Take the pen.
Spill the ink.
Write your heart out.
A healthy reframe:
to be jealous
is acknowledging
longing within,
when we detach
from that ache,
we become bored, disengaged,
angry and spew out apathy.
Do you find this too? The struggle with jealousy and comparisons is real but this perspective floated into my mind like a coo breeze on a hot day - welcome relief.

Dear self,
In losing you

Days seem blurry
Nights seem scary

Heart grows weary
Eyes turn teary

I lost the merry
I lost the power to write my story
I shall watch them all fall.

My spire has no guardian.
My soul no judgement.

Glory is a peak to crumble.
A poison seed is furtive in neglected soil.

From scorched earth it emerges with the aroma of cunning veracity.

But no truth will grow.

They tell you, write it with emotion.
Write it like it’s a history you’ve seen -
Describe it in burning colors,
Making a tragedy of things unseen.

But then they criticize you, tell you
It’s too graphic - that there’s no way
That was your personal war.
They’d rather look away,
Than acknowledge that it was your everyday.
Just discovered,
I
HAD
A
Demon,
Attached to me.

It's Claws
We're so deep,
It's taken me
Many years To realise.

It was so clever,
Hidden so deep,
Inside my
Psyche

It's strength lay
In it's
Non existence
(To me)
But I caught
A fleeting glimpse,
Many situations
Over Many years,
Suddenly connected

And it was gone,
The holes
Where it's
Claws
Withdrew,
Will heal very quickly

What is your  purpose? To become happy?
What is your dream? Leave a legacy?
What is your goal? Live in glory?

Why?why?why?

Your glory? that will fade
legacy? Time will make them forget
Happiness, Well; matters no more that I'll bet

Why we forget ?

When the story ends
The very moment we all die
We feel empty, Nothing Matters no more
All of us become afraid, we regret; we all just cry

breathing together
unity in motion

sharing the same air
as friend or foe.
