Timeout
Just because I'm working on my mental health Doesn't mean I think I'm better than a person who chooses to stay unwell It just means I'm working on my internal dialog daily, and I'm not perfect, at the very least, well. I'm working on making myself content with knowing the past versions of myself For instance, Today, I had to...

We are forced to stay where thoughts echo; like children on "Timeout"! We huddle in our cozy corners, though no corner's cozy when imposed - left to lament our distancing and to "Think about" what we've done and cherish those taken for granted freedoms like a hug we didn't take or give when...

She stop mattering much this day----I'm not in the mood at this time----am I betraying the truth of how much she mean to me is the thoughts resting dead on my mind----we are miles apart in physical distance and the sentiments of our hearts----I feel she has less interest in our relationship than what I...
