a beautiful and harrowing crisis
is that of an existentialist
facing the imminent reality
or lack thereof
that our chaotic universe has to offer
both uncomfortable and dully excruciating
to subscribe to the belief
that there is no belief
an order to see the disorder
and continue on nonetheless
rousing the heart and mind
to the harsh reality
to bear each decision and action
as their own
not inevitability
shaped by an omnipotent figure
but of their hands
accepting the absurd
and employing a fallible mind
to make subjectively rational decisions
in an objectively irrational existence

inhale
up
exhale
down
heavy
weighted
with the burden
of many emotions
unfelt until now

chamber of reflection
a space between four walls
no way out
no distractions
from the mirror of my mind
alone again

two points hurling through the void
both independent events
happening to overlap
just a moment
thus I am content
with a mere intersection
of your plane with mine

I'm not sure
if we have souls
or if its a metaphor
of our essence
but
either way
I want mine
to mingle with yours

The world isn’t my enemy
I am
any step I take forward
I pull myself back
with words
conjured up from insecurities
and painted with doubt
the fear of not
achieving
constantly looms over me
I’m not afraid to disappoint you
I’m afraid to disappoint
the little girl
I once was
and still am
the one who thought
she could do something
to shape her life and the world

it's easy being unconventional
and outlandish
when there's someone around
to make you feel
less strange
and more yourself
