Even if I know death is inevitable, part of being human, I am still deeply angry at it angry and pained that one day we must break the hearts of those we love most, and that love alone cannot keep us here forever.

Maybe I don’t know. Maybe I never did. Maybe life isn’t something to figure out just something to feel before it slips away.

Maybe I don’t know
Every time you shrink, you whisper yes to defeat you accept less than what you asked for.

Unshrink
It is difficult to remain still. The mind wanders endlessly, pursuing moments that have yet to exist, measuring contentment by what is next rather than what is now. Dreams dissolve into worries, and even tranquility feels like something to be earned. Yet perhaps happiness is not found in striving, nor in waiting, nor in the endless pursuit of becoming. Perhaps it resides in the silence between thoughts, in the breath before a smile, in the delicate rhythm of just being, not reaching, not proving, only existing.

Just Being

Pondering
Why does it all feel right with you And wrong without you With you it all makes sense Or maybe I’m just addicted Like **** You make me see colors in dark places The rush I feel The high with you can be compared to none I’m binged on you The tweaking ,I can’t sleep I keep seeing you in my head And Sometimes I crash The terrible hangover The withdrawal is the worse and then I revert Cos I’m weak I need you like I need oxygen You are my addiction

Addiction
I get lost in my head Lost in thoughts Lost in fears Lost in doubts Pressure to be better To be great Fears that what if I can’t Hopes that what if I can Sometimes the demon wins And I get completely lost And sometimes I win Covered in bruises But a win I’d rather keep fighting Keep hoping Hope that I can Someday...

Lost sometimes...
We can’t always be happy We can’t always be strong We can’t always have it easy We can’t always be the best We can’t always be positive We can’t always be grateful We can’t always smile We can’t always be healthy We can’t always succeed We can’t always be okay We can’t always win We will all die someday It’s the bitter truth

The bitter truth
Alone but not                                   lonely Lonely but not                                    alone A true conundrum
