Everybody should do at least two things each day that he hates to do, just for practice.

I feel so alone. Truth is I am.
Knees on the sand with tears in my hands.
Fighting in the darkness, fighting against time.
Finding a way to keep lit, this little light of mine.
Dearest somebody somewhere please hear my plee.
Help me find peace in this world, help me remain me.
Share your life stories, teach me all that you know.
Listen to mine, be there for me as I grow.
I feel so alone, Truth is I am.
Accepting nothing seems to go quite like its been planned.
Almost as soon as I get excited.
The darkness gets delighted.
Ive noticed the pattern, so walk a different path.
Still see lifes flames, still feel its wrath.
I tried to continue on for as long as I can.
But I no longer see a way, Ive ran out of land.
Goodbye my loved ones, sunshine, rain.
Goodbye universe, the sea and my pain.
So many times it was written, my apology and my goodbye.
Each paper smeared with tears I had cried.
Even with no response, my deepest feelings I would share.
I was sure some how someone some where would care.
It became a ritual though even now the reason why im not certain.
But Id tell the universe often how I felt like the biggest of burdens.
How the weight on the world has me brought once more to my knees.
How if I could be granted more strength Id be still willing to please.
For I have enough hope, its positivity I need.
Ive sacrificed all I have, and Im willing to sacrifice myself.
All I ask is that my kindred be happy and remain in good health.
But maybe theres a way to grow out of my present self.
End a phase and start a new book for lifes shelf.
Maybe being so lost just happened to be fate.
Maybe theres some magic to knowing how to wait.
Lately its been a challenge just to stay focussed.
As I fell under a ferocious hypnosis that has me feeling atrocious.
But im certain my absence not one soul would notice.
Then I overcome this overwhelming feeling, inner song plays a new beat.
Refusing to be under the category labeled defeat.
I raise to my feet, with head held up high.
I know my limits are those beyond the sky.
Regardless of speedbumbs my soul will continue to try.
And Ill cherish each memory, the dark with the light as they both pass me by.
Watching the probable and impossible Intertwine.
Odd against me seem astronomical but ill keep trying.
Fight with all I have to stop my soul and this world from dying.

Sleep
Kiss me feather soft,
A brush of your lips on
My brow, so that I may
Finally wear the tint of
Innocent love on the
Brown of my charred skin,
Hug me fiercely,
Make your passion
Squeeze my heart,
So that the shade of
Grief spills out of my
Eyes, big, fat, black tears,
Let me sit in your arms
Under the midnight sky,
The world all hues of green and
Blue around us, and let me
Cry about the things that
I never got to mourn,
I have been the war, the
Warrior and the battlefield,
Look at my armour of steel,
How it has turned crimson,
Tell me I can strip off my
Armour and bare to you
My deepest wounds, make me
A quilt of your love, softer than
Roses, warm as the sun, yet
White like the moon, and
In your arms, let me sleep

Mind
The sun is just a yellow dot
In the faraway sky, what can it
Do to warm my skin, when there is
A winterstorm in my heart?
The sea is cold, but even as I
Embrace its waves again and again,
It doesn't give me any solace,
How could it, when my blood is
Wildfire running through my veins?
Garden of Eden, the nectar of heaven,
I have tried them all, but where does
One run to, when one becomes a
Thunderstorm, what is wilder, I
Wonder, is it the world or my mind?

Distortion
The lines are getting blurred
Between
Myself and the pills
Who am I anymore?
Take the red pill to feel numb
What behaviours are even my own anymore?
Take the blue pill to feel everything
There is no in-between
Just a tired me
Jumping to each extreme

Butterfly
Like a Butterfly
Trapped beneath tombstones
Of unopened yesterday's
She lies
A beauty for the eyes to behold
Written off as ghastly in the sun glistens
Yet fails to hit just right
She will not die today
Cries shatter the still night
Moonlight now casts it's shadows
Haunting
Taunting
Today was not your day
Tonight not your night
So comes and speaks tomorrow
That today, today might

Panacea Tricks;
Sleep Deprivation
I'll try the teas, the tinctures, the elixirs for dreams.
Anything to spell-cast my body to sleep.
And they work; mystifying my body to ease.
But my mind fights on this post-traumatic disease.

He broke my heart
Tore me apart
I cant explain
How much i'm in pain
Thought he loved me so
Guess he didnt if i was that easy to let go
As much as i want to regret
Its proven difficult to forget
The memories torture me every day
I wish i could just run away
I wish i didnt miss him at all
I wish i could get back up after i fall
But i'm constantly exhausted now
Lost him but also lost myself somehow.

