To Marisa,
Thank you for your caring nature
and for helping me when I need it.
You always go above and beyond.
You're so much more than your current role.
Your humor makes my mornings bright,
you're one of the few people I can trust.
You make me smile,
even when the morning is rough.
You make me happy,
even when I'm previously numb.
You make life bearable
when I'm fighting bad thoughts.
You are sweet,
particularly when I am struggling.
Sincerely,
Your Secret Admirer

I'm sick of feelings so I wrote more. I hope that method isn't counterproductive but it might be. Guess I'll wait and see.

Day 4 of Quitting
If this is how sobriety feels, maybe it’s better to go through life a little buzzed… this, along with other hits like, I want to kill myself, I wish I was dead, and I’m going to throw myself off a bridge have been the only thoughts on rotation these past few days. I promise myself that if, in a month, I still feel like this (‘this’ meaning despondent, full of rage, and simultaneously numb) I can go back to smoking. Until mid-February though? Nicotine is off the table.
