What’s My Identity Because I Forget Every Day
i dont exist, exist.
upside down my sense of reality has gone
brilliant because insanity is shiny
and ofcourse
i continue staring into my eyes
for hours in mirrors.
& as my mind shifts towards disappearing
i continue swallowing shrooms
weekly to watch the walls become my body
the ceiling become fragile
when I’m sober
when I’m my daily peaceful
i still recognize I’m hallucinating.
that’s sacred.
i did all we’re scared of
truly what terrified me beyond measure
i surrendered to the irrelevance of human
existence.
they want me to sew my lips
because I still sound depressing
as if we’re all useless & thats the hidden truth
but I continue sitting in meditation while
my thoughts slice each other up
& I find the universe offers me peace
to
lose separation between myself & everyone
between myself & the houses & cars
& grass
& objects
to be one
so I’ll keep dying
death is the worst thing we imagine
oh fuck, to not exist anymore.
to leave it behind, every moment we stressed
on making life into perfection
just for there to be an end to us?
eventually
i grasped the obvious knowledge
to stop chasing oblivion
& befriend it.
no one will come to that silly thing we call
a funeral
there’s no one to come
there’s never been anyone here
but
a clash of dimensions creating
structure
buildings, cities, physical objects
forming memories
building identities
& sketching the illusion
these are all totally different things.
About the Creator
Emily Serena
truly, my dharma (life purpose) is to write. although death is an interesting means of a beggining to me rather than an end, I still choose to spend my moments as Emily, in this physical dimension, in a revolution of poetry & silent speech
