Welcome the destruction
Welcome the fear
Welcome the unknown
that stands beside us here

I am stronger now
than i have ever been
i am weaker now
and again will be

Welcome loneliness
welcome solitude
welcome the fine line
that separates them

Only when you are destroyed
will you know your true nature
only when alone
when treated unkind

The mind is intelligent
it will see you through
but only when you bow down,
to see yourself get untwined.

2.
Who do you bow down to?
A lover?

No.
For he will never be mine forever.

To money?
NO.
For it will never be enough.

To god?
No.
For he does not exist.

To beauty?
No.
For it is tricky.

To friends?
No.
They are my shoulders,
as I am their’s.

To family?

No.

They are my feet,
as I am their’s.

I bow to myself
for that is what i construct
through books and art
and strings of the heart.

(mistake it not for pride)
