- cries to the universe

I have nothing else to give you, universe

You have taken it all from me

The beautiful stories crafted in my head

The words I have stringed together into poems

The visions of films I wanted to make one day

The smiles

The strength

You have run my plentiful waterfall of imagination and passion dry

I cannot complete the destiny you set out for me

I can't

I'm not strong enough

This life you have given me

I keep waiting for it to get better & it doesn't

And I do not have the strength to make it better

(Please, why me? What do you want from me? My soul is heavy with the destiny you have placed upon me and my heart is unfulfilled)
