Pockethole

Flashing electric lights - they dont sting
moving colours - they run into each other
random flashes of thought- they skip one after another
heartbeat sounds
..and a smirk

cos i'm not wat i wanna be
cos i'm not really happy
am i now??

slightly sure but not fully
oh! tHose colours flash again in the dark
snap back to reality
snap back to madness
snap back to sadness
snap back to happiness
snap again...where am i??

back in the multi-coloured wilderness
with that secret still in mind
clinging like a leech
is life really worth its pain?
obviously yes...snap...not

so i was sitting - an audience
"wats ur problem?", he asked.
people cried and replied.
the ocean swelled
waves got larger
people were crazy now
i was in the middle....thinking

The water was cold...and it was utter chaos
people died around - they sank but they cried wen they were alive - like me.

The ocean unleashed its fury all around.
he had a smile.
i faced him and begged.
"I can't help u"
I spat.
"Not in my control"
"Who is to blame, then??"
"No one"

The ocean retreated. People were groping - still alive.
You've gotta be happy.
Love a walkman, a bike, a car ? - buy it
gotta hold on till the end cos no one is happy
..but no one is sad now..they shall soon be.

the image faded..back into the colours.

It said

"open your eyes, its best i cant accept u or reject u. that is how it is. live it and colour it better than this can, for man has always. Be made of diamond cos others are brittle"
