. And yet still, I can see you, When you're old, Regretting, You're alone.

A Few Complaints
they say that’s out. No dice. Preposterous. Absurd. Went completely unheard. That was then; this is now. Now is sober reflection in direction. Now is routine. The rest unseen. Now is habit falling into havoc. Now is empty.. whats your trend? To apprehend ****

inflicted contempt
Sad people and dark shadows in a multi-leveled palace of misfortune, aversion to anything, internal hostility towards everyone, my mask exposed to a test of time... Will I endure? I do not know. I run away to the farthest corners of my palace, to hide from the world.

No title.
My skin is crawling. Touch makes me very angry I can't stand the thought of a room full of people looking at me like I've grown an extra head. Or maybe I've grown fangs to match my biting words? Are they glaring now? Good. My cold behavior is putting people off and i'm roughly shoving people aside No, I don't want to hug them, No, i'm not trying to be rude, no, i'm not sick I'm not sick I'm not sick. Tonight, I feel like a monster please don't touch me.

Tonight, I Feel Like a Monster
Follow love around, even though I don't want you -- or you flee from me.

[ Follow love around ]
He is also there, listlessly looking away -- we mumble hello.

[ He is also there ]
that comes along at 3 a.m. to wake me from the dreams I’ve been living in. An unwanted visitor that doesn’t leave, as I try to get rid of it, push it away with desperate hands waving in the dark tranquility of early morning. A visitor here to teach me all the ways we resist the world, all the ways we wish we were elsewhere, trying to control what’s not ours to control. Desperately waving our hands around as if that would do it. As if, as if what we want matters to the world. One mosquito can ruin everything; you can turn on all the flashlights, stay up until 5, but you won’t see it unless you do, standing there on the edge of the wardrobe. With a certain resolve: “smack.” Gone, away with your worries, and now you can return deep into your dreams. If only we could smash away the problems, all that buzzes around in our heads, all questions unanswered, all that torments us deep into the night. “Smack.” Gone.

An Unwanted Visitor
Lean, the hands rough skin A hoarse greeting with holes between my sand gnashing teeth: a scary person I am everywhere because nowhere I'm allowed to be, give me shoes: as long as I walk I live Call me Job, I don't believe God will save me from the underworld where it's warm in winter till midnight when the doors close. Whether I hope to wake up from the cold I don't know, maybe I'll do what you do and push it into the future Then it doesn't exist
