I've been using tears and anger
To hide the fact that
I'm just really really tired.
And I don't think caffeine
Or pills
Are helping anymore.
I'm afraid I'm getting bad again - it's been so long, and I forgot what the brokenness feels like. I wish it had never stopped or I wish I could forget again.

To be loved is to be seen
And I never realized just how invisible I felt
Until you came along
And saw me in full color
I cannot tell you
The remedy to your emptiness,
But I can share with you
That of a treatment of mine.
It can be hearing of progress
On any front
In the forms of beautiful ideas
And new expressions,
The world of us humans.
Of newfound love
In many kinds of companionship
Whether by person or by animal,
Or even by plant.
Of new discovery
Which betters our understanding
About the fundamentals of the universe,
Like walking in the wild;
Cherishing all that is natural.

Being a humble observer
In the courts of law
Under honorable nature.

Just by being an animal.
What better manger is not a freer forest?
