There is freedom waiting for you on the breezes in the sky and you ask, "what if I fall?" but oh my dear, "what if you fly?"

False promises, False wishes on the stars above,
I'm tired of life I'm tired of love,
Can't write my agony in words, words no longer heal,
If only I could tell you how I feel,

These crumbled pages wet with my salty tears,
My heart crumpled with my insecurities, My fears,
No companion, no one offers help,
It's just my loneliness and my miserable self,

Poetry no longer heals, the agony is too much to feel,
My emotions I do no longer reveal,
All I get is self pity which further seals,
My heart...

I don't want to rise, I don't want to forget, or forgive,
I don't want to love, I don't want to live,
It comes rushing back and I feel s***,
I'm tired of feeling like, "this is it"

Faith is like learning to walk; you have to fall at first, but don't stay down. When in doubt, don't stop believing.

Favorite Quote:
"Writing, I think, is not apart from living. Writing is a kind of double living. The writer experiences everything twice. Once in reality and once in the mirror which waits always before or behind."
