Today I am tired of the day. I'm exhausted and I wish I wasn't awake. Another dark and gloomy wave. My hand on a cigarette, inhaling my thoughts away. I want the day to be silent, not overwhelming. I just lay here, it's funny......I am supposed to be on this bed to rest. But I'm not even close to resting. In fact I'm restless. Maybe tomorrow something will brighten my day. Maybe tomorrow I'll clean up my space, in this place, and then just Maybe find a dream to chase. Maybe tomorrow I won't drown in doubt and have another severe anxiety attack. Maybe tomorrow will not be as depressing as I am today.

Someone found me, I can't wait to be of company. Without a conversation I'm already feeling a bit lonely. Finders keepers, she didn't need to say that. But her heart did. The way she looks at me brought me to safety. I think I'm no longer the hide and seek champion. But hopefully wish to express how happy I've been found.

People say they don't have enough.  I've learned how to make the best of what I have. I am known for losing and winning followed by more losing. But I'm surrounded by good friends and I have a strong sibling bond. What more can I really ask for. I do get scared sometimes but that is the way of adult hood. I can't say that I am happy with some choices I've made in the past, but everyone has those moments. I am going to be working in a whole new level of change. I'm scared but yet intrigued. It's not far from where I live and it's dayshift. I'd say that's a win, but I hope I last longer than a few months. I'm so tired of starting over. But that's what makes my life a bit more exciting. A new job, hopefully a decent career. For that I will hopefully no longer live in fear but for the most important part....my new chapter.

I can't help it. I can't compare it. I don't want to lose it. They say the bigger you are, the harder you fall. I'm beginning to believe it's the same thing for love. Like, the bigger your heart is..... the harder I fall. I'm hard to love, but I love too hard. Harder than most. People preach love and loyalty, but they also preach one night stands and a month to month worth of content or a subscription. I can't say that I'm the one nor anyone's only. But if I may.... will someone.....the right one change that?

With the amount of regret
The amount of guilt
The amount of impulse
All the lies, truth, cries, screams, fails, success, depression, anger, silence, violence, hell even LOVE!
Took a lot of battles and I'd given innocence trauma scars.... just to learn how to be more gentle. I've learned to appreciate more, but my walls will be twice as strong. I'm pretty good and understanding the misunderstood. But it's a shame that I misunderstood the ones who've **** near killed my kindness.

Voice wasn't loud enough, I'm going to have to remember you and us longer than your existence. With my feelings there has been a disturbance. So close to asking the doc for a substance. I'm not sleeping, I'm hardly eating, but hey atleast my hearts still beating. But depression feeds off my tears for your smile. I don't think I can ever smile the way you made me smile. My mama told me to be careful and  to be safe. Her honesty shocked me.... do I really give off the suicidal vibes? I've even been told my smile was just as broken as my heart is. Ever since then it's been a lot easier to isolate. Here's the real question.... do I need help? No that's not it.... who's willing to stay?

Darling you're not okay, you avoid me all day. You're trying your best, but you avoid rest. Now your veins are filled with regret. Babe you just need help being sober. Life isn't over. If I can survive so can you. I'll help you through. We only got ourselves to lose. The real ones stay, their words not mine but it's part of dark and gray. I'll be there for you everyday. Help you avoid another wave. Like a hand saying goodbye I'll be the first to greet you. That's just what I'd do. You've got a lot to lose. Your life matters and it also matters to me. You're not losing me, thats not whats meant to be. Darling I'll stay with you through your fix, I'll fight til you're sober. Your life isn't over. I cross my heart and hope to die. But this reality and pain don't lie. We fight to survive! But babe you'll be alright. I'll be here for you life and the afterlife.  Darling it won't be alright, but you'll do just fine. Pain demands to be felt. But for you I'll be your stitches, I'll fight off the temptations to be dead in ditches. Just like the world turning in you, I'll rotate nothing more than love. Hey love, you're more than enough.
