Up Taken up up up, On the whim of wayward winds. Carelessly floating. Down Pulled downwards harshly. Taken by a bitter gust. Thrashed towards firm ground. Crash Praying for mercy. From the apathetic winds. Words fall on deaf ears.

Train Wreck
On the right track, get off my back. Why can't you cut me some fucking slack? Off the rails, telling tale tales. About to crash, and everyone bails. My minds full of clutter, my hearts aflutter. Thrown and alone, I lay in the gutter.
Fast Lane
Flying by the seat of my pants. All legs, no dance. Running fast. Can it last??? Days go by, Speed or die. Line after line. No food all wine. Running low on cash. Here comes the crash... Stopping... Dropping... Rock bottomed out. Will it end? — No doubt.
Psychotic Episode
I’ve had many ups and downs. Some days I feel like I am slipping back into the void. When I say “void”, I am talking about the dark pit I’ve fallen into in the past. A place I haven’t been back to in years. I have visited this vile hellhole and gotten my toes wet, … Continue reading Psychotic Episode

You have to step back and laugh at how … Continue reading Laughing Through the Pain
Choices
Not Your Choice, Not Your Fault There are a lot of things in the world we cannot control. The seasons, the weather, the weekend (I am sure we wish we could). These things and many more can have some effect on our daily lives, if we allow them too. Then there are other things in … Continue reading Choices
Strife
Terror grips a young man's mind. A smile; a mask he hides behind. Darkness spreads out like roots, Joy is stamped out by another's boots. Marked as a "bad kid", A kettle; about to pop it's lid. Emotions blend into a mess. Anger = happiness. I fill the void with whatever I can. Danger and … Continue reading Strife
1,000 Thank You’s
I just wanted to write up a quick post. Honestly I woke up today not even wanting to write, but I saw this and it made me happy. I wrote a piece of flash fiction this morning, but I had to take a moment to write this up. Thank you to everyone for the support. … Continue reading 1,000 Thank You’s
Pain in my A..ddiction
Addiction I've written about my addiction, in the past. Addiction is something you carry with you for life. It has a real hold over you. It's not psychosomatic, it's a legitimate issue. Especially for us in the mental health community. It's easy to fall into the grips of drugs and especially alcohol when you're suffering … Continue reading Pain in my A..ddiction
