THE LOST DAYS




It took me a while to write this piece.
Cause I wanted to write from my heart.
I wanted the words of my depression to speak to you.
I cannot say that I have figured out the secrets of beating this inner demon,
That seems so wild and untamed.
But I can say that I can try to manage it.
Some might say that a depressed being is a lost cause.
Cause your emotions are heightened.
And the very skin that cloths you.
Seems like an unknown life source.
But with all that something beautiful can be made from that.
This topic is very high between teenagers. Because we are trying to find our identities and get consumed in our world of social destruction. 
So many young men and women of the future have taken their lives because they cannot handle this inner cage.
But it doesn't get easier as we get older.
Cause it comes as something different when we grow older.
One icon that has proven to us all that this demon can be tamed is the Late Nelson Mandela.
Who showed me that we cannot use our depressed mind to benefit our situation.
It can be the flame to our freedom, our success, our sanity.
To learn to love yourself even if the whole world hates you.
There's always someone who says something negative.
Or a friend who kills your joy.
But even the worst fires can be extinguish with the right tools.
Do not let this disease consume you.
Talk to someone, yourself break the bounds,
That cause you to hate the wonderful person you are.
But even the inner bitch has a mute button.
Just find yours.

Alpha Males


This breed of male mind is like that of a lion.
Its dominion is written on his face.
And heard in his words.
His heart bleeds but yet the pain is hidden.
I have seen a lot in his eyes.
As the hurt he feels inside.
Wait to explode.
Am surprise how he hides his emotions.
And tells the world he is fine.
His loneliness has built a wall around him.
And no one dares to cross.
His trust is like a thin line.
Because past betrayal still lingers in his mind.
Tried to figure out the very depth of his mind.
But yet I come out blank.
The complicated mind of this young man.
Is worth a while in thought.‎
