Adventure

-

People swarm your environment but yet, it does not feel like they are alive. It feels like the very essence of humanity left this world, and we remain as robots engulfed into a war for the holy, the almighty, wealth.

But once in a lifetime someone comes, and it seems like there is hope after all.

At first, you have been numbed to the passing of people, and you look at this person in disdain, wondering if you’ll ever be able to trust again. And yet, they seem to integrate themselves into your life with ease, and you slowly learn to accept it all.

A friendship is thus born, and the melancholy drowns into the newfound happiness. You learn the definition of a new word, friend, a word that essentially loss its meaning into your contemporary world dictionary. You learn to ascribe a new value to it and start a new chapter of your life with this changed outlook on what it is to live.

Over the span of some months, it feels like you’ve had years of adventure together. Life is all bright and happy, nothing could go wrong. Even if new distances come to create some barriers, it was all easily surmountable, it was only a small hurdle in your path.

But life is not meant to be enjoyed I guess, do not take my words for it dear readers, every turns of life is a signpost asking you to stop having fun and to just fit in the cogs of society, be a production machine and leave out all the rest.

So it happened, another star is extinguished, and people continue going on their way. You are struck, but you are forced to continue your journey, paying respect in memory only, which will soon fade into nothingness like everything else.

Soon you will fit in, you will lose it all, but you will not feel the pain

neither the happiness

lull yourself to it

its bliss.

 

To a brother gone too soon, we miss you. RIP.

Friends

Ever felt lonely in a crowded room? It is normal to be so, you are after all one in billions of human living on this Earth yet you are unique. So you surround yourself with people with the label ‘friends’ to have a semblance of happiness. But some are fake Some are fucked up Some are inexistent But yet , some are close to the heart. They cannot always be present for you, because just like you are struggling to take a breath each waking hour, did you stop to ask them if they are breathing fine? Selfish aren’t we? At your lowest point, look back at who gave you a shoulder to cry on, or simply a pat on the back to for you to take another step. I do not wish to dictate to you how to live your life, I just want to drag your focus to the point above. Think about it, and then consider how you should approach life. Thank you to the ones who I consider friends and family.

Phobia

 He was plagued by innocence in his daily life. Fun, friends and school, that is all he knew. Life was just a carousel of pleasures, the island offered more to him that he could enjoy. Mortality was just a faraway speck of dust in his mind, for again, he was as naive as children were. Life went on, he constructed a facade for himself, an unconscious shield to the harshness of this world which we call home. He had a guide in life, one that did not ever let go of his frail hands. The almighty shone light on his path, and he pursued this light with fervour, always feeling like he owe these invisible powers something for the positive turns of his life. Yet the embers of his life quickly died out, realisation hit him, life showed its real nasty colors.  His guide and model figure ascended the heavens, he was left alone trodding in the darkness. Everything was sudden, his dreams plummeted faster than everything else.  He woke up to a happy morning, and came home to find t...

The Chemist

-
  We all had dreams when growing up, some dreamt of becoming pilots, other astronauts. The rollercoaster of life caused some of us to become chemists, whether by choice or not. Chained to their laboratory, experimenting, and forfeiting sobriety. They play the chemist with dull knives till they are on the floor hitting the ceiling and falling off the cliff, tiptoeing in the void, leaving behind a broken Lego house. Staring from the deepest of the deep end up to the world that others live in, searching for the sun but they meet only with unnatural lights that burn their skins to their bone, sharing their ‘sins’ for the people above to point at. They chained themselves consuming their chemistry, till it’s the latter that is consuming them and dictating their moves. We fight off oppression, looking for independence and freedom but we put to the side those that are oppressed by their alter ego, addiction. Should we not extend a hand to help? The society we live in taught us to t...
