It warned me that life would be hard sometimes and that the tears keep flowing.
Like an unlimited River down my face when I’m too tired to say words.
And when I become too tired but still have so much to say that I have to get out.
That paper sometimes becomes not enough as I fill all the blank space with words of frustration and joy and whatever else I may feel.
Because sometimes I have so much to say and no one to say it to, the paper gets my words and my time.
Life can be so much more than I thought it could be, and sometimes it burns through me in a way that I’m energized to the max.
While other times it feels like I’m on my last battery life, and no matter how much I try to recharge, it feels like my wires are broken.
And I don’t know if I can do much but lay here and listen to song after song.
