Golden Chains

In this poem, I express the emptiness I feel despite being surrounded by wealth. The world outside is so free and vibrant, but I sit here trapped in "shadows made of gold," longing for true joy. The luxury around me feels like a beautiful cage, masking my deeper need for laughter, light, and a life without fear. I realize that happiness can't thrive where the spirit feels confined, and I'm torn between the comfort of this life and the yearning to break free. This inner conflict leaves me questioning if I have the courage to seek the freedom I crave.

The Light in the Dark (Completed)
Cover made by the amazing @mikeyspizzadope (go check them out they're cool) It's 3 A.M., and you can't sleep. Your heart feels like it might burst out of your chest. Your ears are ringing, echoing in your brain, and everything hurts so badly. Your vision is going blurry as you try to fight back the tears, and you're wondering why you even try anymore. At one point or another, most of us have experienced the feeling of worthlessness, shame, or guilt. We feel like we're at rock bottom, and it seems like nothing will ever get any better no matter how hard we try. One thing we do know for sure, though, is that where there is dark, there is bound to be light, no matter how small that speck may be. There's always hope, no matter how far out of reach it may seem. There's always light in the dark. TW/CW: mentions of anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts. "I know that even when things seem dark and at rock bottom, there's always hope. There's always a light at the end of the tunnel. As small as that little shaft of light may seem, it's not out of reach." - something a friend of mine once told me All of the poems in this book have been written by me.

existential crisis: wellness and health

"I hope you find the comfort you are looking for"
