Ink with all our thoughts compressed
One hand
Four marks
A dream
Words spoken from a mouth once pure
A desire
A hope
To be seen
Our Earth orbits a plasmic star
Yet we pray
We love
We bleed
We love with values unlike one another
We make those choices despite one another
We hold the hands of massive mistakes
In stability
and instability
We’re seen
Sometimes I am on a high
Other times on a low
I never know what personality i will show.
Some days I don't know what's happening to me
I don't feel myself but what could this feeling be ?
Iv searched for so long
It's really draining for me
Trying to find answers for this iratic side of me
I feel bat sh*t crazy
This effects me a lot
My days can be hazy
My nerves become shot.
But when I am good
I am high like the sky,
Life feels amazing,
I chat to everyone passing by
Next day I could wake
Feeling so gloom
It makes me feel like the elephant in the room.
So many sides of me
It can be tough to relate
Who am I?
What's happening?
Why am I in such a state
This isn't me nor who I want to be
I just want to be normal
Like I felt I used to be.
hasten feat —
the shortcut, worthwhile?
pay the price,
when you fall…
instead clear the land, plant seeds —
narrow way succeeds

1.Low trust uncertainty as
enduring is foolish.
2.Wealth resembles crowd for
a village show.
3.Wealth fluctuates if received
commit righteousness instantly.
4.Wise knows days are
life reducing saws.
5.Better commit goodness before
hiccup of death.
6.World possess,one was
Yesterday,today dead.
7.Fools unrealise life, think
waste above crore-times.
8.Soul,body relation as
flying-birds leaving egg-shell.
9. Death as sleeping, birth
as waking up.
10.For soul in body
seems unworthy place!

Inadequate provisions
Yet substantial waste!
