Comparison

Expectations. We all have them. Sometimes, we live up to them. Sometimes, they live up to us.

But other times, they're very different to what we expect them to be.

These are two poems I wrote this year. The first one, I wrote at the start of the year, at the start of something I thought would last for quite a long time.

However, I was wrong.

The second one I wrote in October, very recently, at the end of that something I thought would last for a long time. I just found it interesting seeing how drastically my expectations changed.

TRIGGER WARNING

One of these poems contains references to depression and self harm, so please be careful.
