Try your best today—that's enough. Some days you might just have to survive, and that's okay. You're getting through this one day at a time, one hour at a time, one minute at a time.

[reverie-quotes]

We the young ones have always suffered, inherited, had to know what it means to be left behind and left with shit and left with weight and left without you or any form of help or helpful policy to bridge what's between the abyss and anything even resembling justice and equality.

— Tommy Orange, Wandering Stars

A shadow of a doubt

That darkest corner of your heart,

The place you wish not simply forgotten but erased,

Where painful lies and shameful truths converge,

No matter how often you look,

The skeletons are still there,

For time can not rid you of your past,

Only make more of it,

And those that fear their shadow only look behind,

Embrace that part you wish killed,

Get your hands dirty and your conscience cleared,

Your white vest will be stained with blood,

But your heart may finally stop bleeding.

A lot will go wrong before everything goes right.

Keep moving forward.

I'm afraid of what I will let myself go through for love.

[minimalistquotes]

Better to admit you walked through the wrong door than spend your life in the wrong room.

[minimalistquotes]

The path isn’t a straight line; it’s a spiral. You continually come back to things you thought you understood and see deeper truths.

We sang screamo lullabies

to the dying streetlights

as if the night would stretch

into a fevered forever.

Our hands were entrenched

in one another, a lover's

antidepressant swallowed

with a kiss like oceans.

Her words skipped

from her mouth

into my brain and played

hopscotch in the chemicals

and I think they're still in there,

laughing,

even though she's gone

inside the punctuation

of the last poem

ever written.
