This Is What I Want My Life To Be...

I want someone to hug ape and tell me I’m appreciated and I’m not dramatic and I deserve this and that and I want someone to care

Painful truth, war never brought about anything good. Ever

— Mahmoud Darwish

I can find joy and peace is seemingly “boring” moments

the older i get, the more i need time & personal space to be as boring as possible

If someone would just whisk me away….

Everybody Knows

You could never feel my story

without giving me hell.

And you might not believe me

so I'm never gonna tell.

You've been there you've done that

so you know it doesn't last.

You don't care what's coming for you,

you're still stuck in the past.

You know happiness lasts,

like a train leaving track.

You'd never wanna fall

so you'd rather step back.

The fall is a wasteland

whose bottom is filled with grief.

You're hung up on the walls

of your own disbelief.

And the halls are empty

in your griefs disguise.

The echoes of your sorrow

don't bother any eyes.

So you dance fiercly on carpets

of the things you did wrong.

And sing this world a lullaby

you call your final song.

For when you stood by the corner

or hid under the bed.

For when you won't carry your miserable,

you'd rather play dead.

Now you take out your pencils

and set the books on fire.

And burn all their bookshelves

and fulfill your desire.

For knowledge is volatile,

it slips if not taken.

And not to be ignored

and never to be forsaken

Being called out for every little thing you do is quite exhausting
