mind freedom school suffocation soul
Light,
I feel it in my surroundings with the last gasp of sight,
The last visionary glance before I’m pulled into night,
I squeeze my eyelids together so tight -
That black runs from them as I turn my clock right,
Lost,
Every atom of time is gone - tossed,
Every line I ever drew for myself was crossed,
How far would I go for my broken soul, and at what cost?
My intuition now glazed and glossed,
Reluctant of fear as I pull my thoughts near,
I’d shout out with doubt if you left me sitting here,
In my own pool of emotion covered with black ice so sheer,
Transparent enough like a baby’s shed tear,
You see,
I could never live with the fact that I can’t live with facts,
I like to not talk - but act,
Still amused with the people that can’t accept that,
Take your torn insight and lock it up in a vat,
Tell me with all that intelligence deep down you shove,
What’s stronger - Love of Power or Power of Love?
It’s scares me to think of the response,
Considering that to me, both have a powerfully frightening ambiance,
I can detect someone’s words through body language,
But I can still hear you better when you cry out in anguish,
But don’t you understand, nobody wants to hear cries,
Nobody wants to watch as a friends soul burns away and dies,
I wanna see your eyes light up like fireflies,
Mesmerized by the disguise,
Tricks of light that hypnotize,
Wings spread out in span of flight,
Put your fist up for humanity rights,
Love will let you fly - like childhood kites,
It feels like these thoughts are repeated without impact,
Like it’s an audience my brain does lack,
If I could pour my soul to you - I swear I would,
But I can’t put some things into words like I wish I could,
I think today our species needs to learn to listen,
So we can all feel each other and know what we’ve been missing…
Like a piece in a puzzle - A simile way overused,
Our aspect on eachother is too scraped and bruised,
Every morning I dread the abrupt noise that bounces across my walls,
Creating a length of sound like a waterfall,
I pour myself on to the ground feeling so small,
With the knowledge that another day awaits from someone so tall,
Someone so “powerful” - Note the quotation marks,
It’s cause I believe being schooled is a journey we shouldn’t have to embark,
Seems like when I’m awake the world is still and dark,
And I dread the brainwashing day filled with comparisons and marks,
Get me out of here,
I want to just be,
Build me moonstone wings so I can be free,
Every cell of the universe my eyes crave to see,
There is so much more than writing down verses,
So much more than international curses,
Look beyond what’s right in front of you,
Look away from all the shit that you went through,
Figure out something YOU want to do,
Let.
Yourself.
Go.
