I miss your smile
The  way you made me feel
You, the invincible brother
Me, your faithful sidekick

Why is a question I have asked
Over and over again
It has been 9 years
Without you

So much you have missed
I think about you daily
Wishing you were here

I want to hear your laugh
I want you to come ruffle my hair

You were taken too soon
It is not fair that I am here, alone

I miss you,  Jimmy!
Experiencing lots of losses in my life right now and coming up on the anniversary of my brother's ******. Miss you, Jimmy! <3

An empty heart is a dangerous thing

Once my heart was full
Full of life
Full of hope
Full of desires

But then you came
You torn those away
Piece by piece
Until here I stand
Empty

Now without hope
I go through life
With no thoughts of those I hurt
Like you taught me
Use and Discard
I was a good pupil

An empty heart is a dangerous thing

Here I am again
Facing the same
Disappointments
Hurts, regrets.

And yet I thought this time would be different.

Stupid girl
Will you never learn?
You are unworthy.

And yet again my heart yearns
Pleading maybe this time.

I look around me
Everybody seems so comfortable
They know how to interact
They can talk easily with each other
They know how to treat each other.

Me, I stand here...stupid
Mute, afraid to speak
Everytime I think I have it figured out
I stumble and fail.

When did I miss the lesson on functioning in life?
Why is so hard for me to talk, interact?

Tired of failing
I am just gonna stand here
In the corner, mute
Don't mind me.

I
am  lost
struggling
emotionally
Life is more than
I can currently handle
Nobody understands
the inner workings
of my mind
hurting
tired
me

I am such a walking mess, do not know what to think, where to turn who can I trust, who should I trust, who is real, am I even real, how to make this all stop spinning and just make sense. You say you understand and I believe that you really do want to understand but  you do no get how my mind processes thoughts, emotions, frustrations..

I have struggled for too long, I do not know another way, I try to learn, to follow your examples, to try it your way but  my mind cannot get it.

I have tried and now I am body, mind, and soul depleted.

I can not sleep
I toss and turn night after night
I have gone 4 long days
Without sleep

Exhaustion racks my body
I am a zombie
So tired

Why is sleep eluding me
What fears are keeping me awake

Fears of being small
Fears of my father
No

These are not the fears of present
I fear of losing you
You have been mine for so long
Can I have a life without you
Am I strong enough

I fear not

The struggle is real these days.
Seems like every wagon
That DT encourages me to stay on
I keep falling off of.

Come on, Nita, get on
Join the No SI Wagon
Up I hop
And almost as quickly as I am on
I find myself barely staying there
Before you know it
Off I fall
To my
Demise.

Come on, Nita, get on
Join the Sober Wagon
Up I go
And it is the same story
Barely hanging out
Soon to come flying off.

Why can I not stay on?
Does not matter what the wagon is
I am a failure at staying on.
Falling off at the smallest frustrations.

Somebody out there
Share your secrets
How does this work?
What am I doing wrong?
