Darkness of hell.

Nightmares that never seem to end. 

Hatred for a world unwilling to give.

The pain of being destroyed piece by piece.

A system that is broken in every way.

I find peace in the realms of my creation because my world, my life, is slowly falling apart. 

And no matter what I do, there's no stopping it. 

I know I’m capable.

I know I have what it takes. 

I just can’t keep getting back up and brushing it off. 

I can’t keep living the way I am. 

I’m exhausted.

And I don’t have the control to change it. 

And that scares me. 

I don’t care what the world sees when they look at me. 

But the fact that I can’t look at myself and see something I like, that I can’t handle. 

The expectations I have for myself are self breaking. 

I tell myself that working harder will fix it all.

That I’ll do better next time, not because I believe it wasn't my best but because it wasn't good enough. 

Next time I’ll do better. Next time it'll be perfect. 

I break myself into pieces over singular mistakes. 

Tear myself apart over the smallest things. 

And you know what? 

I truly believe that working myself to death is the way to go. 

It's ridiculous, I know. 

I just can’t see another way.

Darkness of hell.

Nightmares that never seem to end. 

Hatred for a world unwilling to give.

It's a never ending cycle. 

But I'm still fighting. 

I will never stop fighting.

Souls is a collection of unique poems, written with purpose and with the intent of having a deeper meaning. I write these for myself, as a way to let go of unnecessary emotions so I don't have to carry around that weight. From personal experience, that weight will crush you eventually. And I want to share them with others in the hopes that someone else gains something from reading them. Some of these poems are dark, some are full of light. Some exist because I just had a bad day. Many were written because I felt that many people normalize important issues and shove them into the shadows in the attempts to ignore them instead of addressing them. That is why I have decided to publish them here. Please keep in mind that I work incredibly hard on my poems, especially these, allot goes into them, my time, my experiences, my heart and soul, and most of all, I am at my most vulnerable when I write them. So understand that this isn't someone writing to tell you because "just because that's what's right" or "that's how it is". This is someone writing these crying, letting go of so much pain without realizing they had been holding onto it for years on end. This is someone who writes from experience, never "just because".
So thank you for taking the time to read this, it means quite a bit.

Warning: These poems may contain dark themes (death, depression, self hate, etc) and mild to moderate swearing. Do not read if you are sensitive to either.

And a reminder: it's ok to need help, it's ok to feel like you've been through something too painful to think about. And it's ok to reach out for help when you need it. Never let anyone tell you otherwise.
