whenever someone leaves us
we always say, ”they were so young,
their life shouldn’t have ended so soon.”
and it doesn’t matter whether they were young or old
but maybe when they do leave us
maybe what we mean is that they waited too long
that all they worked for for themselves was lost too soon
that they waited too long to be able to reap the rewards

should i be given a box
filled with all the items that i have lost
i would look to see if you were present
not so that i could see you again
but to make sure you weren’t there

read a note that was written to me
of someone whom i hold close
yet now they feel distant
their words felt desperate as if grasping for help
yet their words were of encouragement
hoping the best for me
i remember them feeling alone
feeling like i was all they had
they wanted to be saved
they knew i couldn’t
so all i could do was write a note for future me

they say that not every house is a home
that not every house provides you safety and comfort
but what happens when your home is a person
what happens when they leave and never return

should she visit my grave after i pass
let her be
let her walk up to where i was buried
and watch how her presence would bring me life

people say, ”you can’t love someone before you love yourself”
and i feel like that advice comes from a very broken place
perhaps those who give this advice would either not have gone through trauma
or not have fully healed from it
not all of us are strong enough to have loved ourselves first
we might not have found our own worth
but maybe in loving and being loved back
would help us realise the value within
the values that those who love us see that we have yet to ourselves

we are our own galaxy in the universe that is life
hurtling through space in an endless race
and in this universe sometimes galaxies may intersect trajectories
the explosive chaos that ensues when we find someone new is exciting and full of both pain and wonder
but not all galaxies end after they meet
sometimes they pass through each other after losing countless stars and systems
never truly a whole galaxy again
because when you lose someone, they take away their stars with them

good luck on your search
sifting through the dirt for fool’s gold
looking for a partner that can shine bright enough
just bright enough to match the gold you thought you had
the gold you’ve now lost

prideful and egoistic
stubborn and unwavering
but then i met you
we had our troubles and it was i who was to blame
it was a good run
and i am not so blind as not to see that i am better now because i met you
but i am still trying to be better even though now it may not be for you
i not the naive boy that came before
but a young man with much to learn

growing up i have always thought that how mature a person may be was not tied to age
however as i am now i think it could be
i believe now that age does have a tie to maturity
maybe not directly but as a causality
what comes with age is experience
so those who experience more when they were younger
age faster
