Went Digging

Went Digging

I was 18,lost, and I didn’t know where I was.

I Just left high school and a bad relationship with a person that I changed myself for.

I was going to college to work hard, graduate, and get a good paying job.

I thought that’s what I wanted to do, but knew that wasn’t the case

I had nagging feeling inside of me that I kept buried for years.

I had the shovel and buried it and faced reality

I went looking for myself and became a missing person to many

I lost friends

I lost connection with family

I worked and studied allot

I took a creative writing class in college

I was writing stories again

Again…

I played videos games, watched Films, enjoyed music, and art again

Again…

I saw my mother cry and stress over payments

I got 2 jobs and studied more

I didn’t enjoy it but did what was needed

I lost more friends, 1 died and was not invited to the funeral

I ask my dad for help and got the same responses

I had bills stacking

I became exhausted, insecure, and scared

I hit the bottom, removed the dirt, and there he was

Me
