#suppressed
teeth flash white, jaw snaps carnivorous, ravenous emaciated beastly, starving thing terrible in it's fury confined no longer violence, a staple peace is a foreign concept, home is where hearts stop primordial urge adrenal hunger, straining Against iron chains. calloused, chafed raw visceral instincts woken from a brumal sleep

The Caged Wild
I shed a tear today. It fell down my cheek Like battery acid Burning my spirit I shed a tear today Leaving me all weak Like an infection Attacking my body I shed a tear today Feeling very bleak Like a prison guard Trapping my mind

Shed a Tear
Most Human emotions are either nurtured in a cradle of freedom or in the cage of fear, Hide from the claws of admonished anger, Seek the warmth in cold December, Bloom in the fragrance of ardent breeze , An emotion obscured for it is digging cave indeed, Few are afraid to be prisoners of someone's cage, This Virginia Woolf once in her quote engraved, Few are servants, bleeding from the cathedral of usurper, This emotion endures in the name of hierarchical structure, An emotion, as fluent dancer, As if sipping the zesty elixir.

Emotions
Suppressed anger has a habit of rearing its ugly head when you least expect it and biting you on the ***

Suppressed Anger
Only in despair Do we truly seem to care but why need it go so far to realize, visualize   what was kept bottled now ajar

Clarity in despair
So many thoughts has been suppressed In fear of people Who often misunderstood Most of the times Feeling like a hypocrite For trying to understand What’s behind of a facade What is on the other side What has been beyond the line Without the intention to meddle But always caught up in the middle

Suppressed Thoughts
Never wanted to go beyond the reef But some unknown force is dragging me across. Want to stay behind As I’ve been warned. But that force Oh it’s too strong It keeps pulling me Even though I oppose Is this meant to be? Or is this a curse That I’ve put upon myself I want answers But they seem unclear That force; It's within me It drags me beyond that reef What once was my limit. Now, I am beyond Should I go back? Or should I go ahead? And find my future ahead In the unknown? My future, Is dark? Is it bright? Oh, the uncertainty Will this ever end? Or, will the darkness, itself Surround me until the light fades?

Limits...
People’s feet are hurting, dresses and shoes are a size smaller than theirs. They’re taking chances, and going to dances and the truer selves are calling for help. They’re dressed in their nicest, their inner screams are the quietest. Under the gleaming smiles, their broken, imperfect selves are quietly calling for help. The smoothest white marble floor lies, in the reflection they seem to be perfect while they’re numb inside. Living corpses are calling for help. They’re breathing slowly, to cope with the swift dancing. The masses are strategizing and scheming on how not to call for help. All is calm and feelings are suppressed. Suddenly! Chandeliers are falling, glass is on the dance floor and hoofers are calling for help.

Calling for help.
May it only be a dream... composed in one. Nightmares shaking inside me. I drown myself so deep, where the water begins to reap. I love to hold you, to feel you, but who are you? Where are you? Why aren’t you here with me? Why so distant? Why haven’t I met you? You don’t exist. My imagination. Stringing myself in my realms of pure intensity. An ocean on fire ... A war with no winning ... A person with no belonging ... A rage with no fist ... Suppressed, inner rage, inner love, inner hate, inner sadnesses, inner longing, inner numbness, inner cold, inner emptiness. Inner distractions.... I face them all at once. Inner wisdom... An old soul living in a fake world. Take me out of here.

Feelings
I have this backpack every time I want to cry or scream or yell I take the feeling and I place it in a jar and I zip it up in my backpack its amazing really, how many jars this one bag can hold see, I've never emptied it or even set it down because I'm afraid if it leaves my shoulders everything will spill out and all the jars I've sealed will break open and I'll hear it I have this backpack and its getting heavy so heavy

the weight
Feeling unkempt from shortness of breath Brain functions less as cloud covers ahead Given a rest when energy spent Lungs are suppressed No control in the chest Closeness too dense Muffled words left to float in the air Stifled and drowned Faint from the crown Blood pressure down Warmth idling for me not to care Few beads of sweat, heat heavy and wet Recovery yet but soon on the mend

Humidity
Afraid? Of what? Of what's inside of me. How evil Dangerous Destructive Could it be? I am my own careful detective Investigating parts of me That I myself have hid For years quite stubbornly Will I be able to rejoin All parts of me together? Will I be able to enjoy The wholeness then forever? It's not as easy to put into words It feels as if I had maybe two hearts There's one that tries to be so nice But underneath it lies... Another one, the dark and rough, That one was made by times so tough That really it just cannot smile It has its own dark heavy style I'm digging deep to see My fear is growing though That's how I managed to ignore My darkness for so long But finally, for feelings' sake, I gotta stop before it's late I need to see and to admit Who am I underneath the dry smile That I have been practicing for a long while Scared of losing myself? Maybe. But I gotta risk it, Don't I? After all I just know That my darkest side Does deserve the attention Of my soul and mind It's a part of me I'll express it in arts Before my dry fake smile Dries out both of my hearts.

