Selfishness is a Two-Way Street
The stigma to mental illness is present and obvious,
It lies deep within the minds and hearts of those who don't know it,
Why are so many quick to judge upon those who never wished for an illness forced on them,
Never given the chance to make a choice,
Protest what they wish didn't exist,
This weight given out as if it was some sort of gift,
They have heard the all clichéd words of advice,
Confronted by other's vice and ignorance,
Surprise to actually find that their families are the same,
One or the other way,
At a loss for what to say,
Perhaps they plead for them to stay,
Although there are the ones who see you as a burden,
Unconcerned for words said and actions done,
Either on the side that pushes a them off the edge,
Or the side that asks them to stay and live on in their anguish,
A never-ending cycle of living through the same exact torturous days,
Day,
After Day,
And even the Day after that,
So tell me now,
Which is dubbed to be more selfish?
Those wanting to finally end their suffering...
And aware there will be nothing more but a memory left of them...
Allow me to remind those reading,s
Pain heals overtime and the heartache you have will diminish until their memory is one to look back on and appreciate the memories left behind,
But when you ask them to stay,
Think of it like this,
They're now forced to live everyday for the sake of other's happiness,
Oblivious to the sorrow and despair of those who wish to please them,
Other's expectations of them to live a lifetime in a blatant suicidal state,
So when those who stayed alive and lived everyday for the sake of others,
Laying on their death-bed,
Knowing they lived too long of a life they never wanted,
Burdened by those who asked them to stay and others just oblivious to the reality of their suffering,
The only words they finally have left to say,
If only the ending my pain had finally happened sooner.
-‐----‐----------------------------------------------------------
So, tell me.
Who do you find to really be selfish in this case?

If you know how to love
Don't forget how to fear
Your mind is most stable
When thoughts are unclear

Not all feedbacks are meant to break the real you,
some are meant to break the image you have of yourself.

Words can't Express what I truly feel but I can let you know how I feel if that's Real! Dark thoughts bouncing off the walls in my brain, it's been like that ever since I used to abuse cocaine!
See I'm trying my best to change but still it's dark I can't see I'm Stumbling and fumbling didn't have much and when my high were off my stomach was rumbling! I look back and think wow!! I did that knowing damn well I don't want to ever go back! I fight demons daily and before they used to play me! Now I control them and they don't control me that's what I mean when I say dark thoughts are inside of me..
Thought I was finished? I could never be the way I write my poetry is from what's truly inside of me! Alot different than your normal but then again what is Normal! Evil laugh effect you thinking like what the heck?! Just give me a chance to enlighten your mind with these dark thoughts of mine!
Please love me and move on just leave me behind I'm used to pain I'm used to crying! Sometimes I go to the Lost & Found trying to find my Mind! It's the end of 2020 people turning up drinking Henny Henny while I'm trying to cope with feelings that aren't friendly..

Jazz
Come on Cat don't be so blue
I know a tune that will help you through
Close your eyes and listen to me
The beat is steady, fast and repeat
Blow that horn hard and softly
The music will guide you on the pages
Look far above the mountains
Sense something cool you dig it
The bongos are my friends as I slap my hands
On the smooth surface, the sound vibrate across the room
Go to the bathroom my friend this isn't the end
But now you're not feeling so down in the dumps
I'm proud I took you out of the dumps
Now snap your fingers for a job well done

Sugar coated ?
Sour numbness?
Dilute or concentrate them never ...
For a life may depend upon it...

Aksar..
Aksar waqt ke guzar jaane par,
Log afsos kiya karte hai,
Lamhe jo guzar gaye hai,
Kya wo laut kar aaya karte hai?..

Life a glass
It seems like we all live inside a glass box, thin and clear, the glass of love and emotions, the glass of feelings and trust,
but,
A small throw of stone, and a subtle noise, shatters it all, on the ground it comes, red droplets roll down, where it touches, it leaves us, but under the open sky, the heavy rain, and washes us!
with time,
Colour of the blood is diluted, bruises and cuts get cured, and we replace the glass again, with a stronger one, but, the fear, fear that a stone might break it again, remains!

Though you deserve something more but always remember that someone somewhere is working more harder than you for it.

