What life is lead wondering how to lead your life
A dictatorship of conscience taking over every resemblance of thought
Living to learn while learning to live is how we spend our lives
With sometimes a brief thought of learning to love
When trust is broken for the first time we then spend time rethinking trust
A shallow pestilence fills the walls of consiousness during the period of emptiness
The true meaning comes to us right before we die so it is said, then whats the point of living?
Choose wisely the steps you take... deviate not far from the path or destruction and chaos will permeate inside the walls you have built
Suffocating
Yet we wander around this town endlessly, never knowing where we are going, or better yet where we will end up. Bitter thoughts of nameless figures ridicule us as we walk on the beaten path we have trodden so many times before. The sweet noise of accelorating cars are but a noise drowning out the music playing so loud on your headphones, a sort of faint distortion of the loud guitars and peircing drumming of your favorite band. Walking still, trying to find an intangable destination... still we walk.
We walk along this walked on trail as we hope to find our way, only to lose hope and return to the life you have led for the last 17 years. Fro
Just look at you:
Obvious conformity turns their heads while you sit there and scream obsenities at them.
Wearing your disguise that only sheilds your eyes from your apparent normality.
Smoking a cigarette, just to fit in with a crowd of "individuals."
Wearing a uniform that is just reeking of punk and decked in all of non-conformist's accessories.
Your endless plots with your friends to prove that you're different than "the others".
Always ranting about your government, without ever seeing that you are the hypocrite...
Maybe i'll never understand what being a punk or an individual is all about... but as of now, i'm just happy being
I find it funny that we as people can put are trust into an intangible way of being. Our religions rule our lives, our actions, our state of being. We live in constant fear of such an uncertain thing, and let our religions (not our spirituality) take hold of our day to day lives. Catholics, Prodestants, Unitarian... among other numerous sects of one organized thought, or scripture. Basing your life on a book is as meaningless as basing your life on a bugs bunny cartoon.
Then again half of the "religious" population doesn't even celebrate their religion, it's just a sunday activity just like any annoying daily chore. Here, get the hypocrasy i
In the Bhagavad-Gita it states, one who "renounces all desires and acts without craving, possessiveness, or individuality" will achieve inner peace. This means that in order to achieve "oneness" with the universe one must forgo all earthly pleasures and desires, only then can they truly be at peace with themselves. We are given the paradox that our bodies are known to end, but the embodied self is enduring, suggesting that giving up desire is how you achieve good karma. Lord Krishna, an incarnation of Vishnu, speaking of this reincarnation says, "As a man discards worn out clothes to put on new and different ones, so the embodied self discard
Love him for him instead of him for she, she for him, him for it, it for…
Life. No longer lived for love, set aside…
Lived for the sake of a lived life.
Live. No longer for self, set aside…
Lived for the sake of $.
Self, isn't bothered to be found, forgotten amidst the day to day routine.
Routine, music to the ears ? or a misstruck string ?
If contradiction is at my discretion through use of my "rights"
Break Away, Break Away, Break Away
Away from the routine
Away from your ego
Away from what you have become
Off to what you want to be… Free
Freedom ?!? Don't get me started
You're used to being chained, locked and once overed my

2 in the morning and a pack of cigarettes later I still wonder the same thing i've been thinking endlessly about since early this morning, but I can't figure out what it is i'm thinking.
Half and hour later still thinking about what it is i'm thinking of yet have only come to one conclusion, I need another pack of cigarettes.
I sit awake too tired to sleep and too lost in thought to think, zoning out on endless rants with no outcome.
Sitting here trying to type this poem still thinking about nothing and somehow finding a way to convey this nothing into somet
