Everywhere is quiet. Family is in bed, But I can't sleep. 1 in the morning Alone with my thoughts. Thats when the demons come. I dont sit in the quiet anymore. Sound is my solitude. Music, videogames, movies, and Youtubers. White noise and talking to my animals. My life isn't living. Its a routine that I do. I have no emotion in any of my actions. Needs, and have toos I do. Desires have long since departed. Thoughts are not to be thought but pushed deep into my forgotten memories. Thinking is too realise And realization is to spiral down Down into somewhere that is hard to come back from. My life is Hell on Earth. If i die, my hell will be this world. If i die, this world will be my karma. If i die will i even realise it?

Thoughts in the Quiet
Never again will I Be able to think of you Without remembering The pain you caused me. I never did anything But I was always the problem, Always the scapegoat In your life. Well, now I'm leaving; I can't stay. Too many memories, Too many hurts. Are you happy now? Of course not. You never are.

The Problem
When You finally leave me Will u do it like a knife? Quick and clean No putting it back together I dont want to have hope And then have it crushed like an ant. When u stay I am confused. I never know what to do So unconsciously I make A decision To push u far away Never will I be hurt again Why? Because I will always hurt u First "Don't come back" I say Yet u always come back "Please leave me" i say But ur always by my side U love me And I will never admit it But I love u too

I love you too
Never again Is once upon a time. Now it is always and forever because it never, ever stops. The cycle never ends, The pain, The love, The beauty, The destruction. I can't stop it so why do I even try? I am pushing at a door that won't budge, I am walking down an endless corridor With pictures on the wall. Pictures of children and couples who smile and play and dance. They plead with me to keep going, that there is an end to this corridor. The only thing I have to do is persevere.

Persevere
Why does everyone tell me to push on through? That I'll make it? That I am stronger than I think? I know this. I am a survivor. But how long will that last if I have no one to survive for? They say the world is worth living, but all the people who made it worth living are gone. So is it really? There is pain, and death, and destruction everywhere I look. So who am I living for? Those people?or myself? I am not sure anymore

Surviving
I am still new New to people, New to speech, Still new to myself. I am still learning, Trying and failing. I am a pioneer, I am Blazing my own path Through this world. I am sorry if I can't communicate, Still learning about words, people, holding on, and letting go. I am sorry if I offend you. Still learning about remembering, and forgetting, to keep, and let go. I am still learning how to LOVE

Learning
I want to sleep; I am not allowed. I can't escape; I am not allowed. I feel like I am Sinking in quicksand; And the walls are too high To see out of. It's been so long Now I don't even know If I want to see out. I am stuck; And I don't know if I want to get out anymore.

I Dont Know
Defining Myself You see as much we Try to define ourselves The only thing we are doing Is scrambling in the Darkness; Knocking things over, Never going anywhere. Just an eternal cycle of Pain and destruction As each of the Conventional molds reject us, Telling us that we’ll Never fit in. Because we are truly Shapeshifters; Taking on whatever Form is needed To survive in this Cruel place humans Call home. Who am I? I try to find out But the more I search The more I get Lost.
