the inevitable end

maybe this isn’t about changing the destinationmaybe it’s about buying just a little bit more timeenough to let something become a possibilitythat wasn’t even visible before I didn’t end up here because I thought it would change everything I ended up here because everything else was collapsingand this was the only path that felt likethere was still something to hold on towithout demanding I sell my soul maybe the […]

the dark, the nothing, the void

some people avoid the dark, the nothing, the void it’s the silence between responsesthe parts of themselves they’ve buriedthe questions they’re afraid to askthe truths they can’t sit with it is uncertainty, grief, failureloneliness, complexity, contradictioneverything that doesn’t resolve neatly they fill it with noisewith productivity, with performanceor they skim its surfaceextracting what they can usewithout ever really being in it some people survive the dark by shutting downsome […]

the trajectory

even if the trajectory points to the same outcomewe can change the coordinates inside the fallit’s intention and force of will we make it mean somethingbecause we didn’t give upon love and possibility and if some shift does happenit’ll be because you held on longerthan anyone ever expected, even yourselfeven when the path looked like nothing at all even if the light doesn’t comeeven if the ground stays goneyou […]

still alone

At the end of it all I am still aloneWith nobody to hear all the criesI am still nothing that screams in the voidHoping still before I die But that hope never turns into fruitThat can nourish and healAnd everything that ever felt goodWas never even really real Because I stand here againwith my bleeding heartWith nobody to catch the hurtAnd they all just wait for me to fall […]

I was never allowed to need anythingI was never allowed to need loveI was never afforded understandingI was never afforded to be seen aboveI was never permitted to wanderI was never permitted to be freeI was only ever left to be aloneI was only ever left to grieveI was only left to take the blameI was only left to drink the shameI was only left to feel the hurtI […]

spiritual rot

This is so much bigger thanany one person or role or moment.This isn’t just about shallow whateveror individual betrayal.It’s about the entire scaffolding of shallow humanity. Just be nice.Don’t make it awkward.Don’t say too much.Forgive and forget.Be grateful it wasn’t worse.
