The human mind

[JoeRoccoCassara]

The scariest thing isn't a monster, or a drunk father, but dreading what you will think of next, knowing that it will get worse, like supressed memories. The human mind is as brilliant, puwerful and fundamental, as it is disturbed.

 

 

Physical pain can be cut off, disconnected, but mental pain, fear, cannot.

Can you compose a comprehensible theory explaining the properties of mental pain? Please refrain from taking a psychoanalytic apporach and the Nirvana-principle.

I'll take the challenge to compose the qualities of mental pain.

 

It may be the thought you dont want to think of, but you just cant let go.

The truth you realised, but you just wished you didnt know.

Something on a universal scale that began the size of your hand,

The way you see the world but no one else can understand.

The idea of the ultimate challenge on a boring evening at home.

Followed by trying to save the world when you knew that it wouldnt be so.

Ahh the euphoria, I may have found a way.

But then doh it means I have to do something and its a much much harder day.

Torn between the reality of lies and the fantasy of truth.

Lost love and lost dreams in the reflections of my youth.

The pursuit of perfect harmony when the concept is to be denied.

My potentiality being tested till the moment that I cried.

My dad, he came by one day and cut down that tire swing he made for me. It was strange, didn't say why. I saw a story on TV, a man being interviewed about his boy who committed a terrible crime. The son was addicted to drugs and wore a prosthesis: A fall from a tree he had taken as a boy. They go back sometimes I think to myself, and pay a priceless gift for doing so. One day you'll think to do the same; they won't look nearly as bad to you then as they might do now. Some things you can only know by living a long time.
