Thoughts in Fragmented Mind

You were moving between places with sadness lingering on. I ask myself – “what is happening?” while having a wishful thinking about it. The darkness never leaves or fades away; instead, it surrounds me with negativity and anger. It makes you wonder whether you are worth the effort to keep going and making a quick buck here and there with your inability to get through the month without feeling guilty about the social consequences of your failures in the eyes of “society” itself or the norms that govern the way of life. As for second chances, “ ha right – (sarcastic thought)” there’s no such thing as second chances or opportunities to those who need them most “a tale old as time.”. “(Funny how people fake smile at you with the thought of others are ignorants to think it’s a genuine connection between one another)”. Anyway, back to the chances, it amazes me how judgmental we are against each other and towards ourselves and everything in between being targeted by past mistakes, and we can’t see past through. It brings tears of rage and frustration to my eyes how we are so cynical and small-minded to think “we are better than other fellows”. Is there a superior power that can flick fingers and “(voilà)” sort us out, or is it a bunch of enigmatic creatures we created in our minds? Furthermore, “why” do we keep lying and misleading everyone and make these actions unaccountable? “Why” do we transmit information to outsiders to keep them happy and to follow “The Law?” but we understand it’s not true, and what they do is so different from what they say.

In the silent voices of my heart, I walk alone, where shadows weep and dreams lay shattered, like remnants of a storm long past.
