Status QuoI know it's been awhile since I stepped on the front porch to open up something for you.It's been years since I heard you say my name, while you sit at the end of the room.If you don't remember me, I would gladly go inside, have a nice little chat and catch up where we left off.When I enter, I hope I am welcome to cast in myself as another part of your cruel gestures of disbelief.The world is full of stigmatized meanings and groups where they say you belong to.It's a brief demonstration of its everyday advances and greatness as you differ from the rest.Whether it's true or not, differences can always outgrow similarities and how people behave and act upon reason.In order to go for something undeniably stupid when you join these certain people, a clash of extremities strike.Society has been characterizing us from the lowest level to the highest one you can ever go through.Such level means that there is nothing in between and similar to what we a
Society’s Collar BoneIt is a crucial distress call to see that we keep an eye on one specific thing.It does not have an end or some kind of splash that would pick you up if you are in need.It is not an emergency call but we listen to the words of stupidity.Eventually, we would get unhinged at the little times when the proof of our limits finally existsPerhaps we can belong in a "non compos mentis" atmosphere if we lowered the dumb level.In some days, we might bring justice to our thoughts if they are being treated as scattered lizards.In the usual habit, we only look at one quadrilateral in this spherical world of disturbance and peace.Unfortunately, we follow a swipe of instinct that drags our consciousness in a society of the likeness through our fingertips.It depends on how we put up in a situation. However, we spend time being hypnotized by countless screens.To make it worse, we let people come into the lives of our own and make their own outlook.The worst
Another open letterHey! How have you been lately?it's astonishing to go around and find you again.So, how was your day today?Anything new?Anything good or bad?Anything fascinating stuff that you've seen?Anything horrible that you don't ever want to see again?Anything you'd like to tell me?Yes?No?Nod if yes and lick your elbow if no (even if I can't see it)Probably you couldn't lick your elbow, so just fire it up. I'm the ears of this conversation.I'm not persuading you, but just tell me when you're ready to speak out.Before that, did you have a good sleep?I saw you. You were awake for hours.But why are you so quiet?I know it's none of my business, but you know I'm here. right?So I hope you're okay.Did you try that new restaurant downtown?I'll take you there tomorrow. The pancakes are wonderful. Actually everything in that menu is delicious.Maybe going there could lighten you up for a little.Come on, you need a breath of fresh ai
Gods & MonstersWhat a delightful treat! The Grim Reaper shall set foot on this road, neither anyone wants to be touched or stared upon his soul-wrenching glance.He comes up at the middle of the road and faces the weaklings who dared to challenge him in despair.But one poke and scrape left the blood gushing from their mouths and flesh rotted indefinitely.However, the sliding of his scythe grew into a louder noise that has woken up the sleeping beasts.Every step towards the end of his direction, screams have been heard by the most death defying tones.The Banshee arrives.Fear runs up to every inch of the townsfolk spines. Hoping nothing but just to stop the wailing spirit to speak upon their deaths.The Grim Reaper continues his journey. He swung and laughed at every minute of his experience.Flutters of wings are suddenly witnessed along the dark skies.Azrael comes by to pick up his deliveries.Everyone ran and some were crushed by the stampede th
Your “Faux Pas” is not your definitionWe have a lifestyle of deciding whether or not we can stand up or stand down.We dwell in specific magnifying glasses of authenticity and silence.We bring a pinch of hell and heaven in our own unique way and somehow try to get away from all the advantages.We do not intend to create an action that may impact more of another sense of blending in.There are voices in the back of your head screaming for freedom and wanting strength.Voices that breaks chains and destroys infrastructures of a meaningful substance.Voices that travel down your body to create such a movement to make everyone afraid of you.Voices that will tell you to drive a car, get away and hang yourself in the closet or some kind of place where no one can find you.Sometimes all of these things happen and ends up with a thought of it being a total waste of your own existence.A downward spiral twists around and takes you out of the corners in the delusional ph
SeekIt's been two months and still nothing but an utter and the silencing death of lonesome.Just the echoes of your breathing and the heat it comes with it.It rings to my ears and sends chills down my spine.But nothing beats a devastating turn of events if you are not here by my side.Even though your presence is gone, I can feel the atmosphere that was left by the distance.It brought days and weeks of weeping that evolved into a drastic cry for help.You found yourself in the place you didn't expect to be.However, it was how you rose from the ground that made you stay where you are.It's going to be almost 3 months. Still no word from you.I saw you passing by every once in a while.But I was looking forward to the point where we were supposed to say 'Hi' and exchange a hug if possible.Instead, you just walked. Walked away and drifted.I wanted to come after you.I wished to follow you.I dreadfully dreamed of touching your skin for even a bit.I t
