It seems

They’re happier than me, but does that mean I’m not living fully?

Do I need to look deeper and search farther than before?

Should I stop letting fear hold me back because I know in my soul I can do more if I just let go?

And stand up for what I want now, and all I have to do is start small with one thing and then let it grow.

And so the journey begins, and my future is more precise than I thought possible as I allow myself to expand and take it all in.

Poetry

Every time

Advertisements

You come around; it’s like the world should stop for you.

And do what you desire most so that you stay the center of attention.

Your walls are always up, making it seem like you do so much out of the kindness of your heart.

But you see your walls are made of glass, and I see all you hide behind them.

Like a curtain, I want to Rip down your walls and expose you for who you indeed are, not to humiliate you.

But to help you come out from the dark place you have been in too long and help you embrace the light so life could be a little more accessible for you.

And you can breathe again.

How do I

Cope with the truth

That things aren’t the way they should be and now I’m trapped with no hope in sight.

As the day goes by and things are moving faster than I expected and the path to freedom feels so far-fetched.

I feel like now I’m in this box and everything just keeps getting shook up and my emotions are all over the place with no relief insight.

I might end up becoming insane with no plan of coming back to the world of Sanity

Poetry

Through it

Advertisements

all we have been together for without you, I don’t think I could have made it through my darkest days.

Through it all, I don’t have to doubt if it will work out because I know I can face the things I can handle with you by my side.

Through it all, I have always felt your love and protection, and when things feel so out of my control, you save me and show me I am so much more, and I am worthy of all that you have given me.
