what do you feel?

what your mind tells you it’s convenient 

or what you heart wants you to know?

how do you move?

to fit in the tiny space society leaves you

or where your body leads you to?

when will you try?

when it won’t hurt anybody 

or when your desire will be stronger than your fears?

why do you live?

to survive every day and prove some weird point to people that don’t care

or to make good use of the so little time we have on earth,

making it worth it to endure the pains and experience the joys,

coming to terms with death as a closure rather than an abrupt ending?

to wake up every day and acknowledge 

each of our little personal realities

is to be conscious and conscientious.
