Practicality of reality
Adjusting to society
gives me anxiety
Change? why should I?
Give into this pretentious lie
I am my own self
Let society consider me a fat elf
This is not acceptable
Life is not a fable
I have lived enough in reality
Considering all the practicality
Time to change my style
Escape this world for a while
I promise to stay strong
And not do any wrong.

PONDER ALL YOU LIKE
at night,
Or till the morning’s light.
Ill guard this throne,
In my dreams and all alone.
This is the throne of depression,
Currently my primary obsession.
They say I’m annoying as hell,
Wrapped In my cocoon or shell.
Till I cry or die,
All I can do is let my imagination fly.
