  • Stuck In The Void

    Stuck In The Void

    All the days and nights
    Fade away.


    Fade into each other,
    Into a haze.


    All the thoughts and feelings,
    All the pain.
    A whirlpool of emotion,
    Sucking me in.


    Stuck in the void again

  • Is it Better to Feel Numb?

    Is it Better to Feel Numb?

    Is it better to feel numb?
    Even just for a little while.
    To turn off from the sadness, you’ll know you will have to face again and again

    Or is feeling numb a sign that the sadness has become too much? and you have become used to feeling like this,

    Used to all the bullshit and the trauma, that feels never-ending.


    And being numb is a coping response to try and feel some peace,

    even if its short lived, even if its for one moment.

    One little sliver of peace amongst the chaos.

    One moment of floating instead of falling into the void of darkness that is my mind.

  • We Become One

    We Become One

    As the sun sets over the mountains and darkness becomes night,

    Our souls reset for another day.
    Our hearts settle.
    Our minds may race processing the day that is done.
    Our body lays to rest. 

    As the sun sets over the mountains and darkness becomes night,
    We become one with our true self.

  • Broken Chaos

    Broken Chaos

    Weary

    Hazy

    Conflicted.

    Damaged like a broken piece of china.

    A beautiful mistake.

    The aftermath of a cruel heartbreak.

    Sorrow

    Pain

    Chaos

    Always feeling lost and out of place.

  • Scars Linger For A Lifetime

    Scars Linger For A Lifetime

    Faded memories
    Faded time
    I can just remember when i used to call you mine.
    But you left a scar on me that i can not forget. A scar on me that i can not shake.

    All the emotions of love and happiness, pain and sorrow intertwined.

    How you made me feel is what still lingers here;
    You brought me up to pure bliss
    and pulled me down into the dark abyss.

    Our story is one that goes all around.

    We closed that chapter of our lives and started a new
    But you left me hanging in the end, with unanswered questions and an empty heart, a lonely bed.

    You still linger in my head.
    The scar never fading, and a new perspective on love, life and change.

  • 21st Century

    21st Century

    We are so connected,
    But disconnected simultaneously.
    We display a picture perfect life,
    But live in despair.
    Our reality a lonely one with no one really there.
    We judge our moments on whether or not they are instagram worthy,
    Not on the moment itself.
    We’ve lost the spirit and adventure and our basic humanity over everything else.
    We hide behind screens from the gift of life.
    Mainly worrying about wi-fi instead of the outside.

    Outside in nature, which we slowly kill.
    While parading on screen,
    Falsely committing to saving the world we live in.
