My Other Half
She’d a smile built for devastation. Her eyes reflected the worlds’ tragedies. Glue saturated her facade’s fractures.

Whispers of Resilience . Content Warning. AI-Generated.
The Echo of Tomorrow The night was long with winding roads, And I walked silently, lost in thoughts. Shadows murmured, doubts took flight,

Having a Proper Meal.
Skip breakfast, no questions asked, a routine I am accustomed to know and mask. I barely notice or see the time pass, early morning school, back to back all these years

Thursday 8:08
I'm having trouble sleeping and saying I love you That's not because the pillows are too soft or the heat is on, or the mattress is sinking in on your side / Not because I always sleep better with piano playing between my ears or my throat gets dry too often / Not because I can feel my heartbeat like temptation and no, breathing exercises don’t slow it down / Not because you don’t say it or show it or make me feel it / Not because the sun is creeping up behind our heads or the cold on my ribs is keeping me alive / I’m not sure I can tell you what you want to hear / I’m not sure I can hold you with my eyes and kiss you with my hands / I’m not sure I can overcome myself to find you next to it / My body / My body / My body / Hold me / still-ly / So I may drift into the rest / Of us / Where I don’t love you the way I want to / But the way you need to be loved / still-ly

The Silent Battle
In the quiet night, When the world feels light, A battle goes unseen, A war within, where thoughts have been. Not all scars show on skin,

Disciples of the Devil
In every gesture and face, there is a reference to the past, interconnections with the lost space. I wonder where existence lies

The fate of the cycle
It was a pleasure to burn with hatred towards him. He, the one who raised me, was the one I despised. His punches radiated with a familiar rhythm. His uncontrollable behaviour created patterns, which I studied intensely. I wanted to run away. Not from anyone, just him. And so I did. I ran until I was out of breath. But luckily, I found happiness. I found it away from him. I found it before the life in me slowly died. The scars that he left on me will never disappear, but hopefully they´ll fade. And if they fade, the predestined fate might change. The cycle might just die with me. Perhaps I'll stop the lineage, so there will be no chance for a rebound. And so I live in this world, my back breaking from the weight of the responsibility I carry. But once I can no longer use my back, I´ll just drag it. The cause is far greater than me, the burden too important to leave behind. So I will take this difficulty and carry it as long as I can and long after that. For I will bury it with me. I will not stop, until this bloodline ends and the suffering no longer prevails.

Tales of Torment: Friction Burns
By day, and by night my sweat runs cold, while my chest, burns hot, friction burns scar my heart‐ To no limit, my thoughts write chaos as my fortune‐

Life's Natural Erraticism
spin me a tale of blood and more me the crazy old hermit, as so often I am both metaphorical—literal As I sit and wonder what may have been

Just Don’t Feel Like It.
Just don't feel like it Is it depression? Maybe. Is it boredom? It could be. Is it fear? Possibly. Is it unmotivation?
