Teenage Angst

our emotional state of choice is ecstasy. our nourishment of choice is love. our addiction of choice is technology. our religion of choice is music. our currency of choice is knowledge. our politics of choice is none. our society of choice is utopian though we know it will never be. you may hate us. you may dismiss us. you may misunderstand us. you may be unaware of our existence. we can only hope you do not care to judge us, because we would never judge you. we are not criminals. we are not disillusioned. we are not drug addicts. we are not naive children. we are one massive, global, tribal village that transcends man-made law, physical geography, and time itself. we are the massive. one massive. we were first drawn by the sound. from far away, the thunderous, muffled, echoing beat was comparable to a mother's heart soothing a child in her womb of concrete, steel, and electrical wiring. we were drawn back into this womb, and there, in the heat, dampness, and darkness of it, we came to accept that we are all equal. not only to the darkness, and to ourselves, but to the very music slamming into us and passing through our souls: we are all equal. and somewhere around 35Hz we could feel the hand of god at our backs, pushing us forward, pushing us to push ourselves to strengthen our minds, our bodies, and our spirits. pushing us to turn to the person beside us to join hands and uplift them by sharing the uncontrollable joy we felt from creating this magical bubble that can, for one evening, protect us from the horrors, atrocities, and pollution of the outside world. It is in that very instant, with these initial realizations that each of us was truly born. we continue to pack our bodies into clubs, or warehouses, or buildings you've abandoned and left for naught, and we bring life to them for one night. Strong, throbbing, vibrant life in it's purest, most intense, most hedonistic form. in these makeshift spaces, we seek to shed ourselves of the burden of uncertainty for a future you have been unable to stabilize and secure for us. we seek to relinquish our inhibitions, and free ourselves from the shackles and restraints you've put on us for your own peace of mind. we seek to re-write the programming that you have tried to indoctrinate us with since the moment we were born. programming that tells us to hate, that tells us to judge, that tells us to stuff ourselves into the nearest and most convenient pigeon hole possible. programming that even tells us to climb ladders for you, jump through hoops, and run through mazes and on hamster wheels. programming that tells us to eat from the shiny silver spoon you are trying to feed us with, instead of nourish ourselves with our own capable hands. programming that tells us to close our minds, instead of open them. until the sun rises to burn our eyes by revealing the distopian reality of a world you've created for us, we dance fiercely with our brothers and sisters in celebration of our life, of our culture, and of the values we believe in: peace, love, freedom, tolerance, unity, harmony, expression, responsibility and respect. our enemy of choice is ignorance. our weapon of choice is information. our crime of choice is breaking and challenging whatever laws you feel you need to put in place to stop us from celebrating our existence. but know that while you may shut down any given party, on any given night, in any given city, in any given country or continent on this beautiful planet, you can never shut down the entire party. you don't have access to that switch, no matter what you may think. the music will never stop. the heartbeat will never fade. the party will never end. i am a raver, and this is my manifesto.

GOD

without Him, i would not exist. without Him, i would not know what it is to breathe every day. without Him, i would not have a reason or purpose to walk this earth. without Him, i would not know what it is to be love, and give love, and have love.

I'm not content

I'm not content

-where I am
-doing what I'm doing
-with who I am
-how I look at life
-the issues going on around me
-with friends that don't care
-the boys around me
-my opinion on my looks

I feel like I'm stuck though.

I want to get away, but I have no money.
I want to do other things, but I have no talent for them.
I want to be a better person, but everytime I try, I fail.
I want to be an optimist, but my bad luck catches up to me causing my pessimism.
I want to change the world, but because of the people in this world, I feel like I can't.
I want to find people that care, but it seems as though I only attract those who don't.
I want to look in the mirror and think I'm beautiful, but it's too hard.

I don't want to have this damp look on life.
Within the past 6 months I've:
- I've been stressed out
- I've said hurtful things
- I lied to people
- I've been selfish

etc.

I have terrible luck.
I don't know what I'm doing wrong, I try.
Please from your point of view, tell me!

I have faith, but everytime I do it seems like that
falls through making me that much more scared to
have faith about big things.

I want to grow closer to people.
I want love & understanding.
I want to learn, at least something, from everyone I encounter.

I feel stuck.

Take me with you.

nothing upon nothingness

today is a day of indifference.
sundays give me the blues.
mondays get me right back down.
tuesdays everything stays the same.
wednesdays i feel regret.
thursdays i don't care.
fridays could be heaven or hell.
saturdays are overrated.

i can't look forward to anything anymore. i want to get out & just see the repetition of white lane lines dodging the tires beneath. i want to feel something more than an expectation of doing the same thing week after week after week. i'm sick of my life. i wish i could enjoy more things but at this moment, second, & place in the 4th dimension i cannot feel a thing other than anxiety of not wanting to be where i am. tell me something inspiring to lift my spirits. as of right now the evil ones are dragging me around by my shoulders.

Take me with you.

a beautiful mind

An amazing gift usually astounds people and relaxes as well as giving people sort of trance moment in which time stands still as you gaze among something so lovely its as if its not of this world and in fact a dream. I see myself as beautiful. I have a beautiful mind. I'm into the arts and its what changes my perspective on things. Music, books, and movie have changed my life. Without them, I would be nothing. I'm not talking about looks. Beautiful is something that amazes you, something that catches your eye. I see myself as a shooting star and no can ever stop me, ever. Something wonderful. A weird soul that has just risen and that the earth has never seen anything like it. I try to live life as its meant to be lived and not give a shit about anything else. I hate when people take themselves too seriously and are self-centered. No gives a shit about what you have to say. Just live your life, damn it. You're not more important than anyone else. We were all meant to live and die. We are immortal and its what makes us all equal. We should be on with the earth for we have destroyed her. We are just evil self-centered human beings. We are all selfish, conceited. I don't believe thats right. I see myself as a true human. Ive seen the worst in life and that is understanding life. Thats what being a human is.

"There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. A high-powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die. "
