Freedom
Have you ever met someone who gives you freedom? Freedom to be yourself in your entirety Freedom to escape previous restrictions and convictions Freedom to stop listening to the distorted noise surrounding Freedom to explore your own mind Freedom to truly love yourself as a working progress Freedom to understand why you are who you … Continue reading Freedom
☥
The universe is causing suffering for me to learn a lesson I'm at an all time low preparing for a steep incline Every pit of depression hosting a map to happiness A fluorescent path of enlightenment Pushing through the pain in each set In each rep Proud as I know the hurt is necessary to … Continue reading ☥
Let’s Die Together
I don't want someone who has already lived their life. I need to live it with them. Share our bucket lists. That's love. Jump off cliffs together. Fly on private jets together.

12:40am
12:40 am and my eyes are fighting Eyelids are refused closing My frustration caused by the past Who has now become present Tormenting my attachment to the future Just as I clear my mind It is sucked into a vortex of unanswered questions Seeking closure all over again Confusion settles comfortably in its old seat … Continue reading 12:40am
