Shut out the world

I write to shut out the world.

I want to get lost in my own worlds 

Not thinking about life and what’s happening in the world right now.

I write to escape to a whole new world where I have control of everything.

And not a feeling of hopelessness.

I write to express myself to the world.

I write to shut out the world 

Cause right now it’s all kinda going to hell.

  • The hidden fight

    Everyday I fight a hidden fight.

    you wouldn't know it.

    I hide it,

    At school, 

    In class

    at any moment I could breakdown in a fit of tears 

    of pain

    anger

    because I have hearing loss.

  • Moonrise

    The sun sets. 

    A stunning watercolor effect paints the sky beautiful warm colors. 

    A last hurrah before disappearing over the horizon. 

    Then, 

    there is moonrise. 

  • Speechless

    I am speechless.

    All the bullshitting and lies 

    from our government.

    OUR government.

    They say that they are protecting us.

    That's not what I see,

    "Don't believe your eyes."
