"Write, so you can keep your sanity,"
As if I haven't been trying
To pick up a pen while i can't use my hands
To give my fingers rhytm with tones they deny to fathom
To activate my brain while it itches with pain
To see the cursor flickers up until it's hidden by liquor
To make everything makes sense, while I'm already insane


"Write, so you can keep your sanity,"
As if I haven't been dying
To pick up what's left of my piece of mind
To stitch the unpeaceful peace of mine
To burn but never stop to give the shine
To explode but never to whine


"Write, so you can keep your sanity,"
As if I haven't been falling
As if I haven't been fucking trying
So, this is what's come to mind of mine


20 March 2023. Pasha Fatahillah.
For you all ungrateful bastards.
