Ode to the Broken…

Doesn’t dying sound like such a delight

No longer trying to keep up the fight

I wouldn’t be lying if I said it isn’t right

But I’m smiling at the thought of an endless night

I won’t pretend

I long for this to end

I’ve done made this bed

I won’t lay in it just yet

Gotta get outta my head

Let it all go without regret

I won’t pretend

I still need my friends

Yesterday, I gave it all away

For the simple reason I fear to say

I just long to lay by your side and hide

Away from the pleasures and pans of this life

I won’t pretend

I just want to start again

To all the tears I can’t never cry

To all the fears the quietly subside

To all the years I’ve been living a lie

To all the things I’ve tried to hide

I won’t pretend

I have nothing left to defend

I’ve been living life like an addict

Now I’m feeling like I want to kick the habit

I ventured down the hole never finding the rabbit

I’ll vacate this space for the next to inhabit

I won’t pretend

You can’t be broken if you never bend

[the-concrete-sage]

Never fear that others will disappear. Fear loosing yourself trying to keep them near…

Those that are meant to be around you will always surround you with love, respect, and authenticity.

Please Be Kind to Youself 💜

Breathe with me...

Waoh! Pull up!

Slow down

You're over thinking

Find ground

Take a breath

Relax your jaw

Feel the wind in your face

Feel your feet on the floor

Take your time

Just unwind

Be kind to yourself

Have peace of mind

And as you come into your own

When you find a space to call home

Let go of the chains

You're never truly alone

Remember This…

The devil doesn’t attack those with nothing of value just as a thief doesn’t break into a home with nothing worth stealing

[the-concrete-sage]

This is my dream…

Some day I hope I meet somebody who is as shiny as me so together we can both unite our light and shine thrice as bright and deeply while seeing each other clearly

[the-concrete-sage]

I Can’t Breathe…

How can you love me

It feels impossible

But when I’m around you

I feel so unstoppable

Why can’t I believe

That you actually care

When you’re not around

I see you everywhere

Can this really be true

That you see something in me

Something so alien to me

That I just can’t see

And not matter how I try

No matter what you say

I just struggle to believe

The precious things you say

I want to believe

That you’ll never leave

I want to see

What it is you see in me

Please…

don’t leave

Because without you

I can’t breathe

I feel the absence

Without your presence

And in my defence

Your love doesn’t make sense

I let my guard down

When you came around

Because what you give

Is just so profound

[the-concrete-sage]

So this is what done feels like…

If thoughts where weapons then I’d obliterate a thoughts suns

Your words are utterly pointless due to having no substance

This current state of affairs in mind heavily leans upon the black

Held back by a simple thread with a head poised to attack

Fuck this physical realm of choice and further disappointments

Leave me be to sequester in the confines of my self resentments

Longing to end it all yet force to reenact the very fucking beginning

I never signed up for this contentious excuse we call existing

[the-concrete-sage]

Peeled yet another layer back only to discover more trauma buried beneath my black…

[the-concrete-sage]

I saw you smile for but a second and it lit up my heart. Knowing there’s a thing like that in you is a light to my eternal dark…

[the-concrete-sage]

Unfriending you felt like a small death… but now I feel free to breathe once again.

[the-concrete-sage]

An anxiety fuelled mind dump that began dark yet somehow got me breathing again

[the-concrete-sage]

Whenever we’re transfixed on what that celeb wore… know your attention is needed elsewhere within the world

[the-concrete-sage]

If I'm being true then I wish I could simply unknow you...

[the-concrete-sage]

Reblog if you think it’s okay to platonically say “I Love You” to your friends

[the-concrete-sage]

Mending that which is broken…

This soul connection ended in rejection and while I am utterly broken, I will not allow myself to feel the self loathing that I so desperately want to put myself through… in this moment and those that follow I must remember to be nothing but kind to myself

[the-concrete-sage]

Be aware the people you lend your power to... If you're not careful they may use it against you...
