not always too positive



The world is moving so fast, i cant keep up 
Im not sure what to do anymore 
Life gets so overwhelming sometimes 
I often feel like i am suffocating. I cannot breathe 
Always being watched 
Constantly something i have to do 
Trying to pull it together but often falls apart 


Where do we go from here 
What truth am i supposed to see 
So so so lost 
And afraid to admit it 


Shame on top of shame piling up on each other 
The guilt of a bad day 
With only myself to monitor 


Hoping for better days 
But hoping that i stop hoping for better days 

apparently i'm not supposed to feel this way
always the victim
but at the same time i should follow my instincts
the burden of choice
i guess this is the "strength" of a mind
the weak and confused are left behind
Certainty conquers the material world

Being intimidated by the calmness of others
Mind in frantic hurry 
A search for something that’s supposed to exist within me 
Back to the old days 
They are embedded within me 


Constantly following rules 
Being killed by them slowly 
Spiralling out of control 
No love left to give 
Very little in the first place 


These emotions they come and go 
They are waves, i am an ocean 
Trying to reach land 
Never truly fusing 


Not a step forward 
Just slowly tilting in a certain direction

Going around in circles realization after realization
but the foundation never lies

Back there again i guess

pent-up angst

  lately haven't been giving off the brightest energy  something toxic gets to the best of me  can't see anyone in a positive light  or care enough to distinguish wrong from right  luckily ive grown fond of my inner self  and patient enough to listen to her  give enough silence to calm the chaos  reflect on the angst, smooth it out  give it time and you shall see, underneath all the fog  re-center and gain clarity  breathe it all out, don't thrash about  face it all internally 

all of this wondering

everything feels so all-consuming everything a whirlwind of confusion contradiction after contradiction an inescapable moment years flash before my eyes what have i done here? what have i seen? im still young they say but where have i been? every moment awake is a second lived every step a shift in direction what separates right from wrong what makes the correct path it all means nothing i am aware but i feel that time is swallowing me whole

utopia

heres a thought. what if we were all able to freely explore this life being completely aware of the processes occurring to us. And passively observing things that are not apparently within our control. If we observe life flexibly, knowing the cause and effect of the general idea of things. Everything will lose serious meaning. A fight with your friend. But both of you are aware that this anger stems from irrational self protection or lack of ability to accept an alternative option. This level of self-awareness will allow us to not only forgive ourselves for the things that we experience but be able to consciously alter our responses to things. Our world is so distracted in the surviving part. Just passing by. Just paying the rent. Just finding work. Even things that appear to be free are not. Passion is masked by want to succeed. Authenticity masked by the people we are meant to be. Ambition is thought to be admirable in western culture, why? Selflessness is thought to be ...
