Escape?
The urge to run
Is confronted by
The will to stay
Strong
Stronger
Breaking.
Becomes mending
Accepting
Becomes healing
After the finish line
Comes

Your worries
Bad company
Stressful events
Escape
Thoughts
Company

Escape
Flee
Hide
Away
–the course of anxiety–
N° 26
Was I inspired
Or am I just imitating
Is this something I’m really good at
Or am I just following a trend
Do my words mean anything to others
Or are they just stupid
–there’s nothing more stressful than self-doubt–
N° 25
Sometimes
Life teaches you the same lesson
Over and over
Again
In various different forms
When will you decide
To finally learn from it?
–reminder–
What is something you’ve been taught a million times but still struggle to understand?
N° 24
How it ends up being
Is out of your knowing
But it’s not
Out of your doing
N° 23
Most of my poems
I write on train rides.
Maybe I need
The feeling
Of being on my way
The feeling
Of moving towards something
The ‘in between’
To write
When do you write? Do certain places or feelings make your creativity flow or do you just start to write anywhere and anytime at all? I would love to hear that, let me know in the comments if you like!
N° 22
Aiming for something
That doesn’t even exist
Is a total waist of time.
Why are we unable
To stop
Reaching for perfection then?
N° 18
Do you feel worthy?
Loved?
Sometimes I don’t.
However, that’s not because
I’m not worthy
Or loved
But because I make myself believe
I am not.
I judge everything I do
Everything I say
Even all of my thoughts.
But in the end
To be worthy and truly loved
Doesn’t depend on any condition.
N° 17
It’s like taking a deep breath
Trying again
Starting over
Wiping the board clean
to write something new
Like spring.
What kinds of flowers
will arise from this?
-fresh start-
N° 16
How were we so close?
I can’t even remember the state
Before the awkwardness
Vs.
I still dream of you
And wake up feeling confused
Because I’m only me now
–mending takes longer than breaking-
