Human Hypocrisy

My favorite thing is when human beings say that humans are horrible. Something being determined as horrible must mean that there is some pre determined set definition of goodness. If these people could show me what description we would need to fit in order to be good that would be great. But alas no one can, not a single person. This is why totalitarianism exists, if you generally force everyone to follow a certain standard of living there is no living. Not only that but its impossible to make everyone feel and think the same. There isn't and will never be one sole way of living and doing things. Thats why when a human being says that humanity is bad it just makes me laugh because they are also a part of it. There is no separating yourself from humanity. We will only know what we know, without knowing how can we not know, knowing that we don't know is knowing something, or do we truly know nothing at all.

Weak Minded Awareness

Sides, perspectives, religion, skin color, culture, all of the above are things that individually we all have. No matter how strongly you feel about something no one will ever 100% understand what exactly you feel about said "thing". That is why as human beings we communicate. If we had found a way to connect our minds and see through the eyes of our fellow brother or sister words would be unnecessary, and we would see nothing then. Only misunderstanding and misconceptions make us human. We try and portray perfection and right and wrong through our culture but that is also just a part of perspective. And since human beings will only know what their own personal true feelings are 100% we will never be able to reach a new level in which we would have to redraw the meaning of perfection.

Weak mindedness is a massive curse and blessing humans have. It's a curse because if someone else's actions effects you negatively you will feel inclined to approach this subject and express your distaste, whilst on the other hand it's a blessing because without it we wouldn't be able to show compassion. For example (personA) becomes friends with (personB) and (personC). Then (personA) talks about how it feels about some type of "movement" happening, (personB) might totally get what (personA) is talking about due to the fact that they share similar feelings about it. But (personC) due to human's innate weak mindedness gets upset by (personA)'s words and retaliates with some snarky comment to insult (personA). (PersonB) now having shared some of it's feelings to (personA) and coming to an common consensus("allowing [personA]'s words to effect it"), gets defensive of (personA) and attacks (personC) verbally. 

The whole idea of my way of thinking is too try and subtly allow myself to take on a role in which i don't allow outward negative forces effect my life path.
The only true end to the mind is death.
Torture and suffering couldn't tear my mind from my body cause even at my last breath the only person taking that breath is me.

Endless Sarrow

A ray of light 
                                      of the golden red sun
                                   Breaks the cold bitter night
                                              I Repeat
                                      The unspoken words
                                   that were not meant to be
                             Drowning myself in infinite sadness 
                                  And melancholy the words
                                         Written on a line
                                     That you will be mine
                                 And intense will be our love 
                                        That rises above
                                         As a ray of light
                               Breaks through the bitter night

Broken and Tore

I really love you
                                  But you love someone else
                                        when i see you 
                                    I Cant close my eyes
                     I Just want you to say how much you care about me
                                 But you love someone else 
                      I just want to hear "i love you" out of your mouth
                                      I hear it in my mind
                                      Its just like a sound
                                      But its just a dream
                               Because you love someone else

Strength To Love

I wish i was as strong like i used to be
                                        Before hurt and pain weekend me
                                          Then this wouldn't hurt so much
                                            All i need is your gentle touch..
                                        You know who you are and what i mean
                                                  You know that you are 
                                                    Part of my dream

Never Believe

Never trust a smiling face
                          Because it is not what you think it is
                                      The face can smile
                                      But the soul can cry
                                So never trust a smiling face
                              Because it is not what you think 
                                                 You see