HiddenIt is an exhausting night where the howling of the wolves can only be heard when you listen.Beyond that is the deep silence of a lady in black.But i must ask you first, Can you fill the spaces that were left untouched?Return that was borrowed, but you never had?Ask for something in return and answer for another question?Then, drift in a mental illusion and turnover for the world's bloodiest nightmare to come.She lurks in every corner, hides in every space and comes out if she's hungry for your flesh.Looks can be deceiving, but never look into her eyes. One glance can keep you paralyzed, but conscious.You'd be watching her devour your insides, painful to look at but no movement can be done once she has you.The easiest yet the most difficult death will be showcased, and you as its audience. The curtain will never close.After the outstandingly gore meal, she leaves your body. Remained unremembered and useless.She wipes the blood off of her face,
A letter to unmuteWe think of everyday as another moment to sigh deeply from your core.Or perhaps that most of the hours where we lie on top of a nail bed is just like slowly sinking ourselves with torture.It did go for a good trouble, but is it worth it?How is it supposed to go when you've gone crazy from overthinking?Hey it's you again!How have you been?What was wrong with you today?Got deeply affected by that person who told you you're nothing?I disagree so much on what happened to you. I couldn't imagine exactly what you're going through, but I know you're hurt.You stayed in your place and kept it calm behind the curtains.I heard that your "other side" got loose from its cage.You held that for years.You worked hard on keeping them together.Removing the insanity from the covered dignity.Find it in yourself to survive, but look for what you know is needed to be found.You know in yourself that it's hard.How would you go back to it again?Do you

Farewell with an Art De La PoésieWhen it comes to poetry, It is as easy as you might've thought of it was supposed to. Several inspirations or motivations may be what others would need to create tons of verses and drama.Some even create their own stories based on what they see and hear.To a few, the power of comfort food is needed to create those statements that you'd like to burst out of the bubble.For Instance, you are sitting on your chair, eating a jar of Nutella with no idea what to write.Take a look at the Jar, its depth, width, material, formation and the little pieces left inside of its tasty greatness.You can write about it's sense and wonder, add a few touches of irony, sarcasm, humor or a spectacular image.By then, you would realize that you're writing about Humanity's biggest mistake or the life of a survivor.If this style doesn't work, try finding an inspiration to soothe your questions and let go of the pain and pleasure.It can be an experience,
A letter for your colorsHey there!Have you been up all night again?Did you do anything remarkable today?I know what would cheer you up, Mashed Potatoes!We all undergo many circumstances, yet we tend to brush them off if we dislike the possible results.Time can tell if we are either ready or not to go through the needle hole and fill up the spaces when we're out.But we don't want to say that we're scared.If we do, the people around us would think less of who we really are behind these masks we show them.Were you able to see yourself in the mirror lately?Look at you. You're a mess.Have you ever showered?Have you even brushed your teeth?What's going on? Why did you let yourself go?All we need to do is a bit of a push to help you get through the day.How many times have you visited the doctor, lately?Have you been drinking the medicines he gave you?What's really going on?Look I know throwing rocks at a soft wall is not always an easy feeling.You
ZanYour eyes were the image of spectacularity. Your hair was as soft and silky as the Marshmallows under your pillow.Your smile carried the golden strings of a 50’s guitar.Your entirety reminded me of the soothing breeze the coldest of nights could ever give.The way we moved and swayed with the branches were once great memories of living.The way we scattered the ashes of a burnt up petal were once magnificent memories of laughter.The way we destroyed walls upon the impossible were once extravagant memories of perseverance.The way we struggled in the tug-of-war was once a reminder of the hardships we defeated.But now..The avenues and corners of yesterday were filled up with my selfless, yet moronic act.The detours of today were filled up with the breath of apologies and regret.The path of tomorrow was filled up with questions and answers that still caught the attention of yesterday and today.The direction to a better day is still d
Tampered lettersWe see what we could find, but not be able to find what we wanted to see.We lose the sight of what is lost, but end up being lost on our way to have what we sought.The icing isn't all that sweet when it loses its flavor. However it gains sourness when you make it wait for too long.All things could be the beginning of the end. If unlucky, it could be the end of the beginning.Whichever comes first, you know you have to do what you need to do.Doing what you must, isn't always going to turn out what you've wanted.Forcing someone out of the closet is not easy.They tend to hide or pretend they must fit in to be able to get accepted.For if they splash a different color in a monochromatic society, everyone would know.Chaos would enter their world and they may never find peace throughout the war.What if the world never discovered the word "differences"?,Would everything be the opposite?What if people never found the word "judgement"?
