Time Reveals

I’ve spent my days pondering
Over all the things I could or would do
But I always ended up drinking

I’ve tried to numb myself
In hopes of saving myself from the demons in my head
But I always ended up putting a heart on the shelf

A part of my soul chips away as time goes by
Bit by bit, chunk by chunk
‘Till there’s nothing left but a rusty heart and a faceless ghost

I’ve spent my days wondering
About all the things that could’ve been or would’ve been
And I always ended up hurting

And they say that time will heal,
but oh no darling, I’ve learned differently
As it goes by, time will reveal

Time reveals and it will spare nothing
Nothing
Nothing at all

It will reveal, yeah
It will reveal, yeah
Time will reveal
And you too, shall heal

The End of an Era

Well... this is it. The end of an era. This post was originally intended to contemplate what my life has become post my father's departure, but I figured why not put everything into one post? The running theme here is loss. So, with that in mind, let's continue. 2021 has been one helluva roller coaster ride to me or everyone for that matter. What I'd thought was gonna be a beginning toward a better future for me has turned out the exact opposite. As I'm typing this, I'm trying to muster the needed courage to push through. The past two weeks have been utter hell . Utter. Hell. Err... not just the past two weeks, actually. I think, looking back, everything seemed to be crumbling apart; my job was in peril, my father was facing Covid, and my mental condition was getting worse. Fast forward a couple of weeks, shit just hit the fan. Lost my father, lost my job, and I was more lifeless than ever. I was then hired at a company with half the starting pay from what I used to

Entry #16

On moving on: I think, my issue boils down to how I see her: Even to this day, I still feel like she’s the one, you know? Like, yeah I see a future with her. This has only happened once, and that’s with her. You can imagine the loss and pain of losing someone that you see a future with. Now, I know that she’s doing all she can to erase me, even going so far as to block me on Spotify. Yeah, fucking Spotify. Imagine someone going that far to erase someone from their life, but somehow it doesn’t really change the way I see her. I think I’m waiting for a ghost to come home. I think that’s why each time I wake up, I feel anxious. You know? The type of anxiety you get when you’re waiting for your package to arrive or something. Yeah, that pretty much sums it up for me. I know I should move on, my big brain keeps telling me to, but my idiot heart says, “Wait. Wait a little longer.” I don't think that it's gonna end well for me. Not at all. I’m an idiot. My pain is self-chosen.

Goddammit, Me

Each and every one of us has a different understanding of the concept of home. More often than not, home is with our family, if they’re still alive, that is. Although I could be wrong, and I know I’m wrong in certain cases. The phrase “home is where the heart is” itself is chock-full of mysteries. How can it not be? I mean, wh- what is home? What is heart? You gotta figure out which is which and there could be no telling as far as logic’s concerned. A lot of people, myself included, spend a great deal of time trying to find our place in the world. Our home. Why? I dunno, cause people want to belong, I suppose. Aside from a sense of purpose and approval, I guess people just want to feel like they belong. This can be awful if 1) they were born without family 2) their house/family just isn’t right. They can end up being worse off than where they started. Sad as it may sound, this is more common than what you may think. Check yourself; you might be a victim of this as well. Discontentment
