trost town

I write short stories and poems; I take requests too!

[trost-town]

there really isn’t a point in me posting a single thing

it doesn’t matter, and even if it did why should it be so gratifying?

all it does is break my heart

seeing my work go farther down the timeline

with not a single interaction

hehe

beep boop here’s a lil cartoon robot to brighten ur day

[trost-town]

this is so cute 😭

[trost-town]

I feel like I'm collapsing.

my lungs the dinosaur bones in the earth

being crushed by the skyscrapers of my anxiety.

I feel like I'm in a dark hole

with nowhere to go but farther down

but I'm afraid if I stay I'll drown

being pulled by this silent satan

that most would call everyday life.

[trost-town]

Thinking of a new change to my overall theme of things I post. Just not sure if I what I want to write, or if people would even like it. Whenever I put true effort into a short story nobody responds and I never know how to take it. Does anybody have any ideas? Is anybody even really there?

[trost-town]

how come it's always the stuff I don't spend time on that does really well like wha- where's the logic in that 😂😂😂

[trost-town]

The sky stays up and 

I stay down while

You keep on going about your day.

-

The world keeps turning but

Your heart is burning for

The love you feel for me.

-

So let's keep going on

And let's continue this song

Because I don’t understand

Please just grab my hand

-

As we dance to the beat and 

As we feel the heat

Of two lovers holding on for dear life

[trost-town]

the sun beating down on our skin

like your fists on his face

or his words in my mind

-

I love you but it’s getting harder

when you fix everything with your hands.

when will you use your words instead?

[trost-town]

the clocks continue

i fear they will never stop

my head’s a prison

PASS THIS ON.

The first transgender suicide hotline is now up and running in the U.S. You can reach Trans Lifeline at 877-565-8860.

your level of education means nothing if you never learned any compassion

[trost-town]

THIS!!!

[trost-town]

just drown it out.

these sounds don't have power

if you just make the other noises louder.

-

like the king has someone to whisper in his ear

I have these buzzes and ticks and whistles.

a symphony of anxiety and fear

an orchestra of my own personal missiles.

-

the conductor is my brain itself.

and when it gives the signal to stop

the band keeps going

and continues the song without me.

[trost-town]

how do we get past this disconnect?

it feels like you're slipping away.

everytime I try to fix it

you sent help, much to my dismay.

-

you and I aren't much different

in our needs and wants.

but you don't understand that

and you never give me a response.

-

I can't keep doing it like this.

cryptic messages and

notes passed between friends.

-

communication is your downfall

and jealousy your fatal flaw.

[trost-town]

how the hell am i expected to get out of here?

my anxiety holding me down,

getting stuck in the same place my greatest fear.

-

how the hell did i think i could do it?

everybody asking about my grades all the time,

it’s a big blow to my morale and i feel like shit.

-

ivy league, climb up the wall

don’t burn out, you might fall.

and everytime you feel yourself slipping

think of all their hopes you’re ripping.

[trost-town]

flowers wilting in the vase

a symbol of desperateness

and a slap in the face

to lovers of order.

[trost-town]

i can’t believe

that we made it this far without help i mean

if you were the earth would you be happy

with little monsters ruining 

your beautiful greenery?
