I know it's been a while,
Dear Life,
Wow what can I even say?
We haven’t spoke in a while,
It seems like it’s been years.
Sometimes I wonder if I even want you.
I wonder that too much these days.
But I keep finding myself.
No-
Forcing myself.
To think of the dreams that have gotten me this far:
I want to make it better for those who come after me,
I want to make you shake in fear for once, Life.
I want you to hear me scream in agony,
And I want to hear you answer even louder.
Because we both deserve it.
We both know it.
I’m not in the right mindset for this right now,
But i needed to get that off my chest.
I know it sounds a little dramatic,
But that how these things go, I think.
Just a little dramatic,
With a dash of depression,
And a whole lot of hope, getting me through it.
Thank you for your time.
