space travel is boring

things i like, things i write, things i make, things i hate, anything i have to say

do every stupid thing that makes you feel alive. do every stupid thing to try to drive the dark away

my new dream career would be to write/illustrate children’s books, and begin my own greeting cards company. 

it’s embarrassing when you tell people your dream, and that dream is based on a talent you believe you possess, and you might not be as talented as your family hypes you up to be. 

keep writing, it keeps me sane. 

Without writing it seems

I lose part of myself

The part I keep hidden

From everyone else

The darkness and sadness

No one understands

Only my writing knows

Who I truly am

And at least when I cry

My writing knows why

Into my soul I can pry

No reason to lie

And I let everything go,

With a blink and a sigh.

 

Every winter is the same

The cold brings along the pain

I see nothing I can gain

Until the snow turns into rain.

 

Every year that passes by

No new thoughts behind my eye

No happiness that I can spy

The cold freezes up my mind.

He preaches to the Sun

Doesn’t understand its luminous ways

The world is cold and dark

Don’t waste your time.

 

Yet, when the moon comes out

He howls with the wolves

He screams into the darkness

Letting out pain.

 

Then, running down the way

His feet move faster than his mind

Thoughts left on the pavement

For cars to flatten and erase.

 

The clock reads three a.m.

When he returns to his hostile bed

Another battle just to sleep

To leave his evil mentality.

 

When he dreams, he is strong

No longer apprehensive of the people

The world is a less intimidating place

Where he doesn’t need medication to feel at ease.
