POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
A Letter From Your Stable Self
I’m writing this
to remember
the time I’m in
right now
I don’t have
anxiety
or
a panic attack
because the world
isn’t
an evil place
and neither are
the people
in it
I’m not
worried
about the
rest of my life
because
what matters is
now
If I gain
weight
I can
lose it
again
If life
shows its
ugliest face
I can
reach out
for help
If I should
lose
a friend
I still got
my loved ones
if I should
lose
a loved one
I...

Soulmate
I read about you
like I read about
fictional characters
I fell in
love
with
I can only
imagine
how you
would be
in real life
what it
would be like
to meet you
how it would
feel
to fall in
love
with you
but you
do
live in
the same world
as me
somewhere
out there
and your
longing
for me
is the same
as my
longing
for you
and maybe
someday
I will
finally
put my arm
around
you
after all those
years of...

the things
that
kill me
are the most
precious
to have
around
they
fulfill
their purpose
unlike any
human being
that
kill me

An Instant
we
can’t
live ahead
yet we
can
summon
the past
we
can’t
start
a new
life
yet we
can
end it
the past
may be
your enemy
and the future
might be
too
but you still
got
this moment
to live for
as long
as it may
last
can’t
live ahead
yet we
can
summon
the past
we
can’t
start
a new
life
yet we
can
end it
the past
may be
your enemy
and the future
might be
too

got
this moment

Bless The Cracks
let’s raise our glasses
for
rejected love
bad memories
and the failures
from years ago
if not for them
we wouldn’t know
how to fix
the cracks
how to drag
one foot
in front of
the other
while our legs
hurt
like hell
and cherish
everything
that helped us
along
the way
bless
the bad luck
bless
our cracks
cause we learned
how to
walk
for
rejected love
bad memories
and the failures
from years ago
if not for them
we wouldn’t know
how to fix
the cracks
how to drag
one foot
in front of
the other
while our legs
hurt
like hell
and cherish
everything
that helped us
along
the way
bless
the bad luck
bless
our cracks
cause we learned
how to
walk

L.
you are
my place
without
madness
even with
all the
earthquakes
and
disasters
on the
inside
and
outside
you
feel like
the way
home
my place
without
madness
even with
all the
earthquakes
and
disasters
on the
inside
and
outside
you
feel like
the way
home

Thanks
there were people
in your life
who
saved you
from drowning
and you have to
thank them
for
doing everything
they could
there are others
who will
slap you
right
in the face
and tell you
to swim
and you’ll
have to
thank them
not just
for helping
you
but also
your
future self
and for
everything
that
could have
been
in your life
who
saved you
from drowning
and you have to
thank them
for
doing everything
they could
there are others
who will
slap you
right
in the face
and tell you
to swim
and you’ll
have to
thank them
not just
for helping
you
but also
your
future self
and for
everything
that
