Love Be Brave.

You should be gone beast, you should be long gone by now, after months of therapy you still tick on by. Without a flinch you creep up on me, derailing my hope & easy way to life, my hopelessly romantic attitude & my determination to fix this awful place. 

I just need a little more time, I just need a little more heart, I just need a little something from you (yet I can't lean on this, I can't hope for this, I can only try). 

*
If truth be told I've had a lot of trouble writing this somewhat final ( for now ) piece. 

Everything has changed for them, they see a different picture I've painted yet my friends call it me. A good friend told me that she was upset by the attitude I once came home with after some months of living in Berlin, and if truth be told upon reflection she was right. 

*
He told me he didn't want to love me. He told me he didn't want to have me as a boyfriend. He told me he didn't care about me, he (I suspect) was lying to himself. We met in the midst of my therapy, when the night was cold, full of anxiety and skeletons in the closet itching to crawl out, yet he prevailed. I distended myself from therapy in order to understand my life that once was before, unknowingly to me he took me away holding my hand. Patience is his virtue, yet my story became unravelled with despair, forgotten hope from my childhood & bittersweet conversations resulting in a fall out with my mother. 

"Determined" is what my therapist called me when we had our last appointment, for I did it, I cracked the egg and washed away the yoke and ultimately the hatred I held for myself, for my dad, for his family & my mother. All under the pressure of my own will, hard core determined mind & strength to finally understand it, also all with my boyfriend loving me quietly in the background. 

See, sometimes life takes hold and upsettingly enough it's most possibly the best thing for you upon reflection.

I just need a little more time,I just need a little more heart, I just need a little something from me. 

Changing with you're surroundings is natural, I've done that. I've always held myself high until I didn't. Stupid games took hold, people got upset & I found myself in a Lana Del Ray song, smoking away the life I created. 
Now skip a few months later, I'm back to me. No doubt about it, yet the friendships lost are something that hurts. The anxiety comes back, rushing up through my body until I'm numb. Simple dinners become hard, due to my judgmental state, yet leaning on him isn't an answer, yet that's the problem. 

I say one more year here, Christmas is coming, I'm home. I've got friends visiting, a rejoicing moment. 
Me, from home....me the one who's not here.
Yet while I look at myself I see I'm not the demon in the dark. 

*
It's not always easy, it's not always clear, you've got to fight through the midst, hoping you can follow the light. 
Surrounding yourself with good people is what matters, for without that you're stuck in the dark

Look At Me Now.

Since when did optimistic thinking become a pessimistic reality - when you actively seek out something in the tangible how do you manage to keep yourself positive in every negative situation that comes your way - I've come to think that the universe is fucking with me lately.  I have to laugh sometimes I truly do. Admiration for what is a chance of twisted faith or a pure mistake, either way you could look at it from two very distinctive perspectives but allowing the idea to wreak havoc in your mind is something you shouldn't entertain.  * It's hard to appreciate everything that happens to us, be it good or bad - yet these cosmic actions place our lives in the centre of our own despair, creating uproar & havoc, causing beautiful things to fall and harder reasons to reflect on - yet, after all this time, after everything that's caused pain causes just as much joy, love and appreciation for what you've got. Without grey clouds there is no silver lining in which to...

Troubled // Hunter

How do you reshape your crushed hopes, you're almost prefect reality and yourself when life throws you that curve ball ?  It's 50/50 at the moment and if I recheck my emails again I swear I'll go insane.  *  This morning I awoke from a 13 hour sleep, baffled at how the hell I slept so hard in the first place when my day wasn't strenuous to begin with, but on reflection, my days lately have been a constant upheaval of emotional planning, stress and anxiety.  I've chosen to ignore the person screaming inside my head saying "let's get the fuck out" for far too long now, in every sense I'm done now, my decision is just and should it happen it will be a bitter end to a beautiful life.  *  I've chased ambition before, I'm naturally a very driven person but, on reflection a step outside  yourself is possibly the worst decision you can make, regardless of the high and mental anguish that took hold, impactful decisions call for c...

Photos we forget.

I remember the breeze was cooling us down from the scorching sun above. Our feet ached because of the walk we done, yet our minds raced at the possibilities around us. It was my time to discover, my time to rest and ultimately my time to get away from it all. Everything slowly started to fall sort back home, the relationship with my family took a nose dive, trouble appeared in all shapes and forms and I couldn't manage the pressure, the feeling of failure and the sheer defeat in the process of guidance. It took me quite some time to build up the courage to actually slowly plan my escape, but I did. The months leading up to my departure were great, it almost seemed that life had slowly slotted itself back into place and an even better one at that- but the fragmented memories I have only tell the good times for we choose to ignore the bad. It wasn't a fairy tale, it was once love. Love the blossomed under the tall grass and under those duvets, the plastic card that h...