The Raven
A raven trapped in a rabbit hole so desperate to get out.
The raven finds it's way with help and pride, however the world outside filled with lies; drives the raven deeper in the hole.
The hole then began to fill up with water and the help from before turns darkly into thorns.
The raven goes and goes trying to reach the light.
Till this day I the raven am still fighting for life.
But I the raven am not worthy.

I JUST THOUGHT THAT'S HOW I AM...
So many young adults avoid their emotional and mental issues because society leads them to believe that that's a part of their personality.
The old Marathi saying स्वभावाला औषध नाही (Bad attitude can't be cured) is actually false! So many kids, young adults have stayed depressed, angry, lonely, or "act in a bad attitude" just because they thought that's how they are.
Mental health education has tremendous benefits it helps you recognize ones differences, patterns and even flaws and with proper therapy and medication can potentially even cure or manage the "bad behavior".
It's 2021, things need to change. Mental health needs to be normal and more talked about. -

'Sitting on the edge' -
She's sitting on the edge now,
She wonders what if and how.
One hit would stop it all,
For all they know it was a simple fall.
The sun starts to rise it's a new dawn,
Maybe there is a love out there this warm.
She's got to be the one to catch herself in this fall,
Through this she may find a love that tops them all.
This doesn't mean it will get easier over night,
But this life of hers is worth the fight.
From the edge she looks down,
With thoughts that could make her drown.
She looks up into the sky,
The free birds away they fly.
The wind beings to blow through her hair,
Carrying her sorrows gently through the air.

It is important to make sure
you aren't crafting a prison
for yourself
out of your personality.

You laud my grace, you applaud my strength
But you won't allow me to describe my misery at length.
You all love how I've been handling my mess,
But none will know the truth that I've only told my pillow and the cold, empty side of the mattress.
"You'll heal, you'll come out stronger than ever", you all chant, in unison.
But you don't understand that positivity might be your magic potion but to me, right now,
It's just poison.
A poison that is being forced down my throat and I go blue with each drop.
You see I was a pallette full of colors, everyone wanted a shade of me for their canvas,
But none want the black & white & the grey of my ashes.
Ashes that are left of my burning heart.
The flames of my heart are choking everyone around me, and I wish they wouldn't.
I wish I could put out the fire but I couldn't.
So I cry for help, help with some water...
Just enough to calm those flames down,
Just a hug to calm those nerves down.
But know when to stop. Stop when I ask you to.
As I wish not be smothered with that hug, or drown in that water.
Yes I will heal, yes I will bloom again.
But right now, my dearest, let me sit with my pain.

Losing it
Out of chaos
Out of dissent
Out of confusion
Out of pretence
Out of avoidance
Out of indignation
Out of destruction
Out of retaliation
Out of disorder
Out of delaying
Out of delusion
Out of portraying

Nobody cares;
But don't let that kill you slowly inside
You don't need validation to be happy

The release
There are 2 reasons we get a song stuck in our head, for either creation or release.
Music is not only connected to the energy system inside of us, and the whole of the universe. It is present during times in our emotional development.
Because of that, there is often a soundtrack accompanying our deepest emotional wounds. This is where our energy got stuck due to not having an avenue of safety and comfort to be released in.
Listen to the song stuck in your head. Hold compassionate and kind space for whatever emotion(s) arises, for as long as you need to. This is one of the many ways we gain emotional freedom.

An injured nervous system sends signals for help, that in our society we call mental health disorders.
Mental health disorders aren't problems to be solved, they are the S.O.S of the wounds we need to care for.

Peeking through her window,
Seeing the sun shine, and
Flowers bloom, but never
Feeling any of it on her skin,
She is a thing of beauty,
Her movements graceful
As she paces her cage,
She is a thing of magic,
Hope lighting up her eyes,
In her heart she knows,
This too will be over
Some day when she will
Meet the sea, and she will
Laugh in carefree abandon
As the waves tickle her feet,
Unlike this day that she has to keep
Living over and over again,
Swinging like a pendulum
Between light and darkness,
This day that drives her to the
Brink of insanity over and over again
She brushes the glass walls,
Sand in the hourglass,
Her fingers spell out,
Freedom, freedom, freedom,
Over and over again,
And in her heart, she knows,
One day the walls will collapse.

Never tell a person that everything will be alright.
You never know what they are going through.
Just listen, don't say anything, and stay.
