Favorite Quote:
Her heart was an open book with beautiful pages and detailed lettering. She wanted people to read her story in hopes that it would make them write their own. Instead, every person who came across the pages of her heart ripped out their favorite story and took it with them. They folded back pages and bent up corners. They signed their name with sloppy writing and with a simple 'goodbye'. This book is now tucked away in the darkest parts of her, because no one wants to read a tragic story with a bad ending.


When the dark seems to be getting darker

And the hole you are in seems to get deeper

When you cant run any farther

And then you stumble, and finally fall.

 

When you lie there on your face,

Tears streaming warm and wet.

You're down and out of the race,

And feeling nothing but regret.

 

You never signed up for this battle,

Didn't ask for any of this.

No matter how hard you try, it does not matter,

because you know you'll never win.

 

They ask you if you are okay, 

and you lie, like you have for so long.

but how can everything be alright,

when everything

                         is

                             all

                                  wrong?

"A writer must never be short of ideas."<br /> -Gabriel Agreste- (Fictional character- Miraculous)

This poem is really powerful and is true too...
Like how Ava Max sings, "We all need a soul to rely on
A shoulder to cry on
A friend through the highs and the lows"...
