if I quit when life gets hard I've already lost
unable to control what happens to me. only how i respond to it
doing all the more despite. not all the less because
why the fuck live a life that is "normal" when nothing is no longer normal
more likely to regret the things I didn’t do than the things I did
why not now to everything
fuck the what ifs
embrace finitude
die with zero
 
people don’t pity me because my life is bad, they pity because my existence nullifies their excuses
I do more in a worse “circumstance” than them which invalidates their inaction
the ones who feel* most sorry for me are unironically those who’ve done nothing
they feel bad about the loss of my body having never done anything with theirs
sympathize for yourself
 
someone can suffer and still live more fully than they do which terrifies them
it’s not our pain that unsettles them – it’s our resilience
people crave equality because it gives them an excuse to be content with what they are, rather than suffering the process of becoming
comfort doesn’t equal happiness
struggle doesn’t erase purpose
 
weakness starts in the mind
no sympathy for the weak
if you don’t have a healthy mind there’s no point in having a healthy body
if you can’t control your head. you’re dead
 
life is short because we* waste most of it
life is long if you know how to use it
if you die enough, you’ll live forever
 
once you experience the worst* experience in your life what's left that can stop you
unable to live to be healthy
one can live to be beautiful
the fate of those destined for a young death is a gift
 
pain is what makes profound
in the absence of pain there is nothing
 
i'd rather eternity in the future at the expense of longevity in the now
being like the child is the ultimate stage of spiritual metamorphosis
 
operating in six-month intervals. thankful for another one
I hope we can keep this party going for the rest of my life

endings
 
 
the most this decade has been
a wealth of experiences
a span of a beautiful life
a flame that starts to burn quick but burns the brightest

premature decay
change of plans
a movie cut short
adaptations
pacing towards the end credits

to live out my dreams
with a sense of urgency in everything
and living life accordingly
which paints life with all the more colour
and all the more meaning

unconcerned by the death of the body
but the death of the mind
on the fringes of physical control

meanwhile
a society losing its humanity
myself losing my own
double disability
constrained in different ways
yet free in others
 
and yet the more loss and suffering I experience
all the better life feels
tremendously so

 
it’s not death at all that is bad
but the manner of death and the manner of life before death 
death itself is neither it just is

transcending
trying to get as close to the heavens
getting as close to death as possible
that way when death does arrive
I’m already there

 
and it’s not the length of your life but what you’ve achieved in the amount of time that you’ve lived
better the life that is short and full of content
than that without it
in other words
i'd rather live a short intense life
than a long monotonous one

To be able to think and see
Yet unable to move
Perpetually disappointed
A body and society both in decline
Towards disability
A mind now writing indifferently
A body that hears everything the mind says
Free yet unfree
 
To not be a victim of circumstance
To be the result of choices made
To live all the more despite, not all the less because
To be indifferent
 
To focus on the things out of my control is maddening
Extending my torture
Ruining the rest of my hours
 
To focus on what I can control
Everything changes
 
To accept everything as if I had desired it
As if I prayed for it
To want everything that is happening to me
To want death more
To never want this to go away
 
This condition that gives me clarity and urgency
This better awareness of mortality
This better understanding of the human condition
 
This knowing of how to live
This knowing of how to die
 
Only when I want what I am going through do I start living
And If I never start living
I will nevertheless die
With never having lived
 
And the closer I get to death, unironically the more I feel alive
To live life at the outermost limit
To get as familiar with death as possible
To grow with death by its side as closely as I can
So that when death smiles at me
All I can do is smile back
 
…
 
So when death does occur
 
I am already there

For me.

 

The door to the roof, the casket coming to a close

The reaper waiting at the bottom of the stairs

The child in him, unaware, hopeful, at once just like the other kids

Death following him everywhere

By the garden

Down the hospital hallways

In his bed

Years of blissful ignorance

Moving through most of his life uninterrupted

I thought he had more time

 

For you.

 

Life without living. Connected without connection. Memory without memory. Experiences without experience. Love without loving. Things without things. Texts without textures. Place without place. Dwelling without dwelling. Moving without movement. Humans without humanity. Dying without dying.

Being without meaning.

Surrounded by constant obedience. Blind compliance. Entering a world where one is no longer able to face struggle, yet one full of struggle. Stuck within an ICU. A Server. What instead takes place is a great suffering. Removed from the real world, matrix living, stuck in the cave, unable to be offline, to close the eyes. One no longer knows how to die.

Bread and Circus.

Colliding declines, clashing. The reset juxtaposes my own. A reset in full force. A reset that was very much my own test. A seeing the world for what it really is, that I was previously not in control of my life. A life now mine that I take full responsibility of, all the burdens, struggles, sufferings I am grateful for. This is real freedom.

I’m thankful for this. All the pressure that is privilege. Not the woke virus that infects the minds. All that keeps you plugged, dependent, as a no body. Tied and dependent to the system. Always living by, for and through the machine. You disappear.

The angels no longer envy the human.

 

In search of a real world.

One that flees my grasp however one now clear. To take hold before it and I disappear.

The roof is still the only authentic act of escaping the server

To mediate between earth and sky

Heaven and hell

Above the trauma factory, the server of everyday das-man

 

One can only get to heaven through dying. It’s important I die along the outer most limit. A life that may be short, yet one full of meaning.

