Stuck

He sits with his head in his hands,
Shaking.
He needs somebody,
Anybody,
To talk to him.
To be there for him.
But nobody will.
He’s tired of life
But too scared of death
He wants to know people
But he’s too scared of getting hurt
He wants to be accepted
But he’s worried that he won’t.
He’s stuck.
Stuck with this life
Stuck with this mind
Stuck with this endless desire to be heard by those who don’t want to listen.
He needs to move forward.
Walk,
One foot, then the other.
And soon, he’ll be running off into the light of day.

Run

Expectations

Born from expectations
Born for expectations
Born with expectations

Expectations rule us
They rule you

Don’t let them.

She used to make me smile
But now, all she does is make me cry
It’s my fault, I’m to blame
I’m starting to crumble inside.

L+R Is No More

In the beginning, you and I were like two stars in a cloudless sky
Staring at each other with such awe that we forgot that anything else existed
Holding hands and laughing and being together
Like two young people in love
But then we began to drift away
Stars with different goals in different places
You and I were like two shooting stars flying in opposite directions
Shooting across the sky in our own way, not thinking about each other
Not talking, not laughing, not holding hands
Just silence, and sadness, and disappointment
We weren’t meant to be
Not written in the stars like we thought we were
Just two people who thought it was love
Two people with everything
And nothing at the same time
We didn’t give each other what we needed
It was sad, but it had to happen
So I left her

i’m sorry

I broke up with my girlfriend of almost 4 months a few days ago, and I feel bad but it was the best thing to do for myself. It’s been making me sad though, so I decided to write about it.

EARTH

I got some inspiration from how drastically the tone and meaning of the words I use change on the “my words” page. Some of these were taken from that list, and some I came up with on my own.

Forevermore

Forevermore, I will speak
For myself and others in need

Forevermore, I will walk
This Earth without you shaming me

Forevermore, I will love
And I don’t care if you don’t want to see

Forevermore, I will be myself
To my heart, only I have to key

Wrote this in 5 minutes because I thought of the word “forevermore” and I thought it sounded nice.
