I see me
Ready to face this new world alone.
And I see fear
Accompany the thoughts of the unknown.
The struggle
To discover the strength I had the whole time.
The challenge
To open my eyes when I’ve been so blind.
I see me,
And all of the mistakes I’ll ever make.
I feel it,
The pain of holding on to that regret.
It’s daunting
To think that I would never catch a break.
But I swear it,
These are times you don’t want to forget.

Reach out with a brave shout
Through the space in-between me.
The sunlight on the skyline,
You’ll make it, guaranteed.

I’ll answer the question that burns like midnight oil.
Am I the flower or am I the soil?
I hope this message finds me well.
You’ll be alright.
Your faults are not the end of me.
You ever wanna talk to your younger self and say you'll be ok?
we
we are like two intersecting bricks,
we may differ I  many ways,
But art carry our burdens togather

he made me
his little seed
and as such
it was then I became
unto his name
giving rise
I melted
overlapped
I pelted moonbeams
and gamma rays
fragments of
ice crystals
under his
fingernails
he tried to
shake off
as a dog does
when he’s
water-logged
and the beads
spread
until they’re
evaporated
he destroyed me
his little seed
before I grew
into a spore
and bore
my own

Still.

How do I explain
In words
My pain
It hurts
To contain
My feelings, In my head
From my eyes I bled
Face in red
I wish I was still,
And dead instead.

and i know
when winter takes over my soul,
your name will be the last word
my heart skips a beat for.

Empire
If I crash to the ground
Shattering like fine china
And lie broken on the street
Would you bother to notice?
Do you know me well enough
To know it was my own fault?
Would you still pick me up
And help glue me together?
