Everyday I go to work
Everyday I get to home
Everyday I go to sleep

My life going to end without ever living it
My days going faster and faster
Social battery zero
Social life none
Eetu Manninen Jan 16
Everyone has masks in this life we live
I call them Layers of emotions that hide the feelings we try to keep away
Layers of steel to protect us from others
And from ourselfs
we want to forget the days that caused us the pain and suffering
As we put our shields up to keep others away
Our hearts broken and afraid
Our Mind asking if I go away
will the pain follow or move to new place

All this pain
I feel it up in my veins
It's flows faster than I can run away
I take corner and it's in my way
I can only hope the streets never end
Afraid of a dead end
Seeing the life I never lived to end
I hope everyone make it through even this one day
I don't know how you're laughing and I'm crying
our father is dying

I don't how you do it
Laugh your pain away

I can't stand it
your so positive in your mind

I can't sleep at nights
I can't do anything to help
I can only think the worst

I need you father more than ever
My tears flowing my heart breaking
Your heart failing

Not yet please not yet
I'm crying and you're dying
Please not yet please not yet
My heart breaking as my tears are racing
Writing this poem and Remembering That you've always been in my life
Always been there for me

Seeing the suffering of your illness
Filling me with thoughts of your death
Not certain of the future fearing the worst

Only If I could support you
Only if I could be brave
Only beeing afraid

I try to understand what I'm feeling

While everything else moves freely

I am a prisoner of my mind

Without a key I'm blind
to the answers I must find
A short one

I like to think everyone is different in their own way

Everyone's thoughts are unique like a fingerprint

Someone's mind wandering in their own wonderland
Admiring how the springs leaves float in the air
Seeing the vivid colours of those leaves in their mind
The calmness it's brings to them

But on the other hand someone's thoughts dark as the winter night
Sees only the darkness surround them the sadness the pain the suffering
Eating them from the inside
Leaving an empty feeling without light


Everyone's view of the world so different of each other

Some see joy and laughter around them
Seeing the sunrise and enjoying life to the fullest
Feeling the suns warmth on a sunny day


Someone's view might be like the world's on fire burning everything they ever loved
seeing their lives slipping away
While watching raindrops sliding down the window reminding of the tears that has been shed
hopelessly trying to keep it together


Regardless of people's differences we shouldn't judge people for how they see the world

We should try to understand them and their situation in life and not to compare ourself to others

Someone's feelings aren't their faults
Those are what makes as humans
What makes us unique
What makes us loveable

It's hard trying to understand Someone's situation
when you haven't been in their shoes

It's hard trying to share what's going on inside you
when you don't quite understand it yourself.

It's hard to live when it's feels like you are all alone

It's hard to support
when you don't know what the other needs

It's hard to try to heal someone
when you're the one who needs healing the most
