#unclear
Occasionally, when I rarely look in the mirror, I see a different face, and to my horror, He says words I'd never say, He loves to act deranged, Making my mental landscape unclearer. I guess I'm a stranger to myself, Can't tell me from anyone else. Just a somber ghost, A parasite without a host. I'll just gaze into the mirror, And try to recognize who I see.

A Stranger To Myself
for instance, I felt the yearn to feel love an arm surrounds an unclear path of blue, rejuvenating it is; I’m above, yet unanswered questions linger; seek clue, art thou afraid to love like juliet? hands unclasped; bent knees and silent prayers.

love like juliet
I wish I knew what you were thinking It's killing me to be so unclear Never able to catch up, I'm sinking In a sea of gray, and you're nowhere near Grabbing desperately at clouds That were only ever in my head Pleading, wishing, shouting out loud Wishing to be natant - I can only tread Won't you shed a little light? The waters are deep and I cannot swim.. Won't you tell me if I'm right? Aching all over, my chances look slim Don't you know I need a little rest? You've grabbed my heart, left your mark And even when I'm trying my best.. Don't you know I'm afraid of the dark?

The Dark
It's been a while since I've felt her felt tip scratch through the surface Deep into my soul to take me out of hiding -x- I remember how we parted I regret not saying goodbye And in a text back to a midnight apology She had promised that she would write She left an empty canvas and a naive head full of dreams and thoughts she never coloured that festered deep within I tried to draw her contours, the little hat she used to wear and beneath it, to recollect the texture of her hair But her pencils betray me They don't want me to tell her tale or mine if ever I was part of it So I chose these words instead Reams of paper in my cabinet Meant for her delicate brushes Black and blue stains of poetry adorn them Like scars of sin on skin, permanent. A million Gods to pray to You'd think I was spoilt for choice For my devotion was never aimed at them, perhaps they do not heed my voice -x- It's been a while since I've felt a felt tip scratch through the surface That provoked my senses to come start fighting I'm hanging on.. I'm hanging on.. But for how long?

The Girl who drew better than I did
This clouded mass mess seems stuck in my head riddling my thoughts

Mist/y
The weight of your head, like the whole globe on your shoulders, the world on one neck, the ache of one body. I’m tired, like all of the stress simply sits on my dreams
 while I’m trying to sleep it away, but I don’t get a break- not even one day. At least the bowl isn’t red anymore, at least the sun is alight. But I’ve ached for a year now, and it’s still so unclear how I will heal, or if ever I will. Keep sunny, keep yellow, like the lilies in bloom which sit on the drawers at the end of my room. The weight of my head, like the whole globe on my shoulders, the world on one neck, the ache of one body.

Sick
The hope, that I am hoping is so unclear The mirage that I am seeing is not here. This is a hope or this is a mirage, I can not recognise Hope is nothing as it seems, Is this all are lies? But hopes are unbreakable! Hopes are just unbreakable!

Hope or mirage
Vague, a word used for uncertainity Vague, a word used for unclarity Vague, a word used for your sincerity You know why your sincerity? Because your love for me is uncertain Even a telescope cant see it clearly For it possess so much unclarity You should accept me Not because i accept you Accept me Because you accept me Love me Not because i love you Love me Because you love me

Vague
Loving you is making me crazy. Some days all I have is a head full of maybe. Unconditional fits in my mouth like your hand does in mine. Alone, my hands search through your puzzles trying to find peace of mind.

Honesty puzzle: missing pieces
I am a normal person with normal problems I wonder about everything, but nothing I see what everyone can see I want everything a person could want I am a normal person with normal problems. I pretend to be a real person in a broken society I feel the false happiness of the people around me I touch corrupted beliefs with my fingers I worry about everything, but myself I am a normal person with normal problems. I understand people trying to be something they’re not I say things that you will not remember because you don’t care about others I dream about a perfect, but impossible future I try to make it better, but it never works I hope people could understand it before my death I am a normal person with normal problems.

Society
Cloudy; my world is hazy tound the edges. I’m walking with a vignette filter on my eyes, like glasses I can’t remove. But I’m sober, I think. I’ve been high, yes, most days; but not today. I’ve drunk, yes, always too much; always ending in aches and some sorrow; but that was last night; not today. I already know that tomorrow’s forecast is cloudy too.

past in a glaze, a veil of haze, cannot reminisce, lost time with you.

I’d rather honestly Spill my feelings With my words Than, Rely on Ambiguous actions

Flaws
Colours mixing with each other there is a new colour born a new shade taking the new shape blinding the landscape spiralling out of control not in hold spilling its content without intent ripping over and under unclear emptying till it disappears it is gone now.

New Material
She points to him And says he was the one My heart hinders And my mind goes numb For weeks I told her of my pain The way my heart fluttered At the mention of his name Now this news comes to late For my heart has taken another shape- This shape is her But she'd already hooked And even if she wasn't She's not the kind to give me A second look

Cloudy Heart
Music in your ear. Calms your mind. Calms your world. Screams turning into tears. Water dripping from your face. Water dripping from your soul. An unconscious mind. Not able to understand reality. Not able to understand normality. Floating in false beliefs. With a confused thinking. With a unclear thinking. Involuntary presence. Lack of motivation. Lack of creation.

Wind Pulling Me Away
We say we're fine But broken hearts don't hide from eyes We say we're friends But conversation stopped at our relationship end We say we're back to normal But we look the other way We say we're moving on But we avoid each other like plague We say we'll stay together But you left with no words So I pulled you back To say a proper goodbye We don't say anything Because there's nothing left to say

the world used to be so clear & bright yet now, it became so blurry & unclear like standing in the middle of a fog, like driving through heavy rain -e.i

:blur
My ceiling stares back at me as I yawn My eyelids feel heavy yet I can't sleep Yet here I am, wide awake 01:00 - The usual time 02:00 - The new normal 03:00 - I might miss my alarm if I don't sleep I stare at my ceiling as I think My thoughts are jumbled Messed up, unclear 04:00 - Is there a point in sleeping at all 05:00 - Barely any sleep time left now 06:00 - An hour until I hear the song Now there's no point at all I rub my eyes and I yawn Yet another sleepless night

Sunrise
a downpour the season in which I was born, baby shower- we made a pond, now let's insert a pun... oh wait, it's already done but it was a bad one i guess i'm still wet behind the ears.. oh **** another one, slip of the tongue, and i'm all washed up from the stress it's absurd but i'm drowning in the rain- a bad metaphor for negative over thinking maybe. though by the way i have a paper heart and i'm stuck in the rain, won't anyone save me? guess not i'll get high with my words just to fill a hole of emptiness brought by confusion and doubt, to blur out noises from outside with noises from the inside, a distraction through a mute facade of confidence and an assurance to myself that i am okay. it's convoluted i know; from making puns to emotional grunts, it doesn't make sense- i don't make sense

rain.
In these few days Nothing feels right Emptiness you had felt revealed itself that night Our unanswered questions Starting with no good byes Was unclear for us to realize That we didn't see the signs Slowly, the truth unfolds to the pain you had felt It trickles into our hearts What more could we had done If only you had said... yet you did... It was so settle... Maybe you found the answers you needed I just wish you would of shared it Cause here we all are now With no answers In this time of healing Please know, that we Love You Please know, that we all would of helped If only you had asked
