Slowly falling apart, piece by piece, molecule by molecule, atom by atom. We are a generation of lost and damaged souls, waiting to be saved by another damaged soul. But thats the thing. That’s why we’re so damaged, so broken. We rely so much on others to make us feel alive, make us have a presence in this world that we forget about ourselves. We forget that the person who controls our lives are simply us. 

When we give our hearts, our minds, our whole being to others, we expect them to do the same. It’s naive and foolish, our expectations. We set our hopes high only to have them be kicked down. We let people in who twist, bruise, and pound our hearts with their own bare hands without any guilt. People who do not fully break us, but only continue to wound us as we continue to stand by them, waiting, hoping that they will change. 

But we have the power to change that. It has only been forgotten. 

For me, I’ve realized that by continuing to stand by people who consistently continue to harass and bruise and crush my heart on a daily basis, I am destroying myself. But the only person who can change that is me, by letting go and realizing that people do not change. Some are just meant to hurt you, and I’ve, for far too long, tolerated the pain. Maybe its time to find a new me. Maybe it’s time I let go, and truly find myself.

Ever since I’ve gone into high school. I have been losing a piece of my true identity every single day. I’ve now only continued to exist, not live. I want to live, I crave it. My thoughts, my mind, want a voice, want life. I no longer wish to merely exist, but to be alive and burn with passion and with life. 

Mental disorders are a prison, and though you can never truly escape from it, you can overpower it. I want that kind of power. 

-t.p.//my writing, my thoughts, my mind is now given a voice.

I think I’m pretty fucking stupid for letting you back in so easily like that. But that’s honestly no one’s fault but mine for thinking that maybe one day we’ll get another chance at this. After all, hope breeds all eternal misery.
