#scattering
We’re drift dots... Our bodies are bulletins behaving badly, running when we feel free– [afraid of our news feeds]... With nowhere to hide, we’re learning psychological acrobatics to climb ahead of us inside... With half our child’s eye missing, we’re mending and pretending, eyes set on our marvel... Here, these humble bumble bees, clumsy and dignified, redefine... Because there is more to us than our dull diaries suggest; than these pressured, parasitical playgrounds repress... As we’re turned into clones in these city messes, we’re reminded of home in the simplest of places... Our hyper-perceptive, cybernetic surge is tearing through us, and we’re drift dots searching, scattering timeless new love.

Drift Dots
To the nights When thoughts become to loud Making me loose my sleep Thinking why is it has to be this way From thinking why it had to be that way To the nights When I am too numb to even fall asleep When I can't even feel my heartbeat From these thoughts taking over me To the moment when I can't breath To the nights From wanting this feeling to last forever To end this by all means From screaming till I can't breath But deciding to stay silent till i suffer in deep. To the nights When I cry till I fall asleep To staring at the ceiling till the night leaves From rembering every mistake To rembering why everyone who left without saying goodbye. To the nights When I wish I could just die To wanting to have this feeling till it takes over me From thinking about every person who left me To realising how I lost myself along the way. To the nights With scattering thoughts.

Scattered thoughts
I must have dropped my dreams at some point, Because all of the sudden they were on the floor. 'Be careful!' I exclaimed. 'We are,' they claimed. They weren't. Suddenly my dreams were being stepped on. I thought it would be okay, But then I realized They were shattered. My dreams! They were crushed by the careless acts of someone. They said they would be careful Now everything I ever wanted is broken, Shattered with all hope lost. Crunch. The sound they made when the fateful action occurred. My "loved one" so thoughtlessly stepped, They knew, I told them, and they didn't care. All hope lost and my dreams scattering with every second. I wept.

'My Dreams!'
I am losing myself Everything is crumbling shattering snd scattering. Masks are coming off Truth is coming to light. Fake ones start to claim their identity and people are leaving, the ones I thought wouldn’t leave. The light escapes me and dull colors swift past me. I have lost my care I have lost my love Lost my innocence And lost my guilt. Everything that made me, me Is now gone. So tell me, is it me who you’re looking for? Because that girl is breathing no more.

Losing my identity
