...dark thoughts // they come in the light of day...

day 5a

day 5a

Feb 01, 2022

You can have it all
if you're willing to try
to be someone you're not
give in to society's call

turn over a new leaf
become that which you hate
consumed with self loathing
like waves battering a reef
ever-conscious of your grief

just deny yourself everything
then you will see
how quickly doors will open
when you're left with nothing

Following, I think, off a similar vein as the previous poem.

I don't remember what sort of headspace I was in while writing this or the previous one...

Huh.

Oh well. ㄟ( ▔, ▔ )ㄏ

A/N: As always, this is the raw, unedited version. Do be kind (❁´◡`❁)

Whatever happen to "march/walk to the beat of a different drummer?" It feels most people are resigned to "whatever". Hopefully there are still some who "dare to.." forge their own path, despite criticism and/or rebuke, that takes courage! I admire them.
