Nothing really matters

I had an epiphany today. As I was on my way to my driving trial I realised - nothing really matters. That exam you were worried about, the trip you were planning for months, that person you wanted to like you, that promotion that you thought you needed. Nothing truly matters if you think about it. If you really put life into perspective, the 'goals' we kill ourselves for are not set in stone. In fact, they're far from it. The 'goals' we seek so desperately, are the standards other people set for us. Man-made milestones in a world that is anything but man-made. We get so consumed by these 'milestones' we actually start believing we have complete control over the circumstances within our lives. I mean how arrogant and short-sighted is that frame of mind? Maybe, if we focused on today and did the best we could, we'd have a lot less heart-ache, a lot less stress, a lot less disappointment. Today, I went into my trial and with no attachments.

Dear Wave

On this empty night, my soul yearns for your skin. All doubts and insecurities disintegrate when we hold each other in filling silence. It's like our hearts speak to each other without having to say anything all. I worry I burden you with my vocality when I miss you. I cannot bear the thought of pushing you away. I want, I need you to be close to me. Impractical as that sounds it is what I desire. No amount of helpful advice will fill my heart against you. To me, you are God's blessing. I trust the goodness you try to conceal. Sometimes I feel like loving you might just be a suicide mission. I might never know until I am dead. And darling that is the beauty of it all, the best dreams I have, are ones where I am dying. That's a mad world lyric. It's not what it is, literally. Take it as you see fit. You are my ultimate obstinacy.
When I saw you for the first time, and when I say for the first time, I mean the first time I 'SAW' you - I remember thinking to myself how goddamn sexy you looked when you were seriously focused, made me think Yup, this boy, I could marry this boy. I felt so sure when the thought crossed my mind. It was so definite and its weird because if you know me, I'm as indecisive as they come... You. you. you. you calm me like the ocean does.
Corny motherfucking shit You You You You can you extract the narcism from your skin or is it here to stay like the goals you never seem to reach What do you want? Do you want money? fame? a big house? a great body? someone who loves you? Or do you need people (plural) to love you? What drives you crazy alive is it the pain or the expectation attached to your name do you even want what you already have, anymore? strip away your clout for what reason good enough is this attitude for? You are but one in 6 billion an atom mentally astray Peace, you need peace you need to strip yourself completely who are you?
If anyone asked me what my favourite place in the world would be I'd say : "Amongst the waves". I think its the feeling of being completely submerged in the sea brings inner peace. With nothing but water as far as the eye can wander I am left with the temporary feeling of certainty. I am fascinated by all versions of the sea. Oh sea, you are the reflection of my Lord's greatness. Nothing man-made can come close to that which He has created... My favourite place. My heart longs for the sea and all the emotions it awakens within me.

Dreams

Little girl remember the many dreams dreamt for you, Remember the tears wept, the pain bore, for the life you have now.  Little girl remember to conceal your pain,   and paint a smile across your face,  because little girl nothing can be not-okay when everything  was arranged for you.  Little girl smile and be chirpier, when you answer the phone don't let your anxiety bubble through the cord,  because little girl depression is a mental illness,  and no child of mine will be called insane.  Little girl remember, remember, the dreams dreamt for you.

Chase

When in pristine plastic boxes the child craves the toy for it is new and undiscovered When she is expensive the man craves the woman for she is new and undiscovered When bought and opened the child plays and is satisfied -until he wears out and the toy is now old and known When she succumbs to sweet gestures the man plays and is satisfied until he wears out of the face he once ravished of the body he once craved of the heart he once wanted to conquer she is now known and unwanted.
