I know this feeling, that hunch that gets tickly then
makes me chill. It gives me an itchy brain, it stings. It's when I hear
something and get inspired. It’s when I hear something to get inspired. I let
the flow of music do all the magic. I surrender to the spell that is cast at me
by the lyrics. They take me on a journey into the realms of my inner mind; the
eye that I can't see sees it all. I can see a visual representation of the
verbal expression; a clip created by my mind’s composition. I get the hunch
that this creation of my mind is the best that anyone could actually do. It has
no match to any other thing anyone can compose. Maybe it’s just because it’s
mine, I made it, it belongs to me and that’s why it’s beautiful; that’s why
it’s beautiful in my own imagination. I surrender to the spell that my head has
put me under. I only had to bring to life the magic words that I’ve already
unconsciously composed and stored somewhere hidden away from my own reach as
well as from the reach of others so that no one can actually sabotage the
production yet to be produced. It's a whole world of inspiration waiting to get
you inspired and waiting to get exposed through you, so let it. That’s how art
works for me, it’s not only an expression, it’s a life; it’s the air that you
allow to get into you to make your body function. Art is an expression, so
indulge in that expression and bring it to life the way it brought you.
If I could rewind time to its slowest, I'd look at life at its heights and its lowest, So I could try to recollect What made me who I am besides a poet! Devlin ft. Diane Birch_Rewind...I am a writer, that's what I am, my identity.

Survival
Woooohoo,
oh, wow, hoWoo
Hang on
here buddy, don’t fall; hang on
Come on
young fellow, you can do it
Just don’t look
down
Don’t mind
those bricks, and this wood beneath your head
Don’t mind
this string, so thin,
Stretched
to its best by your weight hanging down
Just forget
that it might fail you
Forget that it
might die
And bring up your death with it, forget that it might cry
Just hang
up here buddy, forget the ground beneath you
Keep up
hanging in the air, don’t smash your head against the floor
You’ve been
doing it for quite some time
You’re
doing it for a living
You’re a
survival, that’s what you do, that’s what you are
They drain
you off your life as they write and paint
They then call
you names when you faint
They dye
you and then throw you when you’re out of life
They don’t
try to fill you with a breath of life
Some of your kind get
lucky and fall in the hands of those who care
But they care for their possessions, not out of good will
They fill
their lives by taking out yours,
They drain you dry to write their stories
They just forget
that you’re their companion
And despite their ignorance, you’ve always survived
You’re not
going to die for you’re a survival
They manifacture you only to please them, to assist them with their lives
And they
seem to forget that you’re a survival
For centuries
you’ve thrived
You fought
against their demolition, against their loss of memory
You fought
against time!
You’ve made
it through their worst
and it takes more than a couple of inches to put you down
Yes you’re
a tiny, little blue pen, hanging at the end of a blanket
But you’re
the winner, you’ve always been
So just don’t
slide and crash against the ground
You’ve made
it through the worst and the worst is not now
So hang up on here buddy, and know that you are
The king of all winning cards, you're a survival .
So hang up on here buddy, and know that you are
The king of all winning cards, you're a survival .

Three Cups
Three cups
on a table and all behold
The statement
“drink me in, just take a sip”
As the
thirst crushes my throat and dries
My veins
out of life and tampers with my vision.
Three cups
on a table and I’m unable to choose.
One will
put my thirst to an end and one
Will put my
life at stake, it’s that I know
There is
always a catch; it can’t be easy.
I stumble
and I fall as my eyes flash as a corrupted program
I’m
shutting down, as if a machine losing power
My hand
hits one of the cups, and it falls to the floor
It breaks
and its contents flow
Blood it is,
fresh and warm.
I manage to
catch the other one in the row
It isn’t
water, it isn’t wine
A liquid
colorless, tasteless and vague
Just as my
life as it scrolls in front of me.
I drink and
drink but my throat is still dry
I firm my
grip over the cup and I squeeze it tight
I drown myself
in the liquid that never satisfies
My thirst,
nor my throat, nor my anger, growing.
I come to
the last as I tremble and stutter
I raise it
to my lips as if a growling animal
I hold it
with both hands, I try to drink it and kill my thirst
It’s an
empty cup but heavy as a burden.
I fall onto
the ground and twist as I’m hurting
In swirls
and in circles.
I’m finally
set and silent
As someone
hurls in to my crying and my sound.
He sees me
cut and bleeding, he sees me dead and pleading
He sees the
crushed cup of blood
And the one
with the nameless drink
He sees the
one that’s empty tightened to my grip
As he’s
shocked, he tries to loosen my tight
And as the
cup is detached from my hand he reads
“Misery”
engraved in my palm.
He crawls back
in horror, he stands up and runs
He pumps in
the walls that meets his path
And that’s
how his life went on after seeing me lying dead
And he
never tells my story, he never narrates what his eyes beheld.
So here is
my story told, here’s mystery getting unfolded
Narrate the
story and listen to the sound
Of the
changing direction of the wind
It’s “Misery”
that I chose as the cup from which I drink
And it’s my
curse that has befallen on the person who stayed silent.

I know that there should be somebody out there for me waiting for me as well and he's just as insane as I am, as hyper as I am and as lovely as I wish he would. I know, no I believe that there is someone out there waiting for me and he shares the same passions with me, the same relentless mind and high, untamed spirit that craves for whatever breaks the norms.
