You toil and toil, Hoping it will make a difference. But when you look around, You see nothing but shit. Shit so deep That it reaches to your knees. Shit so stinky That it makes you want to puke. It only keeps piling up. It only keeps bogging you down. It only makes you feel [...]

Three Second Story: Humbled

Taking a Step Back
It's fine, once in a while, To step back For someone else To shine. It's fine, once in a while, To not be in the hurry That we were born into And kept on living in. It's fine, once in a while, To not be as ambitious As we had always been, Never settling for [...]
Selfless
How hard is it To let go, When all you want is To hold on? How hard is it To understand Everything except you Fits into someone's plan? How hard is it To smile for someone When all you want is To cry out loud for yourself? How hard is it To know if you [...]

Either way, we stand betrayed. When a connection breaks, There's still hope of revival. When trust breaks, all ends, As we stand [...]
Flattering
Utter nonsense uttered, With no head or tail. Yet you expect me To humour you. Are you kidding me? You know it's stupid. You know you're being stupid. Yet you want me To flatter you. Are you kidding me? Especially when time is scarce, Especially when patience is done with, Yet you try pushing me [...]
What Easter Means to Me

We could all do with some hope, right? We all have our struggles, our disappointments, our complete set of [...]
Lump in the Throat
What is that lump in the throat? That feeling of muscle contraction, Which leaves us a little breathless? It is that subdued yearning. That feeling which has been repressed. All those words left unspoken. How nice it would be To get done with them, To get over the lump.
