each step takes me forward
and although the path may not be clear
I still keep moving with hope
that it I will get far away from here

layered more closely than I'd think
held together by tightly grasping fingers
afraid to let go, but gravity's doing its work
wrenching free that which I'd rather hold

an anguish I can't speak
these things seem so meaningless
I am here, but at a cost
it holds me hostage with its vice-like grip
unable to simply walk away
and instead I choose this path you've laid
knowing the damage it will cause

listless in my devotion
a contradiction in all that I am
energetic yet living largely
in a stasis that only I can

I am so exhausted by myself
I can't get enough sleep even when I try
I am so worthless, why even bother
these thoughts drive me to
find any answer that can explain this numbness
but nothing sticks the way it should
I am tired and I want this all to be over

I wanted to give you my life
instead I found a knife
and etched my pain into lines
the words that I could never say
the thoughts I hoped would go away

Your photography is always so good and often showcases the great beauty of the world, but your words are always so heartbreaking (IMHO). I very much hope you will find more happiness over time. <3
Thank you! I use the poetry as a way of letting out the emotions that tend to bottle. I feel like it is important to not keep a lid on pain because it seems to get worse when I do. I hope I don't distress you too much! I am generally ok enough though. :)

my attachment to this world feels not too strong
yet I'm still here, living on
how did I make it and not give up
I feel like I'm breaking, constantly not enough
and somehow, I am alive
what kind of lunacy allows me to survive

you'll know its lacking
the weight I carry on

we all struggle to find our place
but what happens when it never says
I have nowhere to call home
just a home that is not where I live
this roof over my head is breaking
the slow rot of existence
it eats away at all this
I have no home and I can't repair what I have

the perseverance
that I could only hope to desperately cling to
comes so naturally to you
how do you push forward through all the pain
it amazes me, but I know what I can't
and that is pursue a life that could last

help me, I find myself screaming
into the abyss that swallows me whole
nothing escapes
you can't hear me
I don't know what I said again
lost in this void

I'm tired of regretting all that I should have chased after
I hold all this remorse in my soul
leaving me feeling a constant loss
but how can I chase after something if I can't get up
I am struggling to crawl
