No title needed
Nothing fills me with rage more than seeing my father sometimes, the fact his mental state has allowed him to completely forget all the times he hit me, or all the times he screamed until I cried so hard my eyes bled. I envy him, being able to forget; I'm not so lucky, all the scars and permanent injuries you've inflicted, they'll be there even after you're long gone.
Don't come into this house again, thinking I'm still the little boy you can hit because he can't stand up to you. I'm much bigger than you now, I can hit much harder than you ever could... and I promise, I'll make...

How? (Short but powerful)

How is a boy ever supposed to get over the girl even his mother fell in love with

Emotions
We were stupidly close for a year and a half
that entire time I only asked one thing from you
"please never leave me"
Well I'm all alone now
I hope you're doing okay...
please stay safe
that entire time I only asked one thing from you
"please never leave me"
Well I'm all alone now
I hope you're doing okay...

Written from work
Sitting in my office, crying.
People walking past and not a single one bats an eye;

art at its finest
so devoid of expression...
art at its finest

Glim (first submission)
It started out as me feeling a bit blue, wasn't much after we'd fully stopped talking, decided to go out for a drive nothing different. But I just kept driving, way out past jimboomba about 3 hours west. I noticed I'd been spending more time looking at the stars when driving than I had been the road, so I found a field my car could stop in and I got out, put a towel down and just looked at the stars. It was only a few days after the lunar cycle started so the view of the galaxy was spectacular, no city pollution no moon pollution nothing. I laid there just thinking and enjoying the view until...
