Some accomplishments feel like the beginning of a storm
A peaceful thing but then the realness hit
What comes after it?
Now it because something you wish to forget
A waste of time
Even a waste of money
Where do you store the memories of a useless achievement?
Something that most celebrate and worked hard to achieve
Frame it
But it just a reminder of a failure
That brings up sad memories
Worked too hard to throw it away
A reminder of a journey you persevered through
That part of your life don’t seem like it had any purpose for your life now
But maybe the purpose will be found later
Don’t regret starting over
That doesn't mean you were a failure
Just a reminder that you know how to pivot

Hey, I'm Emily! Thanks for reading. Hope you read something that inspires you. Or something that you find relatable.
The Devil's Cut
“Comrade, finally you’re awake.” The voice was smooth, sensual. A flickering incandescent bar was all that lit the white, sterile room. All Vladimir remembered was everything going black. He tried to move his arms and found them strapped to the gurney.

We've all been there....we work hard, achieve something and find later on that it's not worth the effort. Well said, Emily.
Well written, congrats
