I told myself that all I needed was time to find happiness. And time delivered what it could: everything that can make you happy. Yet, here I am, hours after sun set, consumed by the guilt of still feeling lost in the depths of misery. But how could I tell them? In my mind, I see their confusion contort into contempt. And so I sit in the shadows of the past, jealous of reason.

In the shadows of the past
I told myself that all I needed was time to find happiness. And time delivered what it could: everything that can make you happy. Yet, here I am, hours after sun set, consumed by the guilt of still feeling lost in the depths of misery. But how could I tell them? In my mind, I see their confusion contort into contempt. And so I sit in the shadows of the past, jealous of reason.
