Anxiety can **** you.
A community can save you.
You save yourself when you ask for help.
Zack Ripley Feb 2022
I wonder how much would change
I wonder how much we could do
If we stopped trying to rewind time.
Would you be happier?
Would your soul be more whole?
Would you feel more or less in control?
The truth is, nothing good can come
From living in the past
In a world where nothing
is meant to last

Today, I'm conflicted:
I don't want to remember you
But I don't want to forget either.

The past is not the present
The present is not the future
Which means you can be
more than your past

Forgiveness will mean nothing
If you will not forgive yourself
Because it's okay if it's your fault.
Zack Ripley Dec 2021
Why am I still standing here
When there is nothing to stand for?
Because I hope someday there will be.

What I saw didn't change me
What I believed didn't change me
The people I let love me changed me.

Life doesn't apologize
Love won't apologize either
You shouldn't have to apologize.
Zack Ripley Oct 2021
We don't need to save the world
We don't need to save each other
We need to save ourselves from ourselves
Zack Ripley Oct 2021
If the rain fell like my tears,
I wonder if I would ever
See the sun, the sky, the moon again.
