Beautiful things come out of horrible situations. I know for a fact. Out of sadness you get a new found wisdom on how the world can look with a haze of gray clouds, how people can be senseless, how you can see the whole universe in a whole new way. And that may be hard to handle, hard to cope, hard to accept, but it is so damn beautiful if you really take the chance to realize. Out of anger, you can feel your heart beat race, with every beat it is shaking your whole being and not only the heavy steps you take. It is when you, your whole self and some power is telling you that you are alive. And that is amazing in every angle. Out of anything there is something in there that makes it incredible. Something that makes it shine. Whatever you feel is potent and it is such a blessing to be able to feel what you feel. You just have to think about it.


My eyes sting, my lungs constrict, body ridgid.
Everything equals pain.
Once there were fairy tales and dreams of simple happiness.
Now, we have only an inescapable war with Ourselves and nightmares that are just old Memories.
My head and body wish for implosion of a sort; something all comsuming and destructive.
Where can I find the relief I seek?
