The ABCs of Surviving The End Of The World
Always remember to pack the essentials,
Bat, Bottle, Bag, Boots,
Cut down anyone who tries to get in the way,
Don't look them in the eye, it only makes it harder,
Enemy, everyone is the enemy, yes, even them,
Find what you can, anything, you'll need it later,
Get up, you don't have time to rest, not yet,
How have you survived

surviving a hot day
first my skin melted
then my muscles and bones
as I sat in the hot sun
writing these poems
I should have moved sooner
this thought wiped my smile
my bodily suit was a goner
on the ground in a pile

Atmospheric Elocutions For Surviving Armageddon
Atmospheric Elocutions For Surviving Armageddon
Elocution lessons for the morality police
Persecution of those not callously elite
Convolution of the elongation of the technique
Revolution from the poor, downtrodden and bleak
Ageless reckonings that are born from conscious defiance
The rage less beckoning of a protest in non-violence
The senseless converting to a reflective space of

Surviving this thing called life
Surviving This Thing Called Life
Anxiety coils in my chest,
A tightness I can’t name,
Whispers of doubt,
Cold fingers tracing my every breath.
Fear crouches at my doorstep,
A shadow that never leaves
It waits, it listens,
It tells me I am not enough.
Worries like a river,
Constant, unyielding,
Carrying me to shores
I never meant to reach.
I try to trust the world,
But the echoes

Surviving the Storm
Thrust within,
I could not focus.
Lights sizzled,
blistering
and slashing the jagged sky
with vile lightening.
Your visage
materialized
from nowhere,
beckoning,
guiding my path with sure wake
safely to the shore.
You became
my anchored buoy.
Just for you
I inhale.
My heart will always seek berth
in your steadfast love.

Surviving or living
Surviving comes with ease
Even dying is also serene
Living, what a real scrutiny
Living when your knees are on the ground
Or when your head owns a crown
Or when you are seeing the same dawn
Living when your day unfolds a distinct tale, perhaps you may hate
When friends are few and everything seems blue
Living when

The cost of Surviving war
The passed a place with deep regret
Don’t want to remember, cannot forget
There’s scars and wounds that will not heal
For I had to main I had to kill
I had to follow the orders gave
And send my foes to meet their grave
The nights are hard for the faces live
Inside my head

still surviving - courageously alive
still surviving, courageously alive
Thrive to survive on
Wait till the dusk turns to dawn
Arriving undone...
We welcome the sun
We welcome the son as well
Yes, Godly time tells...
Wait till the day's done
Negative vibes..almost gone
Still worried a ton
Hoping for bright days always
Gloomy, gray fog fades
No doubt -- faith these days!
I hold on to hope
I want cheer instead of

surviving a shipwreck
initially I saw no humanoid qualities in the beast
he was a throwback, not orangutan, but not man either
his eyes were frighteningly dark with glowing suns in the center
how could I communicate with this being?
I heard a thought in my head that I knew was not mine
okay, he can implant thoughts, so is he reading mine?
I

surviving you
evil lurks in you like the shadows of an unwanted soul
you smell of spilled blood and rotting milk
you take what you can and take what you cant
the world doesn't bow down to you
unless you kiss its feet first.
you are unkind, unforgiving, and unfaithful
yet you cry tears of a make believe river
you fill your life with

Surviving suicide
In the depths of despair, a journey begins,
Surviving suicide, a battle we must win.
In darkness we stumbled, lost and alone,
Seeking forgiveness, compassion to be shown.
Through the rubble of pain, we rise anew,
Finding strength within, to start life anew.
The path of healing, long and steep,
But love's embrace, a potion to keep.
Forgiveness blooms, like a gentle flower,
Cleansing

Surviving co-dependence
I’m done with co-dependence or so I say
I’ve burnt so many effigies for others
I’m the giver in my codependency
The taker burns all my oxygen
She used to grant just a puff to breathe
Her flame used to light up this scarecrow
Marvel at how a selfless breath ignites
Like burning man sweating gasoline
This burning man has to stop
