Mortality can be a curse
Just like how immortality can
We hear the stories of mythology
And the gods
And even stories of Thor and Loki
How immortality can be a curse as you watch everyone around you perish
But
Just like those gods
Mortality can be a curse for us humans as well
We have limited time
We never know when someone traumatic will happen
Constantly dealing with being broken
An...
Everyone has something
That means everything to them
That has sentimental value to them
Whether that be something physical
Or something they can’t touch
But no matter
Whatever it is that’s important to us
We can’t go without it
The treasures we collect along the way
Create our memories
And they truly complete who we are
🖤...
There only one person you can rely on
There’s only one person who is always with you
Always being patient with you
Through all of those hard ships
Hard times
Heart breaks
Doubting yourself
Through out all of those long nights
Crying your little heart away
One thing has stayed
And that was you
So
Be a little kinder to yourself
It will get easier
And it will get better
Because you have y...
He loved you
He loved all of you
All who ever caused him pain
You all took advantage of him
The person he once was
But that person is no more
Something awoke inside that boy
That you all just seemed to want to make suffer
He built himself back up
Piece by piece
Still looking to find every piece that you all shattered
But the person he has become
Will never be broke down
Will never be ta...
The heart can be a weapon
A very well known tool
A supporting factor
The perfect side kick
But it’s also our weak point
Our vulnerable spot
People see how kind and pure
Our heart has become
It scares them
That something can be that pure
So they attack it
They try and hurt it anyone they can
It’s a continuous cycle that will forever continue
But
We get used to it
We build those obsidian ...
It can be a nasty thing
Getting hurt so bad
So many times
But
Wanting to feel that rush again
To feel the warmth of the world
The urge to jump back in
That trap
That warm oasis
That feels like like home
But son,
Don’t fall for it
You’ve gone through it too many times
Don’t fall for that mirage again...
We never know what lives underneath those who live among us
We never know how someone can come to be
The pain
The suffering
The guilt
The hurt
We never know what goes on beneath anyone’s surface
So do yourself a favor
Be nice to anyone you can come across
Help that woman across the street
Give that lonely man company
Support that teenager that has been bullied
Motivate the girl who has ...
It is a two sided battle
We are constantly destroyed by the world
We are constantly destroyed by ourselves
But
It’s okay to be destroyed
It’s okay to be broken
It’s okay to be shattered
It’s okay to be cut open
Because everything magnificent
Every single war
Every single historic city
Every successful civilization
We come back stronger
We build ourselves back up
Coming back better than...
The underworld can be a nasty place
It originated from ancient mythology
But
If you really think about it
We all make ourselves our own underworld
If you truly think about it
Depression and self hate is our underworld
So
I guess what I’m trying to say is
Be the hades of your own underworld
Own all of that hate
All of that sadness
All of that self doubt
And rule over that world
Like you ...
