Giving up
I know what it looks like when someone in my situation gives up.. I've seen it. The pressure sores, edema, staying in the chair for 24 hours, not bathing for weeks, infection.. it's how my frie...
Effort
I hate to break it to you But we've never been 100% of anything I don't know what that even meansAnd it was much too soon to know I can't give you 100% of what I have I haven't been 100% since I...
Overthinking
I overthink, constantly and always This will never change And so, I've thought and thought about all the ways and all the reasons why... All the red flags and all complications For why I...
These walls
What do you expect when the walls keep tightening?What do you expect when the walls start talking? What do you expect when no one else is listening? I can't keep it all together anymore And I'm ...
Fears
Take two... Dying alone in a hospital Never really letting go of the past Never really finding a peace within myself Realizing that B doesn't love me like she used to... Failing again in ...

For anyone who reads this on a regular basis, this should be the last time I carry on about this in any long-form fashion, but I need to see this laid out in front of me to get any kind of...
What Do You Want?
See? When I love, I love hard... It's not small, and it can happen quick. It burns white hot... And it wants to get inside of you. Inside of your heart, inside of your mind, inside of your so...
Letting Go
You know, when someone keeps telling you something over and over at some point you should really just fucking listen... That's it, that's all... I should have something else to write about her...
This is How You Lose Her
It starts by triggering her, unintentionally of course, but some damage was done anyway. And then she shuts you out again for the second time in about a month but this time it's not earth-s...
There are no more words
There's so many things I've written down here and I've deleted them all. I have no emotion left... Or whatever's there.. I don't want to share it I have no trust left.. or whatever's ther...