The unspoken thoughtIf only you can hear how many phrases and idioms went down your blood streams only to be known as nothing but a word, you'd be surprised.You might be able to see the pain and greatness every human being could've felt for centuries of silence.There are times where one thought is not enough to persuade the innermost screams as they burn the pieces of woods.And of course, adrift in the most psychotic and seducing way of giving up has appeared to destroy.A lady happened to walk by a path of half-slept wolves, still gnawing the sides of the bones they have eaten from the cabin.Expect her action led to a typical kind of a challenging yet happy ending when she finally got out of the woods.Unfortunately this is not a fairy tale for 6 year old kids.So the lady stepped on a branch, made a sound and got hauled by the wolves. She was eaten alive and the most gore-filled imagination is the only thing you need to unlock the door of knowing why.Certai
NothingHow long has it been since you looked at the devil's eyes, and said no?Curious on your way out, you find the eloquent force that pulls you up.But in this case, you figured out the flower is not always nice, sweet and innocent.Most of the time, it will wound you with the thorns and give you nothing else to help you heal.You must go down the path that fills you with tension to lead an exciting life.However, you choose to play it safe.You choose to celebrate in the audacious tones of self proclaimed thoughts.Blinding yourself from the truths you keep getting away from.You know they killed the extinct rhino, but you looked away and pretended it was not real.You know they stole the diamond and robbed the bank, but you walked out and ignored them.You know they abused the little kid, but you said it was "discipline".You know they insulted the stuttering waiter, but you chose to say it was none of your business.You know she was hurt, but you sid
A letter & a shoulderThere are specific situations that we could always endure and try to run away from.Yet we don't get to be in the time of the day where all is limitless.There is always an answer at the back of your head and sometimes under the bed.It can be anywhere. Hard to find but worth it to have.Hey there!I know things have been really rough.Situations can be too tough to handle but you have to be there for when it comes easy.So I guess you've been having a not-so-good day, right?I heard there was a bit of a problem that you got into.Somehow, why did you even have to act to it in a violent way?It may not go smoothly as what you expect but it would turn out great in the end.So what happened?Do you need a shoulder to lean on?Come on, even if you don't say it I know what you're thinking.I'm a part of you and I know everything you've been going through.Even the simplest pain can be the one that would impact you the most in your entir
That plastered grinWhen do you declare Happiness?When do you declare that smile plastered on your face to remain perfectly in that condition?When do you seek the movements of that passing thought to give you the initiative to stretch the sides of your lips?When do you seek the most magnificent moments that shall give you the ability to open that grin to show a smile?When do you take life for granted?Do you take it so easily, so that you can exchange it for every second of a blissful glee?Is it like a mist that passes by in front of you, dying to get noticed before it fades?You'd do everything to get it.You'd do everything to maintain it.You'd do everything to hold it in your hands.You'd do everything to keep it away from ever getting out of your sight.You'd keep it.Own it.No matter what.It's a disguise for the abominable fear.But it doesn't possess a heinous reason.It's for forgetting the vile memories and recreating life with an amicable one.It'
