Not Anymore.


This constipated existence has nettled me enough.
This whole society and its norms are a bluff.
These people and their rotting culture
To Their sense of wrong and right I have all this while hung
Only to find it was all rotten junk.

I fell for a man once god what a chauvinist he was
Thanks to him for teaching me this society is a lost cause.

It’s time to seize life now.

Free it from the chains the fetters that make it cough.
For moments have been lost enough
The struggle with this mediocrity might be tough
But I promise you life dearest I will free you from their pretence
And escape with you to the
Garden of intoxicating joy and love.
