pieces of my puzzle are aligning
trauma and enlightenment go well together
it seems as though once you've hit rock bottom
the very top feels like heaven
a walking contradiction
how do you go from wanting to die
to living your life with authenticity
pieces fitting in shapes never seen before
pieces shifting sizes finishing the next assignment
a life on hold
holds very little to me
finishing my next task is today
but what is for tomorrow?
craving more isn't selfish
it's fulfilling
questions make me contemplative
unable to sleep at night
thoughts running for more
the adrenaline keeping me alive
pieces of my puzzle can break apart
pieces deceive me and don't actually fit
it is a lesson to look more closely
a piece has appeared
it's unclear where it goes
where it starts
where it ends
it will belong in due time

hello, it has been a long while since I published anything publicly. I've made one or two works this whole year in private but not a whole lot. poetry is relieving for me when I fall into depressive states not so much when I'm stable. But I am starting a new chapter in my life.
