the burning hatred
has become all I am inside

it is rooted so deep
that from it I can no longer hide

because the malice
is suffocating me like a vine

I can’t even remember
when was the last time

there was a memory
I could proudly call mine
I don't know when I became so angry.
What if I never become more than I am now?
If I have buried myself too deep into the ground?

My promises of the future are just an empty vow
My dreams a flicker of life, that will never be found

I swear that I really gave life a shot, and I tried
But it seems like my lifeline got twisted and tied

So, when the silence falls, let me whisper my final wish
Allow me to admit out loud that I’m ready to quit

And just pray with me, that it will be quick
Sometimes our best isn't good enough.

Someone once told me,
"You’re shining. Even if it doesn’t always feel that way."
I in fact, have been feeling that way.

I sit and think about all the pain and problems I've gone through.
Thinking before, "I'm so done. What am I gonna do.??"
I now say to myself "I am so strong for keeping up and fighting my hardest. "

"I'm
so
proud
of
you."
To that person, you know who you are. Thank you for your kind and meaningful words. They have helped me more than you know.

you reached out
on january 7th in 2024,
and i haven’t stopped
loving you since.

in music,
in poems,
in every sleepy
“goodnight, i love you.”

you are the quiet
i want to come home to.
my comfort,
my constant,
my boy.
When I sleep,
I no longer dream.
If I do dream,
It fades with the rising sun.
Unless it's one
Where you lay in my arms
Sleeping, because I was too late.

Who could forget such a dream?
I had another nightmare last night. I wish they'd stop.
