so blinded by the popping colors
now blind to reality
a wish for truth can’t be granted
falsehood is the currency
and on we go, ignorance multiplied
averting truth left and right
all i care that my ego is satisfied
so what if i run away from a fight

smile – why?
never has there been a reason to smile
just widening parting lips is good too
my mind expects me to look happy
what broken soul? a fake laugh will do
empty bottles
i feel guilt, breaking
my own promises
and yet my feet drag me
to unwanted destination
everyday, every night
promises made anew
and lies to fight
that gut feeling inside
yet my feet go on
towards an untoward
for i lack a mirror
to reflect upon my deeds
beholden
i am being watched
through the annals of time
befitting, it seems
that i’m stuck in the present
for past has already
tarnished itself through me
and the future appears just
to tease before disappearing
i am beholden to time
enough to be imprisoned forever
and yet free to feel
my failures over and over
why, then?
we laugh we cry
we heave we sigh
when kids
carefree
a switch and
grown up litte shits
going precariously through
the motions of life
reality is much harsh
than our worst nightmares
for nightmares are courteous
enough to let you escape
but life, fucked up life
grabs you by the throat
flings you around until
handing over to sweet
death
face life
some battles are mine
some squabbles are mine
i alone will face them
without intervention divine
quatrain # 9
and slowly, life began to unravel
and slowly, the path became clear
a journey on road full of gravel
to be completed with will, sheer
identity
an identity lost to time
an upheaval caused
and all that’s left now
is a lost soul
new and old
hurdles some, some cleared
and new issues suddenly seared
man, this life – never ending huh
throwing curveballs, clear them bruh
to wrap it out short and sweet
life’s fun at times, at times shit
