...See more Happy place When I was younger I had this dream Now I know how funny it would seem Guys in pink and girls in blue Never ever could that be true Balloons and ribbons, back when colors weren't forbidden Careless and free, so self ridden But for someone like me, life just felt extraordinary So merry Exactly like fiction for many Unfortunately, for the older me, these colours were bright and shiny But in a way only I could see It was my happy place, the paper and the color The paper, still there, but the color is nowhere to be seen My mind and this pallete have something in common, so empty and barren Would it really be a sin if they both long for some kin? Green skies and blue grass Brown leaves and green stalks Black flowers and purple rain That color that didn't stain When really, all these efforts are in vain All those colors down that drain It's only red now, the color of my blood but atleast I could still see color yall Maybe that's what growing up is about Color blindness I assume Or maybe just neglect at resume I could ramble on for ages An artist's mind when free of cages Black flowers don't stand out to me Neither does purple rain Damn I really must have gone insane.

...See more MILES TO KILOMETERS Foreign land Foreign language and foreign culture Foreign me foreign you and foreign gesture Sorry for the delay took me time to figure out the path But it was traffic that made it hard "The road was clear today" you say? It wasn't. Not the concrete built road The road to my existence The road to my home Emotional experience in simpler terms Never received any warning that it would get uncomfortable Changed my name and changed my mind or leave this messed place behind and no one's gonna know How would they know if you don't know it yourself? "It pains me to see you struggling, "the younger me said The older, just smiled and nodded ahead For both these versions are so very different One more thing to do with your efferent A church reverend Booo. The mask is off The face is upfront The wrinkles and darkness so so clear But she loves it accepts it. It's what make her her But the mask is off The face is new for people not near And they'd tell you, I'd prefer you with your mask on and maybe that's exactly why they are not near.

...See more Home I am a stone on the inside rotten in the core, flesh torn and sore from pain I am so so far away from home But I kind of outgrew the whole plan A plan? Yes there it was A new beginning a new start Turns out grief follows you everywhere Doesn't care about your name or age It just does seep in after all The days are easier to manage Not many questions raised about the jackets in a hundred degree weather The nights are usually tougher The moonlight from my window shining right in my eyes I want to be the moon Not to someone else My own little moon Maybe the moon is my home It's calling out to me and I feel it in my dead bones Who knew that the loudest girl in the room wasn't really her own perfect moon I always thought that if I left it all and became a part of the moon would I be able to leave it soon But the human mind, the only humane quality left in me worked in a mysterious way I grew comfortable in my misery No longer my hands hurt, my mind starts to Throwing me away from my moon So the hands have to hurt all the time so the mind can never be wild enough This is my life now A survival show Bravery I did show Courage had to go It's so empty and hollow inside But ironically so much more than that going on Why do I feel everything even when my heart is of stone It creeps in through walls I see it but can't do something about it too lazy to walk "What's the worst thing that could happen " Happens every day and all day It's just that the sun could never be pretty enough so as for the moon
