aching and shaking
my insides rant about
wanting to run
with nowhere to go
shall I run away
to where no one loves me at all?
or shall I just stay?
I would miss my brothers and mother
so much I would surely die
I think I will just stay
surely something will change
I can take some more
and then when I can't; I will go
My heart yearns to run and run
far away from this hell-hole
my wisdom tells me not the thing to do
stick it out here where I am needed so
telling my mommy did not help any
and yelling it out did nothing
so I held on til I could no more
and stood alone and so tall

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."

Ohh! This one's raw and real! That tug-of-war between running and staying—it’s so relatable. The strength to hold on, though? That’s powerful stuff. Bravo for capturing such depth!🥺✨
This ain't written with pen, it's written with pain 😩 Your work absolutely deserves to be shared in universities. Exceptional. <3
