It's hard isn't it?
I yearn for the past,
try to recreate a feeling that's long gone
but the thing is,
once it has passed,
it's as tangible as the memory once was.
So now I am stuck.
My scream sounds in all directions
but it's not as loud as the echo moving farther away from me.
I run backwards trying to reach for something
that is running away from me just as fast.
It's like I've disconnected from what could happen
just so I could chase whats already past.
I don't know why I can't just live now.
but i'm so focused on recreating something from then
that I miss the new things I've already made.
and that is how you waste a life.

I am like fully convinced now that nobody understands these and that I sound crazy and I'm gonna cringe at myself in the near future