 

Another year I’ll take.

years removed
from a condition that highlights my finitude
from a society that conforms and obeys
meaningless exchanges and non-freedoms
two sides of the same coin, towards disability

the last healthy years wasted
foreshadowing the decline
the reset
I had everything I wanted and now it’s over

your world reopened, mine remained closed 
new chapters were started, and I’m writing my last
perhaps the whole book is closing
a revised expiry date
a new start, a new end
meaninglessness on the periphery
trapped, feels never ending

disintegration
of society
of the body
of the spine
of the mind
a wake up call
to find meaning in the suffering
to learn how to die
a series of necessary losses

the server and the body reset in sync
a condition illuminating what really matters
death providing guidance into every decision
authentic
human

everything becomes a memory
inaccessible, overwritten
a broken scratch disk
fearing a life without memories
a life without meaning
not fearing death, fearing insignificance
insignificance is not remembered
the simulacra is insignificant

no choice
but to adjust my life accordingly
to change perspectives
there was still so much more I had planned
the bucket list becomes clear, real
a doing of everything I can, while I can
a tired hare who now races the clock
impulse to frantic activities
stumbling on my own steps

nothing new
just new distances
just lesser versions of everything i’ve already felt
a dream that is collapsing
a child that was sparred

everything happened so fast
everything becomes the last
the last chance to climb
the last chance to dance
the last chance to ..

i don’t want to stay here in this town
yet I slow down
now in this permanent lockdown
it feels like i won’t make it out

to another year

towards death
towards freedom
towards the real

towards the roof

time moves fast and life looks bleak
before I pass I wanna live my dream by @triggermemory

mind over matter;

I noticed people tend to live their lives acting as if they’ll have a second chance.. on cruise control till it’s too late and everything crashes to an end

Wasting away their health and most of the hours they are alive 

Crabs in a bucket, a herd mentality pulling you down.. 

Programmed from the start

Cogs in a machine.. 

Uncontrolled of their time and attention

Living an online and meaningless existence

This ride is all going to end way before you know it.

--

This unending frustration, unbridled thoughts, consumed the best of me

Unplugging from the matrix

Yet my health brought new challenges to the equation

Realizations

Working towards freeing myself from the anxiety of death

and a shift in priorities and where I find meaning

in a free mind

in faith 

in family

in freedom

--

Transcending through life towards death

Rooftopping to alter my state of consciousness

A reminder of death and being

An escape that is fleeting

As my health declines, so does my reach towards my ascension

The rooftop as a chase to trace the edge of life and death

To remember what it means to be human

The climb of life and the edge of death

At this moment my climb interrupted

My way of being human

Cut short, collapsing, trembling

An unsteady balance

Destined to die

The stairs come to an end

This time the roof closer than I imagined

wake up call

knees weak

legs tight

trembling

unsteady

time fleeting

heart beating

seeking a life of meaning

fighting 

to catch my balance 

to make my mom proud

to reach the finish line

but i keep failing everytime

sitting at the edge of the world 

still afraid of my feelings

I'm scared to jump 

please don't come near me

I'm reminded of days

when the time wasn't raced

had my eyes to the sky

with my hands on your waist

too soon for things to end

heaven has to wait

mental notes;

self improve

think critically 

question the narrative

unplug

go where you’re treated best

find what you really want out of life 

lean into the fear

seek the truth

own your shit

control your emotions

master your mind 

trust God in everything

and enjoy the decline

woke up with a pain in my neck

numb

complaining about the things i left unsaid

in the sheets in my bed

unable to write a happy note to save my life

and now i’m 26 years old, feel like i’ve died twice

damaged memories, they’re all frayed

the old me feels so betrayed

how did it even get this way

everything i feared is all that i’m in

making amends with the person i could’ve been

years came and went

fucking useless

fleeting moments

blank memories

passing

seasons

getting older

winters coming, feeling colder

losing the things i fought and worked tirelessly for

out of reach

restricted

coerced

forced

reframed my mind

views

values

a change of direction

a change in mindset

to continue this life

of disappointment

apathy

lockdowns, limbo

unhappiness

depression

trapped in discomfort

dead ends

wanting to end things

to hang from the ceiling

i know me so well

and this is hell

stuck in the grain

painting colours in my brain

i’m the only one that keeps me together

i only hope it gets harder

the struggles

they give me purpose

something to fight for, against

I don’t want to run

avoiding comfort, convenience, the average

the enemy of growth

deserving better

going where i’m treated best

not some half life

some false sense of safety, security

void of freedom

freedom of thought

belief

choice

void of what God gave me

what really matters

i don’t want to die

living a safe life

when its safe means never

get me out of here

searching for an exit

maybe this was what i’ve been asking for

what i needed

to create the life for myself that i dreamed of

not this

indecision and a sick mind

am I wasting my time

still have too much faith in love

still wishing i could feel it all again

a heart that’s full

free from complication

that absorbs my time

to be a better man

execute what’s on my mind

to start new, to carry on, to not look back

i’ll be the one that you’ll forget

maybe the one you’ll tell your kids you used to know

maybe the name that slips your mind

in the back of your head

stored and confined

 

i’ll hold on, i’ll be fine
