The Journey So Far

When I am gone, you won’t have much to worry about

 

You won’t have much heart-stress to stress about

 

You won’t have much wishes of death for me

 

You won’t have much elimination plans of various versions

 

In fact, the world might be a better place for you when I am gone

 

 

 

When I am gone, you will see the pages I have written on history walls

 

When I am gone, you might finally decide to start your life’s journey

 

When I am gone, may be my sorrow from my life will not be included in your book

 

 

 

In death I may not wish to live another day like Bond, James Bond

 

In death I may not wish to lie to the reality of my world

 

In death all witches will wish I never expose their evils

 


Your friends, family and even you backstabbers have spoken

 

They told you to stay away from me

 

They told you I blinded all your sight to the real world

 

And they said you should stay away from me so you could see clearly 



Even when I was no longer with you, they expressed the devils wishes

 

Let me safe you from the misery I might have caused you and let you gain your freedom

 

 

 

Suicide stage was one hard race I have won,

 

Frankly I feel I have so much to give to the world and,

 

Sadly I have no rout to exit myself from your existence,

 

As I still stay awake on this planet.

Identify

Oldage is a state of mind
Old as the civiliazation of humanity
Old as the first lies told by lucifer
Old as sarliver
 
That is how old Identity is
 
I have lost my sense of belong
The sense of believing in words
The sense of having faith in love
The sense of knowing what is wrong, what is good and what is acceptable
Untill i became senseless for not having a sense to my path in life
 
I am a victim
A victim who once never had a choice
A victim who was once brutally robbed
A victim of identity thief
 
This is not just how I feel but this is how victims of abuse feel
