Perhaps I was never meant to be the hero of my story.
Heroes always die.
But I am still here
I can only wonder when it will be over.
Or if I am to be the tragic antagonist
In the story of another.
But one thing I can confirm
Is that heroes are never happy.
And regardless of whether I am
I certainly will meet a tragic end.
That's always how these things go.
I don't think my story was written with a happy ending in mind.
And thus one day
Just when things feel like they're finally
Finally going right for me.
I'm going to collapse again.
Maybe it is time for me to accept that things won't get better
and that they're only going to get worse from here.
