Best Friend (Happy Birthday Thalia!)

It's been three years now 
Yet we've traveled thousands of miles along this road together 
We're two travelers on one path 
Not even the journey through cancer could separate us 

Even though that journey was painful 
We reached the top stronger than before 
Through all the days 
You were in the hospital 
Through all the days 
I'd stop by your house to check on you 
We faced the climb with resilience 
And continued on our way through the summits 

Without you, I'd be at rock bottom 
You came into my life 
And helped me reach the top 

Now you're my best friend 
Though there will be many more mountains to come 
That will never change 

No matter how many mountains will stand in our way 
You'll always be my best friend till the end of our journey.

  • peace is impossible

    I close the windows

    Lock the doors

    Turn off the lights

     

    I don’t ever want to leave this room.

    I am tired of drowning

    In a world

    That has never prepared me to swim.

    There are ten days left until the first day of my freshman year,

    And I am fearful.

     

    Fearful of drowning under the thrashing waves,

    For I have been taught to survive 

    but never to truly live.

  • Revival

    One day,

                 you will feel pain so excruciating it becomes abstruse. You will feel numb, detached from the world, lost in a void of darkness.
