One Day

One day I will actually create art again. Its been a painful uphill battle to start again.

Binded to Bedlam

Too many word, too fast to write down

And the greatest bit of all is that they make no sound

Though you may see me quiet and calm

Internally, cognition is perpetually so loud it is profound

Some noise is foolish, like a child learning speech

Random patterns in unorganized sequences to which they peak

And as my physical being, I may appear small and meek 

But if you could hear the noise inside, it would be clear that I am not weak

I break barriers with words, provoking mindfulness to all

As my heart desires truth, my mind unrelentingly answers each call

Through pain, through evil I do fight, but the one thing I can't shake:

I must be ever cautious as I climb to my transcendence

There remains an equal and opposite potential that I may fall

What you may call "Soul Searching"

Transcendental Revival is Essential to my Survival

In the endless sea of seas
Across the path of manipulative thieves
And false profits - preachers do seize
The honest mans' only payment for deeds
There does exist a potential to perceive
The chaotic truth and the peace in need

In nothing more than the clothes on your back
The fire in your eyes, motivation irrelevant but intact
Transcend the enemy's means of soulless life hacks
In nothing more than powerful literate attacks
I follow independently in a familiar track

A similar fashion I seek to revive - which I once wore so well
That tier of excellence you've achieved and from I once fell

Chaos to Peace: I am Human.

Like perfection, the concept of complete happiness no longer feels practical or even relevant. I no longer possess the energy to waste a single moment of my time mulling over unrealistic notions that leave me feeling... less than human. 

But I am human. Sometimes that frustrates me just the same. I will make mistakes, I will have failures, and I will always be changing - developing, evolving.

All of the "in between" I've wasted so many days fighting to be at peace with happens to be the very conflict that creates chaos, the opposite of that which I attempt to accomplish within myself. 

So happiness - I'm no longer concerned with. Above all desires I have: knowledge, intellect, self awareness, and self sustainability - peace within myself has taken top priority. 

The moment I gave up on the idea of  "happiness", and began to find peace was the moment my entire perspective changed. And the moment I change, the world around me suddenly made more sense, and once again I feel human.

I am human.

And so are all of you.
