For things that I need to say but can’t Lakyn L. is my pen name

I was watching boy meets world the other day and Shawn had wrote a poem that Feeny read to the class.

I don’t think any poem has ever affected me as strongly as this one did.

I read that Rider Strong had wrote the poems himself so credit to that guy.

Anyways here it is

An Unpublished Manuscript of J.D. Salinger

by Rider Strong

It is possible to assassinate my heroes

with the scope of my individualism

However, by their own persistence to themselves

I believe that they have chosen me to pursue a self

What is literature

but the illumination of that which I would write?

Salinger speaks through me, to me

whispers, ‘Where to, little boy?’

My answer is the dogged pen to page

which lights consistently the pathway home

It is on that road

that I alone can trip my way back to myself.

One of the things that I admire about Fox Mulder is that he is the kind of guy who will walk into a room at work, full of people who think he's a joke, and lay out his theory that aliens or whatever monster are responsible for the case they are on. He knows he's most likely right, he knows he will be ridiculed by the whole group, and still does it.

It's an extreme example of going against group think and I think it's something admirable about him.

But I know you know who I am

I watched Next to Normal today and cried so here’s some fanart

[growingveins]

I was looking for a fanfiction with a specific trope

Realized none exist

So I reminded myself that no one can stop me from writing it

And no one will ever know it was me

Sometimes I write the poem,

shaping it like wet clay in my palms.

Other times, it writes me—

carving a secret into my skin,

quick as a whisper,

light as a breath I didn’t know I was holding.

Eroded

By: Lakyn L.

I want to be good.

I want to be kind,

to be gentle.

A flower drifting

on the purple ocean,

tilting a dance.

Winds howling

at the subtlety

of my footsteps.

These twisted vines

grounded in nature,

my nature.

My veins drip,

trailing my neck,

and staining unworn silk.

Iron is laced,

smeared

across the floor.

Do not bother,

enduring and surviving,

two indestructible forces.

I’m struggling with a lot of anxiety right now, and I honestly don’t really know what to do about it.

I’m in therapy, but I just don’t think it’s working for me. I’m not great at talking, and I forget everything the minute I step in their office.

Please give me tips I’m like drowning over here.

I’m ok, I’m just going through a rough patch.
