Do you want to feel the pain now,
in the form of overworked muscles and an overtaxed mind? Or...
would you rather feel the pain later in the form of regret?

Be in control of it.
Do not let it control you;
and, by it
I mean your mindset.

Somewhere along the way,
he transformed into the very thing he hated.
Like he fell from the clouds; however,
some would say what he had always hated was himself.

So much anger ..stems from guilt.

Sleeping without her feels like fatigue.

Conflict is meant to be overcome;
it is not meant to rule for too long,
if at all...

How does one sleep with a void in their soul?

Shame always seems to shower.
The onset is hardly ever subtle.

Find the moments where time collapses.
Find the places you have to trek outside of your head to get to.

I am shallow.
I am human, and something wicked swims
--close, like a shark-- underneath,
rippling my skin.  Be sharp, & you might see its fin.
I am dark, & some parts,
although locked, are still quite wretched
& can wreak havoc on the present.

If you're going to make mistakes
do so by trying new things,
not by making the same
one over and over again.
