So we've gone around again. Managed another spin. Stumbled when dizzy. Still made moments dancing. Surviving sometimes thriving. Daring to go around again.

Pain does everything it can to take your happiness, your sanity, your life away. Losing to it doesn’t make you a failure. It is a relentless, murderous beast, and it is not your fault if you cannot survive it - especially if the people who are supposed to be there to help you turn you away or join in on the attack. I will never fault someone for losing to their pain; they were a victim and likely deserved so much better. And I hope that, if I ever succumb to mine, I’ll be granted that same understanding and compassion. I’m still doing my best to fight and to survive for as long as I can. I don’t know if I’ll get better one day and win, or if it’ll only get worse and I’ll lose. I’m just holding on the best I can in this moment. And I hope that you are, too. How bout we hold on to each other and pray, that it’s enough to keep the beast at bay?

It’s back to school time around here and school supplies like notebooks are on sale super cheap so I recently got several. Opening one up, I was inspired by my school days and the sweetly awkward innocence of passing “do you like me?” notes in class as kids and the anxiety of waiting to see if they checked “yes” or “no"

The Cycle
Solitary is my condition
And I am stubborn in my ways
My dreams are of ambition
But I dwell inside the cage
Of ice that bars my frozen soul
From ever taking form
But there is hope on the horizon
Shelter from the storm
The earth swallows and spits me out
Into the asphodel meadow
Where I take a number to join the ranks
Of the flower ghetto
And for many days we will grow
But still feel incomplete
Yearning to be transformed
And bloom with the coming heat
Harsh rays of sunlight
Will peel my wretched, dirty skin
Revealing to me the beautiful creature
That I hide within
So with every abandoned fragment
I engage in cleansing
And each time this event occurs
I find I am ascending
Soon I'll reach the climax
And be arrested by the breeze
Who with her winds will send my petals
To a burial at sea
The chillest cold will wither
And cause my bones to weaken
And I will die to be reborn
Next cycle of the seasons
The Thought Compendium (26/40)
In celebration of 2000 followers!

I live
on a planet I don’t call home
so far away from the things I know
for in this glimpse of fantasy
I’ve made adventure my reality

My ears ring
and my throat stings
Something in my chest hurts
and my stomach is churning
My mind is filled with this noise
and my brain is stuck on the choice
Do I let you hear it
or scream in silence?

Your eyes. They shine like stars. Seems like I've spent most nights wondering where you are. My single wish come true. For you, I fell so hard. Love, your eyes. They shine like stars.
