"ourselvs" poems
Across a void of space and time far away from where I am supposed to be, but a lot closer to myself Headed away from home but towards it at the same time All I have is a select few thoughts packed into boxes Boxes that I treat as if they're a part of me From boxes on wheels to boxes that fly, To boxes that clearly say, "I live as if I'm never going to die." We go looking for more boxes, boxes that we places parts of ourselvs in And sometime we decide it's time To give away a box or two After all that we've been through Castles built of boxes tumble time and again And yet we build, for boxes will always be available at a bargain They say "No need to carry your own boxes, let us do it for you!" And while you're waiting on your boxes; Here, it's on us, have a brew Boxes of color, boxes of shapes Boxes that distinguish us based on our drapes Drowning in a sea of boxes, can we barely see land But thankfully whenever you want to move your boxes, there's always someone to lend a hand

Boxes
The spark of the lighter, a noise forever ingrained in my mind and dear to my heart. It warms my fingertip as it will soon warm my lungs. I bring the flame up to decorated glass. Swirls of pink and blue, sparkling under the dim light. They look as if they are tangable, like I could reach in and pick them up and feel the softness of the colors in my hands. Cradling the intricate designs, as the designs cradle the green that brings ease to my mind. I inhale. Burning from green to black before my eyes. Heat in my throat. Burning so good, hitting deep in my chest and everything that has run wild finally falls into place. I exhale. We rest on porches, stay wraped in the protection of backseats, or let the manicured grass hold us as we stare up into the unknown. We are facinated by the unknown, That of the world and ourselvs. We explore through a window newley opened, savoring every second of the breeze that we have discovered.

Unknown therefore Untitled
we dream our desire, we do it and admire, we seek diffrent way to walk, we want diffrent people to talk, we take diffrent paths and rides, we love to do this because it multilplies, our thrill which **** our fears, because fear brings tears, we meet new people we intoduce ourselves to them, then we start making them to realise, that we are now a part of ther lives, and we also start caring about themselves, to keep ourselvs alive, we choose the best things we see, we bring new thoughts to do beat the, king of time 'the clock', we learn new things, so that we have proud and tricks, to tackle new problems, and become  hero within ourselves, developing ourself strong is our aim, if we are not able to do it then we blame, our situations ,surroundings & others, but we never see what we have done & we are just saying that i does'nt matters, and say i am always right, it's the human nature which is litte bit dark little bit bright..
