Forgive

How we force happy endings at the cost of our own peace 

Like forgiveness  

Happy ever after 

While you are stuck with a monster 

Happy ever after 

As dark as the pits of hell 

Happy ever after 

Has never been this painful 

Happy ever after cost us our lives 

What she would do now to really sort things out and not brush them away with the invisible cloth of forgiveness 

What she would do now to use a different instrument 

What she would do now to smash the whole thing with a hard tool 

But she forgave you know like how she was taught 

Over and over every Sunday 

She didn’t stand a chance she would live with forgiveness 

As a forgiver

It only meant she would be abused 

The teaching was so deep that she would die before it was wiped clean off his consciences before he could ever see the danger of it 

It killed him 


They all said forgive 

Give him another chance 

What sheer rubbish 

Forgive meant abuse 

Be abused 

They’ve all been abused

They didn’t see any other way 

So they passed it onto the next generation 

Forgive they said 

Forgive 

Live and let live 

They said it and they demanded it 

When it suited them 

When they saw that things were going bad for them they demanded action against evil but when it was someone else they said forgive 

They knew exactly what they were doing 

They were playing at it like riding a car pressing the right paddle at the right time 


Forgive they said 

Forgive 

While leading us straight to our end 

Forgive I say forgive you say

Forgive we all say 

While the wars rage on and we continue to kill each other 

Forgive you say forgive I say forgive we all say every Sunday 

And forgive we did 

Until it was too late 


In peace we live now without all those concepts they died when we did 

No one to forgive 


I have no one to forgive 

I live in my own lane 

What a silly concept anyway

There Was A Time Before Algorithms

I know it’s going to sound strange but there was a time before algorithm   Where we basically made our own decisions Yes it sounds like we were out of rhythm   But actually we got to use our brains   People met each other offline   It was a fun time   Of-course there was no offline because there was no online   The only thing online was our brains   Now of-course our brains are offline our phones are online   Not that there is much of a difference between our phones and our brains   Haven’t you seen you go to sleep around the same time you leave your phone alone   Can’t function unless you are one with your phone So if your phone is your brain   Then what will your brain do? Anyway people met and spoke and determined if they would meet again  At an actual location, mostly outdoors, when the weather was right And you couldn’t just unsubscribe at the bottom of the email   You had to have a tough real conversation   Or r...

Love?

  The world understands love as dating and owning each other, having a person. Getting married to another person and all that jazz. Love in this way is someone that I will be jealous over. Someone that I will use for something, to get something out of them. To the world love is the person who carries my burdens, has to deal with my demons, my aggression, my flaws. Love also is not the contrary of all these things for if it were then it would not be love.   In the world a friend again is the person that you use/ abuse. When you need someone to burden and then fight with. Tell them your petty fights at work and mischievous things you find yourself entangled in.  What then is love? Love cannot be fenced into a description, precisely the word love is limited, it’s only a word and can be abused and is used and abused. Everyone uses that word even when they are drunk and when they make absolutely no sense. They use that word when they have abused their friends and want forgiven...

When people genuinely love each other there is no need for boundaries

When we love each other we do not need to set boundaries. Love overcomes the need for boundaries. It is when there is no love that boundaries exist.  If you love each other naturally you won’t hurt each other. However when there is contempt for each other we will hurt each other and then we will set boundaries.  Boundaries are not a natural part of our relationships. They are like borders, they are created because we have been hurt. They are created out of fear. When you become aware that someone can hurt you, you have to create a border / a boundary so that they do not hurt you.  Living in boundaries is limited. Rather live in love. We force ourselves into relationships that require boundaries as we have come to understand relationship as synonymous with conflict. We thrive from the ups and downs of relationships and thus we need boundaries from the very people that we say we love. Is it not possible to live without hurting each other?  Do you want to be in love or ...
