I write because...

it helps mend my soul
and sow together the pieces i didn't know were broken.

it expresses my inner thoughts, worries, and fears
and relieves me from my hurt
so i can put up a smile for society
and laugh with the people
who laugh at me

it lets me be anyone other than myself

it passes the time
and makes me forget
yet feeds me
with stories from my fellow peers

The lights flicker out
and I'm left with darkness overwhelming me
Thoughts pounding my head
until I'm screaming and crying and laughing in pain

I see the reflection of myself
shatter in the broken glass
and my whole reality is
f
  a
     l
       l

apart.

I'm sick of staying alone
in an empty house
thinking empty thoughts.

A heart of gold she would
Never give it away carelessly
Especially in a world where
Real love seems so fake
In retrospect, she

is

precious

you never apologized
for hurting me
but i apologized a million times
for being upset about it.

Your furry body
Resting in between my thighs
Your purrs can heal souls
