Everyone Has A Poison



Everyone has a poison.
The word you tell yourself.
To justify your proclivities.
It doesn't eliminate the risk of poisoning

Gambling, sex, drugs or alcohol.
Choose your poison, the list is endless.
The lie they tell you.
To keep you addicted.


It keeps you going.
It's fun and uplifting 
The words they tell you. 
So you will remain a slave.


Everyone has a poison.
Don't give in to pressures.
Refuse to be a slave.
You don't need a poison to live.

Still Stuck With You.

Image
I Threw out old boxes, Regrets and photographs, Empty pockets and lockets, That reminds me of you. I deleted folders and archives. I destroyed albums and souvenirs. I burnt bridges and built walls. All these and more I did. To erase your memories. To wipe out our history. Yet, you're still stuck in my mind. © Toobrightanthony

What Heartbreak Can Do.

Image
The brain is burdened, with stormy thoughts,  The eye is heavy, with rivers of tears, The mind is numb, dry as desert, The soul is shattered, the heart is broken, A solitary confinement, still feel crowded, A lot of conversations in the head, no spoken words, The day is dark, the night is scary, Suspense and anxiety, all felt at once, This is what heartbreak can do to you. © Toobrightanthony  📸 @@pexels.com

Life Happens To Us All.

Image
Life happens to us all, no one is left out, To the worst, and the very best of us, We all experience life events and issues, Even those that seems to have it all figured out, Life do take them unawares several times, It's not a bad omen or ill luck, It's part of the essence of our existence, Life happens to us all, no one is left out, We can only hope and pray to be dealt a fair hand. © Toobrightanthony  📸@pexels.com
