Mauthausen


The floorboards creak with memories
The timber walls scream silence.
There is nothing left in this void,
Nothing but silence.

Cobblestones clean, where blood was once spilt
The rain feebly tries to erase these past evils.
Shadows all around, yet the light offers no comfort,
This hallow feeling; is it emotion?
Words cannot describe.

Graffiti stains the walls, touching phrases of peace and remembrance.
Alas it is too late, for nothing can remove the sins of the past.

Conformity.

Why do you have to be scene to be seen?
You have to escape from the herd just to be heard.

Jealousy

I was sitting at home one night and an event occurred that inspired me to write this. I had become very jealous about something that really shouldn't have made me feel like this. I was actually surprised at how much the emotion overtook me for a short while, I was even mad at myself for feeling like this over such an insignificant happening. Anyway this is what i wrote:

Jealousy.
Gets you nowhere; so what's the point?
Carries these feelings of longing and unrelented wanting to a level closely related to animosity.
It is not healthy, it bears no good will.
Jealousy leads to anger and even depression.
How can it be overcome?
Hope?
Nothing feeble or the feelings come flooding back, sometimes stronger, seeping into your veins and expanding through your chest.
"I want," and "I deserve" are two completely different things, one jealous, one humble.
To Beat this entity that produces nothing positive take a hold of patience and embrace humility to drive this inner demon before it takes a hold and destroys you from within.
