Challenge
Write about a necessary pain.
almas.
here’s to those unappreciated souls
that know just how heavy alone really is.
to those nights spent out of focus
blurred by shots of whiskey
chased with self-contempt.
to those days spent lost
in the labyrinth of one’s own thoughts
at times a blessing
at times a curse.
and to those legs that won’t stop running
from what we fear
from what we love
from everything.
because eventually
you will get tired of being numb.
you will get tired of doing
people and things you regret.
you will get tired of drowning in your own thoughts.
you will get tired of leaving.
and you will take a chance
or a few
or too many.
and you will get fucked
again
and start over from the top once more.
or
you won’t
and you will be ok.
for the first time
you will be ok.
