I've Been Gone Too Long
I’ve been gone too long
Voids stare back at me
Enough is enough; set me free
Being in this body is tiring
Enough is enough
Every day feels the same
Never changing, always something holding me back.
Going every part of nowhere
Only seeing what I want to see
Nothing can change what’s already begun
Even though I want it to change.
Too many years wasted
Only to find the truth in hell
Over the hill, right in front of me
Long has the fight lingered inside of me
Only to be snuffed by the anger and rage
Never again, never again!
Great minds never cease.

Hello, my name is Anne-Marie. Welcome to my profile. I like to think of myself as a writer and advocate for mental health and invisible illnesses. Part of me struggles with my faith on a daily basis because of my sexual orientation. So a lot of my poetry is about coping with that and my health on a day-to-day basis. I don't define myself with my sexual orientation or my health struggles but they are a part of me; there's no denying that. I love to write dark science fiction about dystopic futuristic landscapes. I like to write strong female leads with a lot of emotion and feeling to them. I truly live, breathe, and enjoy writing. Thank you for reading this
