Sometimes to want is the same as to need.
The line is fine between necessity and greed.
Old chichés taught you ignorance is bliss but you kept learning and found out it’s ignorance you miss; you wanted this.

Sometimes a rope is the same as a noose.
We never care to panic as long as it stays loose.
We fight ourselves only to go down on the first round.
Brainwashing isn’t as clean as it sounds.

And so we hope, pray, wish, believe there’s more. We’re taught well how to ignore:
Logic, cognition, truth. Embracing our broken..

Sometimes to breath is the same as to live.
We beg and steal and borrow but refuse to give.
We have it all but require an encore.
Shame happiness isn’t sold at the store.

And so we hope, pray, wish, believe there’s more. We’re taught well how to ignore:
Logic, cognition, truth. Embracing our broken youth.

Broken Youth

Hello old friend 
We meet again
I bet like me you found it tiring to pretend
So on we go
Letting pain grow
And walking down the only path we’ll ever know
Naturally eventual, you convinced me to return
Culturally perpetual,
you enjoy watching me burn,
Y’built me my very own furn-
nace I guess I’ll never learn
You wait for me at every turn
You put my soul inside a cast
A future stifled by my past

A Flower’s beauty is realized in dirt
A person’s joy is contrasted hurt
You‘ll never succeed in your today
Without failing your yesterday
A sunny day will never be the norm
If we don’t survive the perfect storm
Your stars will never twinkle, fuse or shine
Without a sky as empty as mine

Iwnas
