I keep hearing the question, 
“would you speak to a friend like that?” 
No, I would not. 

But

friend? What friend? Were we supposed 
to be friends? I would never befriend 
someone like this. Who suffocates me. 

Who’s so toxic I’ve caught ***** in my 
throat, eroding my will to breathe. Who 
wields a heavy fist and punishes with 
violence. Who lights silences with flames. 

No, you are not my friend.

If my life were a number
line—for example—

My life starts: 0
I laugh for the first time: +2
I yell at my mom: -3
I win in school: +10
I lose a job: -11

Am I really the sum of these
parts
the absent space of
my negative numbers
in opposition to the positives

Or

Am I more of an absolute value kind of girl?

We can't ignore the fact that,
Our planet is a hellish place right now!

Little pieces of ego
Exploiting an alive blue marble,
A wet blue piece of dust
In massive field of space.

Some organic and spiritual beings
Naming themselves
Human being all human,
Behaving as a controlled chaos.

Being a machine that
Takes all the riches of the planet.
Than they give all these to a
Powerful little secretive elite,
Demanding more and more
Power and all the riches in
Striving lust of greed!

This is the sake for destroying,hurting
The beautiful nature, ecosystem;
As well as having terrible lives.

What about you?
I can't talk specificly about you,
But generaly your bodies are
Dying for passions of ego!

Because of
Hard conditions of life,
Prison of limitations,
Carrying a heavy burden of
Memories, responsibilities...
Negative beliefs, starvation to praise...

I don't know why, but somehow
You feel bad.
I don't know how, but
You feel bad.

Unless, some negative think
In some negative part of your life.

You don't know why we feel that,
How to cope with that.
Because it is never been thought to you
By your school, media, family.

You're striving so.
Striving to some unknown point.
Beyond of the material, your culture.

You don't know what to do,
So you strive continuously.
If not consciously, subconsciously.
Then fire comes in and
You become the hellish torcher of pain!

An angry tiger colored fire!
In fiery pain!
Striving and burning!
In the blaze we call humanity of today.

It is the hell inside of us!
Making the body smoke and ash.
Sickness, illness, non health, fatigue
Making the body rusty and bulky
That all caused by firing negativity!

You may call it fear, pain, boredom...
Deppression, anger, distress...
Whatever you call in any form,
It is the you being the firing lust.
It is the you being the part of the hell.

It is the you being the blaze that is
Society made of 60 trillion cells!

Sometimes in life,
you just,
have to look at the bright side.
It feels like,
everybody is just so negative.
There is so much hatred,
and pain in this world.
If you think about it though,
we could make it so much better.
So, just stick with the right friends,
never lose hope,
and look at the bright side.