Two hearts
I am the one who was thrown out of hell. The sins that I committed, Here, my silence gonna tell. Listen, you dear people, Nothing in my life was ever simple. Cursed being a birthmark, I have been falling over a deep dark. If it's in my heart or in my mind, I wish to keep everything everywhere just aligned. But wait, I am actually a sinner, Roaming in this materialistic world being a grinner. Crying so hard deep down inside though it's my dry eyes, It's enough of stucking below the heavy skies. For so many years, I heard my own screaming, But this corpse ended up her identity without revealing. Sinner, For heaven, not designed From hell, left behind And this earth rejected her for mankind.

Discarded Existence and Death
Suppressed Into nothingness Never allowed to be who I am I just want some freedom I don't care what it is I want to dye my hair purple And get a nice lip ring I want gauges in my hears And to get some more piercings I want to get a tattoo One that says, 'fuck you' I also what some help To not feel so suppressed I have never been myself Even when I am around people I love Because no one really likes me Though I like to be myself, it's fun All that I'm saying, is it's just a little dye A little hole in my skin That will go away when I'm done Please oh please Just let me be myself I want to be different I'm currently somebody else I know you don't get body art Or the fact that it's just as beautiful as a poem I know that you wouldn't want to look at me Even though I'm stuck in your home All I'm asking Is for you to allow me an identity This person that I am right now Is not the real me I just want some help To not feel so suppressed

Communicate
Like the sun my mind sets, like the moon my heart comes in power
; the emotion filled tides rising and crashing. Like a waterfall my emotions flow, like a volcano words escape. 
Suppressed emotions unveiled 
letting words with no logic escape for the words are true, 
the emotions are pure
 allowing the ones around me to hear my secrets as they divulge
, catch a glimpse of vulnerability , raw and honesty 
that are veiled by the morning light.

Unfiltered Late Night Version
If you know me. I write from many a different mind. Yes, they're all mine You cannot quell my thoughts. I refuse. No, I absolutely fuckin' refuse. You cannot **** what's in my head. I'll do that myself. When I am dead. Kaydee

Poisoned Without Consent
The Master The Master had a dog And a docile goat. Once he went through Jungle in the boat. There, he left his dog Known as bad hat. The dog returned home And received a pat. The Master's was then A sweet darling pet. It made the dog happy, The goat very upset. The goat annoyed none, Made no mistake. Still she was tied up to A rusty iron-stake. S. Bharat

The Master
I’m hiding myself again. I don’t mean to, It’s just easier to not deal With relationships Amongst others. I can only take on my stress, And I’ve been trying to teach myself that For years. It’s not that I don’t know that it’s unhealthy, I think that it’s more habitual. Which is pretty horrid, That I’ve already formed this habit of self isolation. But it’s so much easier to deal with. I’d rather have no friends at all Than a chance of losing them.

Burrowing-
We, the voice of the most oppressed, Work in the profession remaining the most humble, Throughout histories, as slaves our lives still remain tumble, With our strangled necks, we are deliberately suppressed For the centuries, our voices remain unheard, Like a weeping fish at the sea, We are treated zombies at the rush of a blood, Collecting by hand, the human society’s poops & pea Things for us got intensely worse, We work as a group with an isolated curse, For our livelihood, go into manholes as bare-bodies Mostly get out as dead-bodies From pathology to oncology, We are treated untouchables, even by the modern technology We are the oxygen-offering trees that remain green Hurting ourselves, collecting excreta making this world neat &clean With our hand-cuffs we shout and fight, Rulers remain drunken-deafs to our plight, Hell with your knowledge, to those who go to college And keep pushing us to the drainage, We remain living dead and frustrated, to get our right When asked about work, we remain dumb and blind, Fearing the responses to our ***** revelations, Because humans are unemphathetic and unkind To get our life some elevations. Our mind said us “Please think! Please Think!” When we revolt not to work, societies stink, We warn, Witness your locality ***** To our sufferings, if you keep blank & empty. We are a collective voice, Representing inhuman humanity, That keeps the society on a poise, So raise your voice, with a clarity of choice To get us work with the utmost dignity!

This bucket of mine Has become a curse I add to the pile And it adds a verse I keep it hidden And tucked away But its made apparent Each and every day I add to this bucket And the weight piles on This facade grows heavy Tearing down my con I fill this bucket Up to the top And when its full It proceeds to pop I cry and I scream As I make ammends This bucket of mine That I cant show to my friends I've grown up now But my bucket has not It wears its cracks From the battles I've fought
