A New Chapter

3 min read
I've finally gotten to the point in my life where I feel stable. Not emotionally stable, but stable in the fact that I can withstand anything. These past 5 years have been particularly rough for me. I have battled depression, anxiety, I have battled friendships and people, and most importantly, I have battled my own mind. However, I realize how strong I am. At only 16 years of living it feels as though I've had a lifetime of memories, a lifetime of pain, and a lifetime of suffering. Laughing, loving, crying, pain. Throughout all of these things I am thankful. Every day I am thankful for my true friends who have made themselves known, who supported me through my times of need. Who weren't only there for me when I was happy, but when I was falling apart. They helped me piece myself back together. I'm not entirely perfect, and I never will be. What is perfect is the strength I have. I've gone through so much that I know that whatever comes next, I can get through it. Nothing can be worse than what I've been through in my own right. There is no greater pain than fighting yourself, than mental damage. I'm proud of where I am, and I look forward to seeing how much I grow and what I have to offer in life. 

    For everyone who has hurt me, insulted me, helped me, supported me, and guided me; thank you. You have made me into who I am today and I am forever grateful. I've made friends, and I've lost friends throughout my journey. I'm putting all of my bad friendships behind me (if you ever read this, you know who you are. I wish you the best.) and looking forward. 

    I appreciate everything in my life and take a moment each and every day to be thankful. I'm moving forward in my life and leaving behind CPI and DeviantArt, but I leave with a heavy heart of happiness. Thank you for making me who I am. If I had never been online I never would have been able to completely be myself and never would have found relentless love for my true being.

Falling hope.

1 min read
And under the soft rustle of leaves you she just about hear how lonely she is; the things she so dearly miss. 
     And among those leaves falling away, is her hope to live another day.
You see her sad smile, how she shivers in the cold, but all she wants is for those lips blue and cold.  She laughs, she can fake for a while, but in the end she's in denial. 
    The cuts on her skin tingle from chill, but she doesn't mind. That's what gives her a thrill.
