The [safe life] is the most dangerous one to live.  

Your invincibility is another way
To show your weakness
The cyber invitation you give
To share in your 'uniqueness'
Is denying the truth in your days-
Reality isn’t pressed through a sieve.

To be constantly engaged
In bright lights instead of
bright smiles
brings you closer to

n u m b  n e s s

    f  u  r  t   h    e     r

                  feel

Because how can
anyone
truly gauge
A n yt h  i ng  real
when all they know
is how to conceal?

it’ll take a while….

but your soul is worth the save.

How does one possibly start
the terrifying journey to,
>>once again<<<
hear their heart?
To be alive when
things feel blue
is to welcome the feelings you
so fiercely dart.

When your body allows
what your mind is fighting,
though pain is at high tide
inner {wrongs} you are righting.
Perhaps your world will
seem less of a mess,
If you trade in slighting
for direct address.
A sad tributary leads to
an ocean of happiness~

why am i so afraid to
[pause]
take the chance to put everything out in open space where people can catch it and roll it up {backspace<<<<
inside of their brains where it's malleable and ornate
demonstrate and configurate the dimension of how they feel about it
too big of a chance what reaction will surface when i don't have one to hold on to                                                          
    ­                              (freefall)

clamp onto something familiar
takes you out of Now and into ego
what answers do you truly have ?
they're in the books and pieces and projects and dreams and places that you've started all so strong but lost the steam to see any one through
what happened to that current inside of you
electric i thought
but dormant it appears
trading fruition for the breath of your fears

— The End —
