The Signs as Quotes from ‘Milk and Honey’

Gemini: May Rundown

Gemini Reactions PT TWO

The signs and weird places they sit in (just a suggestion) (also, I like sitting on counters, the stairs, and the left armrest of my living room chair)

Perception overrides realism Harming the realist eye ` Solicitude is felt for the ones with unveiled, yet cloaked eyes Tenderly protected, by ignorant perspective throttling the brain formulating misconception Societal standards on human acceptance The world gives us a twisted reflection Ideal beauty unreal in itself media’s perception softly guides the soul to hell Bleach soaked skin because beauty is light gnawing ribs cling to the skin eating away at the withered bones within Being different is not accepted by the rest if you’re not do not worry society is ugly I guess The inability to fly with clipped wings connected to the bottomless sand struggling to swim up for one gasp of air You can die or you can drown Swim or sail It’s the mind’s process of thinking Are you mentally sound? No blade satisfies The consistent thoughts in mind the cage of ribs held within clawing hands of the monsters that live inside People not blind to world issues is rare people ignorant to the truth it’s unfair they are clueless to the many who consist of internal boxes solid and enclosed Containing their lungs, their hearts, and their souls Insecurities build afraid to be judged When you’re categorized negatively in[S1] society, tough luck Poverty strikes war does kill but the world goes around the same yet still The mouth force fed both cheesy truths and appealing lies how are we to love ourselves when at the same time we hunger to live up to society’s lies When the faucet within slowly turns the handle inside water overflows flooding the big hollow eyes Bottomless hope ties you down in distress The narling wretched hands digging wounds prevent you from rest So, tell me dear society is today a truth or a lie should we fall to the end? to find ourselves right where we began Will darkness overshadow the dim wit at last? weeping dreams creating fabricated thoughts that ever last Foreshadowed fate will follow its path the sickening voice that prevails from our past Transparent sky treading water bare feet waters rise high swallow many in defeat The last breath the slip under is the last thought untold? forgotten eyes fill with solemn the spiraling downfall Chapters flash forward the mind ends with rest blank pages unfilled Is the legacy for last? Is this the only peace achievable to the broken it seems? The peace of drowning wave sounds and the vast ocean sea? Until human kind agrees to change its view of the world no matter of protest, speeches, or arguments told will fix the wicked ways of this world ~laurenmackenzzie

“Learn. To not fucking make decisions on what I want and to get angry at the stupidest shit because it didn’t go your way. I say things sometimes that aren’t nice but have you ever considered why? Maybe it’s because you treat me like shit sometimes. Telling me your the boss and I work for you. I know maybe sometimes it’s like that but not now. Not FOREVER. Oh also TRY NOT TO touch my things like it’s yours and do whatever you want with them cause guess what? You can touch your own damn things. I don’t understand why it’s so hard for you to understand I have feelings and you can’t always be the boss. Of me. Of everyone around you. Have you ever thought that’s why people don’t want to stay around you? Or they’re only there when you act fake? Well now you know or just reread all that^ and you’ll know.”
