Nutshell

My mind is never quiet but I never tell my true feelings, 
Cause truth is I'm scared of what my truth is
 I validate life through positive eyes. I hate no one. 
Won't tarnish my heart with such condemned 
Feelings. I love a select few and that's how I keep it.
 Faith shall lead my life; he's the one man I trust.
 All the pain, but no amount of pain can change my heart.
I speak in riddles, only the savvy can decipher, if they try too.. 
Ignorance is bliss, which is why my happiness falters. 
Take life so seriously, trying to figure out that illusion.
We breathe, we strive, and we die. Try to break the confusion between existing and living. There has to be a greater purpose for being, than just being. 
Everything is bigger than one person, then why is it a problem to smile not just when you need to? 
There’s this sadness so deep inside me that I don’t want to surface, it’s a feeling that would cripple me way before death would.
Could it be a phase, to lead me the way to myself that I yearn for? I feel god touch my soul with every word I engrave into the universe.
My form of meditation is the intellectual break throughs. Cause if no one else understands god and myself do.
