The world and Me

still high on life, still hopeful towards it

It hurts when world imposes her way

It hurts when you drown in pain

It hurts when they ask for remedy

Still don't have guts to stop for a pity

It hurts when they talk more about my upbringing

More than my well-being

It hurts when they make me a sadist

Seems like I don't feel pain

It hurts when my family is in the ordeal

And pretend that I am the reason behind, not less

It hurts when my whole existence crumbled

Still, they don't know the truth behind

They hurt more than it supposed to hurt

They are the society

Scorching sunburn

The peel of the skin, the ache of the hurt

I should stop being bothered; still, I Don't know why?

The peace of mind,

The happiest person alive

They did work; weren't they even criticized?

Life is a hasty, nasty path or trail

People throw more pebbles than they do petals

I know life is not a path of roses

It's already hard to breathe now, Don't make it worse

Drowning in guilt, people are dying every day

Everywhere, there's a body

Who stopped the prey?

Can't you help them, help them to survive?

Can't you help people succumb back to life?

They die in their negative way, and so do we

Even if we can't hold our head

Let us bear some will

Will to fight back, live for ours

Live for those succumbed lives; we could cherish forever

In grey

The memories hazy

And eyes frizzy

Tell me when the sun sets down

Have we made it towards the Bay?