In life we have times where we do well, and times where we go through hell and back no matter what we must stay on track every day is different as for me I'm on a mission to kill the evil within..only thing on my mind is literally my evil twin..in my brain playing games won't let me sleep..he says he will stay..I want him out screaming for help but when people ask me how I'm feeling he will say I'm feeling well. Knowing I'm not but I go on thinking to myself if I kill him that even myself will be gone. I just want peace and quiet but for now in my brain there is a riot! Will I ever find peace within? Or will it continue and soon I'll come to an end? Please tell me I wanna know..we'll be back soon..we have to go.

A new beginning is always good, however some bad habits may linger..to them I give them my middle finger,I don't want to die I want to live..I want to feel the wind rush through my hands, I want to look back and say Wow what a past..looking foward for the future but actually in the moment this is what I'm thinking.. I wish I had fancy words to say but I don't at the end of everyday I pray just so I can possibly see another day, pain has had me captured for so long now it's my turn to brake these curses and get moving on..life is so precious that at one point I hated it, never would of thought about changing it.
I used to wake up mad cause I woke up, does that make sense cause now I'm speaking in past tense, late nights were my mornings..mornings were my nights everything I was doing was wrong but felt so right..I want to live because I like the pain even though i want it to end my friend..better yet I'm here too say that I will win!! Emotions cause commotion but my soul has scars bigger than the ocean..you can drown if you get to close..I really do miss her but for own good she had to go!! I was too blinded by drugs to give her any of my attention or love..she put up with my stupid ways! Now I live with it everyday! I cry, I laugh, I smile..haven't Seen her in a while..tears turning to piles looking like floods, my old bad habits I can never show them love again! Because if I do that means the devil Won!!
A new Beginning is always Good.

In silence my Thoughts come to play, Demons knocking asking if they can stay..please be gone I say to myself but they don't care always having their way..truth be told I wish I never ever picked up a drug..hating myself with all my love. I drown in my thoughts feeling deeper than the ocean..if I explain this to my family or friends they might think I'm joking..I'm not a bad person just made bad choices I'm doing a little better now but the demons coming with full forces..like a nuclear bomb once the demons get in they leave the lights on..I can't sleep afraid to close my eyes..evil is the best master of disguise..family or friend can say they love you and at same time push the knife deeper in the back but all along you've been ready for the attack..may hurt a little but what hurts the most is not accomplishing the dreams you had when you were little..when I'm happy I'm happy, when I'm Sad I'm Sad..in the end this the only life I'll ever have.

I feel numb to pain..soul full of scars..never thought this would be the way. True colors come out in tough times..can't depend on anyone not even my mind..love is pain, I can't get you out of my brain..when I think of you..I'm not the same..Be happy & then sad, shit sometimes even mad. I'm a balloon full of emotions you pop it I might have to explode with Love because I need it. My old habits I don't wanna feed them, they hate..they tempt me..they even tell me they'll never forget me..I feel numb to pain.

My heart can only take so much pain. I've lost so much & have so much to Gain. Tears coming down like rain all this pain has effected the way I think In my brain. Wish I had someone to talk with but I'm just a lame.. feel like my friends are named Doubt. Sometimes feels like I have to shout just for people to hear me out. I just need compassion and love but promise I get none of the above. Hope you never feel this...lonely, hurt. Everyday I feel I'm gonna wake up alive under dirt.

The Naked Heart Part - 2
I've stumbled upon the pieces of my puzzled memories,
Reaching out to the orchestra of my favourite melodies,
I was called on the roads of absence by you,
Love on the edge of my heart, waved a debut.
The introduction was layered with an unfamiliar ease,
The Naked Heart published an aligned quiz,
The puzzled memories are now registered by a name,
I could see the chambers of my heart all in one frame.

I have skeletons that wanna just kick the door open and pour with emotion, I'm doing all I can to stay strong and above the ground but this pain in my heart it brings me down. I loved and didn't get love back right now I'm feeling like a train coming off the tracks, A wreck..a mess..better yet someone who doesn't belong so I forget..what it's like to feel happy. So used to pain I just wanna shine like the Sun after the rain.
