who is the real you?
do we only see what we want to see?

airplanes, regional trains, blablacar,
the excitement of yet another adventure,
a journey filled with strange characters and chance encounters.
the life revolving around new corners and new zones.

and now the new dawn is awaiting.
how do i put all that i've collected into an architectural masterpiece?
these stones and pebbles, i gathered.
these priceless moments i indulged in with all of you.
insanity is twinkling like stars laced above us,
sparkling and dousing us with stardust.

what are my convictions?
have i lost the plot somewhere along the line?
embrace the idiosyncrasies.
because there's a silver lining to every single thing that ever happens to you.
what are friends for? what is friendship?
friendship is something that most of us take for granted.
spend quality time with those you love and care about.
goodbyes are hard, goodbyes will be hard.
but always remember that the time spent together is already a blessing.
very much a blessing indeed.

over the past two years, it appears that every single event in my life was decided for me to carry out.

did i have an active say in anything? what happened to my goals and dreams?
expansion. getting out of one's comfort zone.
is there a limit before the heart races to the edge,
and the mind spins out of control?
too many souls, too many vibrations.
how could we contain them?

i suppose when you realise that you have this immense freedom to do whatever it is that you like,
you get a little unnerved and jittery.
so many possibilities.
ENFP: going out, going with the flow, feeling these energies and seeing the boundless boundaries.
i follow my heart.
i have the privilege to pursue these strings.
different worlds, different mentalities.
learn while you're at it, adapt while you're still here.

intoxicated nights, how come we are always stuck in a drunken stupor to express?
i have so many questions, so many doubts.
yet my heart knows, what i already know,
it is all just an illusion, a fantasy.
these wild beasts tempt us, they know how.
we leap forward, froggily and doggedly following the trail of scent.
leading us to an unexplored forest.
the jungle encourages, these streams cool our feet.
when we're back from the east,
garlic leaves an aftertaste.

jump into a surreal ride.
let these cats entertain you.
the bear desires, the tiger scratches.
our animal kingdom leaves no room for broken hearts.
have we witnessed such atrocities that we feel immune to them?
no no no.
hell no.

i will never permit the rational mind to rule my heart.
my heart belongs to me and only me.
and that is where i will go.
deep within.

so long, teenagedom.
the uncertainty of the era will shine the light,
of paths which narrow down,
to the road that leads to,
my home.

home is where the heart is.
always been.

Very nice ❤😍 thank's for sharing

Awesomeness! Really enjoyable poetry!

A place to be
But no home for me
A moment of peace, was borrowed to you
But not even a phone call
To look forward to
A heart long forgotten
With an absence of home
Like a fruit that is rotten
No one wants to own

Home is not where you lock yourself in and all others out, you will go far and hard to find home.

Beautiful poetry

Love your crafts:) Keep it up @honeybee :)

I am mesmerized by your poetry, such fantastic choice of vocabulary, emotion and honesty in one! ..our animal kingdom surely does leave no room for broken hearts. This is true.. but unfortunately the horrors of the world makes us numb and 'normalized' to the savageness.
but good people win out in the end.
Wonderful thought provoking for me today, on such an emotional day.

Great words! Yesterday i wrote a part of my way to the "home is where the heart is " feeling.
