Give me something, God. Just give me something please. Well, you always seem to give me something. Always something. But then you always let me down Because something is never enough. So should I ask for everything? Is that the message? At one point, I tried asking for everything And was also denied. I’m not going to ask for nothing Because that’s the one thing I’ve always had. But there seem to be No other options.

Should I Ask For Everything?
I often feel like All of my hopes & dreams are frivolous Because I can’t seem to establish basic agency Or stability in my life So what hope is there Of my life ever having any kind of meaning Or sense of fulfillment in the future? My dreams mean nothing Because my life means nothing. Because ultimately, I’m not actually meant to be a human. How do I get rid of my dreams? I’ll never be able to even try to fulfill them, Much less fulfill them. It’s too painful to keep dreaming But I don’t know how to stop.

Hopes & Dreams
I hope that when I die, Whenever that may be, My soul is reincarnated Into someone that can actually make use of it Because obviously this life was not meant for me To make use of my soul. Because I feel like I have A truly beautiful and unique soul, But it is wasted on the life that I currently have, And probably always will be. To me, it is almost certain Based on the life I’ve already had thus far That the potential of my soul Will never be realized in its current incarnation (i.e., my life). So perhaps then I can make the purpose of my life To be able to cultivate my soul as much as I can. Not so that the next incarnation— The next keeper of my soul Can avoid experiencing all the pain, All the devastation, all the heartbreak, But so that the next keeper of my soul Won’t have to be confused about how to conquer those challenges. They will find themselves already equipped (To their surprise) To handle the challenges that await them Because of me. It’s clear to me (For now, because I can only operate in the now) That my life was not meant for me to be thinking About my dreams, my future, or my potential. My life was meant only for me To try to survive until I die one day. My biggest dream at this point Is for the next incarnation (hopefully) To use my soul (our soul?) And take it to its full potential. I also hope they get to use our soul And its unique energy To find the deepest, most authentic love and connections. May our soul help the next incarnation of myself Build the strongest support system possible. Another dream of mine would be, If the afterlife exists, Being able to follow the trajectory of my next incarnation So I can enjoy the success, fulfillment And human connection I was never allowed in my life. May they be born to a loving and supportive family That gives them the space to be Who they know they were always meant to be. With that being the purpose I’ve realized for myself now, I can hopefully endure all of my future challenges In hopes that it will all benefit my next incarnation. I am almost jealous of my next incarnation Because of the beautiful life they are probably going to have. However, looking at the silver lining (Which I always do, even against my will sometimes), My life will at least have served the purpose Of benefiting someone else’s.
