Why are Niall Horan fans called Horan-dogs when we could be Horan-y? I mean... it's right there! how could he miss that?
I could achieve anything, but
I’m scared to begin.
There are insidious whispers
Lurking deep within,
And they speak their snide utterings,
What-ifs and maybes
And possible problem checklists
Will cause me to freeze.
I must flex my resilience,
Fight the fear within,
Because not one thing will happen
Until I begin!
The mornings after a rainy night,
Reminds me of all our crazy fights.
The way few droplets hold onto leaves,
I held us tying my pain in sheaves.
The sky looks empty without a cloud,
Reflecting me and the things you vowed.
And slowly the day gets bright in time,
I bethink how I left right in time.
The mornings after a rainy night,
Reminds me there's always space for light.

A piece of me is always missing, Like the last block of lego that I can never seem to find One empty space right in the center of the jigsaw puzzle. I'm not sure if I lost it along the way. I'm not sure if I'm yet to find it. But lately, the gap seems more blatant. I'm anxious that it's visible to the people around me. That when they look at me, they see half a person. It's almost like I'm mimicking a being While I'm on the quest for the missing elements.
Sometimes, everything is wholesome! Golden skies, daisies, moongazing, Dusty libraries where ghosts of dead poets linger, Tight hugs, acts that mean "I'm thinking of you.", I look at my picture with my friends, smiling ear to ear And the jigsaw puzzle is complete. (or it was, then.) Some memories in me are so perfect that, The missing lego piece starts to feel like an extra piece From the table, you're trying to put together. It works fine without it, and there's nowhere to put it.
Then I'm back in my bed, back in my head. And I cannot remember how to be a whole person again I eat chocolate until I'm nauseated Or I never draw the curtains open and let the light flow through. I want to live life to the fullest, I never want to be seen in public again, I want all-consuming love, I want to believe I'm worthy of it, I want to feel complete when I'm alone, I want someone to feel complete with.
I want and I want and I want… Socrates said, (Yes, I went there) "He who is not contented with what he has, would not be contented with what he would like to have." What about, She who is never content with who she is? What about me?

(hears a song lyric) this would make a great all-lower case fanfiction title
How will you remember me ?
Will you remember me
By the times I told you I loved you or by the times that I showed you the same?
Cause if it's former geez I'm sorry, I hope you reminisce the latter.
Will you remember me
When you see my favorite flower or by the scent of my favorite perfume?
If it's the former I left you a plant and the latter in a box among your clothes.
Will you remember me
By the silly fights i picked or by the number of times I apologized?
If it's former or the latter, maybe you should remember me by something else.
Will you remember me
By my imperfections, will you remember all of my flaws?
I hope it's both former and latter, cause those are the parts of me that loved you the most.
Will you remember me
When you play our videos or will you hear my voice as you read this?
If it's former you better save it forever, if it's later I wish it never fades.
Will you remember me
After a year, will you remember us after a decade?
I tried to leave back pieces of me, because I'm scared of you forgetting the latter.

SCRIBBLE AND SCRATCH
With a cup of tea, a pen, and my book
I sat to write at my favorite nook.
Head filled with voices trying to get out,
And a heart humming with tunes of doubt.
I scribble, and scratch then my words fade,
As I suppress the thoughts that make me afraid.
So I go back to the books that give me relief.
To find my answers within someone else's grief.
There are many problems within these books.
And in that world, solutions aren't mine to look
Within worn-out, annotated, and yellow pages,
I forget my fright as I did for ages.
Soon I'm drawn back to my nook
Holding on to empty pages of the notebook
I scribble, and scratch but the words don't fade
For I've let my thoughts out of its shade.
