Some peace

Is it bad to find peace in melancholy?
A touch of nihilism, 
That broken back, those weak knees,
Some closeted masochism,
Culminating in cheap wine,
The kind that leaves you heady
Most nights, 
I stay up breathing
Eyes wide open
Dreaming,
Taking pleasure in my pain.
Is it bad… to find peace
In myself?

Dream

Fairy tales were nothing, Nothing compared to that dream...  Though beautiful, It was never meant to be,  All a lie, All a deceit... I found myself sitting under the shadow like sky,  Deep and beautiful like the sea, I looked around and saw I had everything I'd hoped for, Everything I wanted was there with me.

Some things are so connected to us but still somehow so out of bounds and unexplainable. Some things that we can’t have control over. But is it really so hard to understand others? We can talk. Isn’t this fact supposed to make us superior to other species? Then why is it so that we are the most complicated beings in this world? Animals have tough lives, but their lives are still simpler and less complicated somehow… Is it because everything good or better has worse consequences to it? Like if we talk about relationships, then mostly it’s been so that the one

Missing Pieces Shouldn't Matter

It's all in your hands,  right from the start From the moment you were born, To your very last  Stop and look up, once in a while Admire the little things that light up your life  It's these moments in between,  That matter in the end Forget what's lost, forget what never was Forget the missing piece, you've been searching for From the moment you were born To your very last From your very first cry,  To when you close your eyes one final time, The littlest things, that happen between The joy you give, the hell you receive Is the life you'll live, the life that means everything
