What Lies Above

   Posted by: Jk

She wakes up in the morning
with a shower to wash off the sleep
She has a bagle and a coffee
or maybe some tea

The Unpoled Flag

   Posted by: Jk Tags: , ,

From the day we were born it was wrong or right
It was always black and white, gray was not in sight
The older we got, the more gray came into play
and it was left for us to decide, which color to portray Read the rest of this entry »

Across the Skies

   Posted by: Jk Tags:

The sky darkens when you’re not here
as a cloud in the shape of love is drawn
With the words I so fail to speak
and the letters that litter the sky of dawn

Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.     Read the rest of this entry »

Sweet November

   Posted by: Jk Tags: ,

Sweet November you’ve got me remembering,
all the good times and bad times this year had brought
And all the memories we had so ferociously sought,

Cool to be Blue

   Posted by: Jk Tags: , ,

Lately, I’ve been running into a lot of young people who seem to think that it’s somehow cool to act depressed and mentally ill, like it sets them apart from others and make them more interesting. Calling themselves freaks, crazies, and others. Now I’m not sure whether it’s the movies they watch, music they listen to, or their society at large that makes them think this way, but there’s one thing I know for sure, that mentally ill patients do not go about boasting their condition, on the contrary, they hide it and seek medical help.

Fate
