It takes STEP BY STEP, You don't have to RUSH, Just take your TIME, POSITIVITY IS A PLUS!!! Just go about it GRADUALLY, and Take it DAY BY DAY, If you keep this up then, You will be on your MERRY WAY!!! JUST TAKE THINGS SLOWLY, and IN DEGREES, Once you have ADJUSTED, you WILL FEEL AT EASE. It will be MELLOW and It will BE A BREEZE, You got it now, and YOU AIM TO PLEASE!!! BE COURAGEOUS and ENCOURAGE YOURSELF, YOU HAVE ONE BODY, and HEALTH IS WEALTH!!! JUST DON'T GIVE UP, THIS IS A SLOW PROGRESS, IF YOU CONTINUE LIKE THIS, YOU WILL ACHIEVE SUCCESS!!!! B.R. Date: 1/4/2025

How beautiful a smile can be Why ever did you choose me? A vast ocean of better men, yet you chose me, the sea The sea barely clear, yet all you hear Is a symphony that brings you to tears One you go to, with all doubts and fears, one that you call home, one you call “Here” You call yourself a cloud yet you shine over me Even in bad weather you gleam How could someone be so self conscious, when they are the reason I am a being Even now, barely a being I become by seeing you Gibberish to you now yes, but to the future, I couldn't be ever so closer One day I'll call out your name And you’ll turn around in tears I’d have learnt to walk, you’d never be the same Every fear you have now must feel pathetic in the future How free you must feel, when you look into my eyes How clear you head must be when you look into the skies and think of me

You’re going to linger in the back of my mind. How could you not? I loved you. Now that we are going our separate ways I can’t help but be happy and proud of you. You’re going places and I’m working on my **** You have the love of your life and I have mine, In my memories and heart. Yours so close and near to hold. Truly glad we are getting it where it needs. No more calls and texts from you, I hope. No more nicknames, Even though they were cute. No more saying I love you, Because we don’t need too. Not anymore

waking up
Who am I? What am I? It's been a while since I cried Am I a brain on top of a body? Just processor performing code? Well, who wrote the code? Who wrote it? It's been a while since I was I I'm not a brain, I have one I've got hardware put there by Someone else Who am I? I'm a computer running software I didn’t write I'm a soul interacting with a body, a brain Whose health I neglect on a reg What am I? I'm a decaying accumulation of skin And blood and bone and neurons I got neurons in my heart And that's a good place to start The heart is the mouthpiece of the soul My identity gets tied up in the whole Idea of my performance And my influence Like if I sing a song badly, my soul takes the hit And if I lead my partner astray, the whole of me is **** The whole of me is **** There's holes in me But who put them there? I combust in small increments My skin flies off in perfect circles They're fragments My heart, it's hiding behind these explosions Hiding behind them because it causes them Because my mouthpiece is expressing my hate My lack of love for myself Hate is just a word we put on the shelf It's like darkness and coldness Describing something through absence Darkness; the absence of light Coldness; the absence of heat If hate is the absence of love I might Just be the one who beats me Who defeats me Who carries my heart, my brain, the rest of me Tied around my neck on a string that I pull through Like my body is in captivity I'm privileged to honor this body that I didn’t make I'm greatly gifted a brain to maintain My heart, my body, my brain They shouldn't be strangling me They shouldn't be dragged through the dirt They should be a part of me I am a soul I have a mouthpiece My heart is my mouthpiece My brain is my hardware That rusts and which I expend God help me love me And Who I am And Who You are God, make it so apparent to me in my falling out That I am a part of the three-legged stool To Love You before all else To Love everyone else And to Love myself Help me see You accurately God help me God help this American switch culture I am not a machine that functions at the flip Of a switch I am a soul, a CVT, a cable that climbs up and down Depending on the speed of the wheels And decelerating is okay And (not but) accelerating is wonderful I do not go 60MPH because I flipped a switch I go 70MPH because I climb I climb God help me climb And to falter well And to suffer well Humble me in my faltering suffering

what hurts more? knowing that you lost two best friends or that the war between you all is never ending... what hurts more? the feeling of being alone or the fact that you have been alone for so long you have become used to it... I used to have suidical thoughts DAILY Can you imagine? Waking up, and wishing you hadn't. Does no one feel like I do? Am I a person filled with more emotions than others, is this some disease? Is this why I suffer from heart palpatations when I get anxiety? will my anxiety **** me one day? I am not sure. I have felt great pain in my chest before, and I have been to the emergency room, because I was too afraid of my own hands, and my wrists felt weak. They used to yell at me to slice them.. I thought I deserved to die. I wished I had died when I was hit by a drunk driver for a long time. She took my car, I lost my job, when I just wished it could have taken my life. It isn't so dark now, I wake up in the morning smiling. If it wasn't for my friends I know I wouldn't be alive today. They may never know how much they mean to me, but they are my heart, and the only reason I still try to love every day. I can't live for me, I couldn't live for him, so I live for them. Every day I get a step closer to who I want to be, and it's all thanks to my friends. I love you all so so much, thank you.

My friends are my life
I'm going to take it one step at a time Because I'm not going to pretend like I have it all figured out. In fact, I'm filled with doubt As to what the future holds Because I'm tired of listening to what I am told . Not because I'm rebellious but because like me, they don't know.
