Existence... the rot!
It's a funny little thing
One second you're here
The next... you're not
Where did life go?
Every moment filled with glee?
Some things were good
Some things were bad
The rest I forgot
I just did what I should
So a typical day?
Was your life fulfilled?
I worked all day
Slept all night
The rest of the time...
Mostly wasted away
The money you earned...
It must have given you joy?
I paid so I could exist
I paid so others could too
The rest might as well have been nought
Into blur, into mist
So you struggled through life so that you could contine to live?
That's so bland
That's so basic
A boring tale to give!
It's what we humans do in our blunder
Live our lives
Wait for death
Never risking the former
Due to fear of the latter
Yet here it is and I wonder...
Did any of it really matter?
I'm going to write some short stories, poetry and other creative writings here. I'll try to make it one a day. If you follow I'll try to follow back. Feel free to share anything you may like or find interesting.

Identity
Sorry
I didn't mean to do it
But I did
But it wasn't me
Not really
Because it wasn't the me I want to be
It wasn't you?
That's your excuse?
Don't twist the truth
It was you doing what you do
You'll never be who you want to be
I'm trying hard to change from me
I hate myself
Hate what I see
In the mirror, the man
He needs to die for a clean slate
Change is hard
Won't come easy
Look at yourself more positively
There's no such thing as full rebirth
Take what you have reshape and mould
Reality is the key
Don't hate yourself destructively
We all have qualities good and bad
Nobody is perfect
No need to feel sad
Keep the love you have
The things that bring joy to your day
Break off what is bad
Let it rot and decay
No amount of money
Determination
Will
Denial
Sacrifice
Will change you forever
You are who you are
Accept it
Its fact
Take the good with the bad
