I am not diagnosed with anxiety,
But I know it is there.
I do not take pills,
But perhaps I should.
When I sit here with my thoughts
I know I should be doing something.
I cannot disappoint people
I cannot fail.

I diagnose myself with anxiety,
And the anxiety is you.
Instead of pills,
I reach for the bottle of liquor.
When I sit here with my thoughts,
I know I should be doing what you want.
I cannot disappoint you
I cannot fail.
I guess
It's because
Well maybe
It's partially
At fault
That they didn't
Fade to nothing
When I was with you

You deserve
Someone whose baggage
Meshes perfectly
With yours and
So do I
On a bu-bu-brighter note
It's not so much of a mystery anymore

I feel so dumb.
I sit here with tears filling my eyes, but yet I still believe you.
All you have to say is "I Love You," and I'll be right there at your feet.
I gave all of me to you that it pains me to ever leave.
I know you already left me, but yet I still stay.

Wake to gunshots like an alarm,
Another day in foreign lands,
Enemies who mean to do us harm,
The lives of my men in my hands.

Pinned down by bullets zipping by,
Always the first in the fray,
With help from the lord up high,
I will live to see another day.

All I can think of is the call from my wife,
While casings rain down from my gun,
She said don’t you dare waste your life,
Any day we are going to have a son.
Deticated to my closest friend. Hooah brother

The weight of the world
finally off my shoulders;
I can breathe again.

I'm sorry I give you so little love that you have to be satisfied with the little scraps people give you.

I'm sorry I beat you up for your imperfections instead of embracing them.

I'm sorry for all the times I've stayed up all night being horrible to you. Calling you stupid,ugly and unworthy.

I'm sorry for all the times I told you you deserve to die and that nobody would even notice if you were to disappear.

I'm sorry I have nothing but these words to offer you.

I pray that you will forgive me someday,Thami.
I've spent my teenage years punishing myself for not being perfect. Being mean to myself. Hating myself. Today,I begin my journey to truly accepting, loving and appreciating myself.
My eyes begin to close
And my mind begins to drift
I can’t control it
The thoughts race through my head

I think about you.
Your passion.
Your touch.
The way you place your hands on my hips
The way you trace the curvature of my spine
The way your hands glide softly over mine

A warmth begins to pool in my stomach
butterflies begin to stir from their slumber
I can feel the heat rising to my face as a smile begins to drift across my cheeks

Anticipation wells up in my heart as my mind drifts away
I allow it to drift , with a smile on my face
