Silent Struggles
Xio 3d
I hate how people assume your life is easy just because you don't talk about the things you go through..
Xio 3d
I know everything happens for a reason but sometimes I wish I knew what that reason was.
Xio 3d
The mind replays what the heart can't delete.
Xio 3d
Crying silently all the time, if someone's to ask I'll say I'm fine, another day another lie, as I keep rethinking our last ever goodbye.

Running From Death

The Hole in the Sky
Xio Feb 26
A crack above, so thin, so wide, It calls, it pulls, it yawns inside.
The sky is wrong, the stars aren’t true—And now it’s reaching down for you.
Xio Feb 26
I move, it moves, it follows tight, It shifts, it sways, just out of sight.
But when I left, it stayed behind, And in its place, I’m trapped inside

Ghosted

They vanished fast, left me behind, A living ghost, just not the kind-
That haunts the halls and slams the door, but one that no one sees anymore.

Already Gone

I turned to flee, but froze instead, For where I stood, my body bled.
My breath was gone, my voice was too—And death just sighed, “I followed you.”

Whispering Shadows

Laughed the loudest through it all.

They cheered my rise,
they watched me burn,
Then found another,
Took their turn.

Ignore you when you need,
A lesson learned to late-

Let You Go
Xio Feb 12
I'll never forget you,
You'll always be at the back of my mind,
But as the days go by,
I can't help but think it's time,
You'll always be the first,
Even if your far gone from here,
Now finally I'll close my eyes,
And let go for the first time in years.

Nature Whispers
Xio Feb 10
The wind hums low through ancient trees,
The river carves with patient ease.

The sun spills light on hills so high,
As clouds drift soft across the sky.

In hush where wild things freely grow,
The earth still speaks—soft, sweet, and slow.

Friendship isn't about who you've known the longest, it's about the person who walked in your life, said "I'm here for you." And proved it.

Resilient
Xio Feb 2
Your skin is not paper so don't cut it, your neck is not a coat so don't hang it, your body is not a book so don't judge it, your heart is not a door so don't lock it, your life is not a movie, so don't end it.

Torn

A part of me wants an answer, but a part of me doesn't want to know,
A part of me wants to keep holding on, but a part of me wants to let go.

Scars of Time
Xio Jan 27

Smoking...
Xio Jan 26
Started with one every month,
Now, I've lost track of how many I've done,
A pleasure that comes with insufferable pain,
Told myself "Tomorrow" but it's always the same,

I've lost a war that I've been trying to win,
I feel trapped in a cycle I got myself stuck in,
A shadow that haunts me and doesn't even try to hide the lie,
It started with one pack, and now my lungs are starting to die...
