i am the nothing

I am the nothing that lives in your fearsI am the shame that lingers through the yearsI am the darkness that turns into blameI am the sorrow that forgets where to stayI am the emptiness that follows you wholeI am the suffering that keeps you coldI am the reckoning that keeps you freeI am the truth that made you turn from me I am forever when forever never stopsI […]

The system goes on and people still sleepwhile I sit here and just weepfor a life that was never meant to beand all the pain falls on meand I don’t know how long to staybecause even then it’s not my say.I am nothing and will never beanything other […]

no longer me

I was a spark that dared to stayAnd loved everything with no shameBut when the sky turned to grayThe love they had went astrayAnd when the love went to dieI was left with nothing but timeTime to feel the pain they leftAnd filled my soul with all regretThat regret was never mineBut i carried it in kindBecause i thought i needed to beThe one who absorbed so you don’t […]

i don’t know

I don’t know how to feelOr how to make anything realI dont know how to touchOr remember things I forgotI don’t know how to swoonWithout getting swept away too soonI don’t know to smileWithout getting covered by all the liesI don’t know how to kissOr pretend that everything is blissI don’t know how to loveWithout ever being able to leave the ground

comfort over courage

Because if they really heard you, like really let it in, they would have to do something. They would have to look at what they didn’t do or what they allowed or what they avoided. They would have to change and change is terrifying to people who have spent their lives learning how to numb, deflect, and survive by playing hot potato with discomfort. So when someone comes to […]

heartbreak and hurt

When someone you trusted shows thatthey didn’t integrate the pain you sharedIt makes you feel invisibleLike your suffering is just “feedback”Like your truth is optionalLike your presence doesn’t come with weight Because we live your life trying not to harm peopleBecause we careBecause we thought that was the agreementIf I tell you something hurts,you consciously try to not do it againand vice versa.

misty merakicat failing to hold - Misty Relos

universal delusion

If delusion is shared enough, it becomes culture. Structure. “Truth.” The universal delusion is: That we are separate. That we are isolated minds in separate bodies, competing for value, love, safety when in reality, we’re part of the same breath, the same ache, the same origin fractaled into billions of expressions. This delusion drives everything all the time. The belief that we must earn our place, that we can […]

hard

It’s hard to push through when nobody sees it like you doIt’s hard to continue when there is nobody else who believes youIt’s hard to do everything and still get misunderstoodIt’s hard to work on protecting and building something only for it to not mean anything at allIt’s hard to live in a world where nobody listens but keeps talking like they doIt’s hard to continue when you know […]

truth and threat

for people who have built their safety on silence, truth is violencefor people who mistake compliance for love, boundaries feel like betrayalfor those who have worn their masks so long they forgot it was armor, honesty feels like a threat
