Begin Again.

Thoughts at the end of another day

11
Begin Again.

When light and dark are indistinguishable,

you just keep living to keep living,

and dream and memory unidentifable.

Where am I?

Who am I?

Is this reality? My reality?


Told myself I have to do it alone.

No one else has let me know

it's safe to disclose.

These deep-seeded hurts

are too much to let go,

but too much to hold.

My shoulders aren't built for this weight.


Highs and lows

every day, every day.

I keep moving because it's all

I know

there's a light at the end,

just around the next bend.


Let me down slow

This reaity could be more

than I can accept right now.

Search, struggle, find,

fall, get up, rewind.


Back to the same old,

new year same mold.

But something tells me there's

still some gold

among this glitter, flicker and fold

another page, another year.

Another memory hard to bear.


But progress, regress, and progress,

two steps forward, only one back.


As my mind spills on the page

I'll still rage,

forgive, forget.

Doubt, remit, submit.

And I'll move on.

Ready to begin.

Again.

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

1. The Christmas decorations

I am that person who will decorate directly after Thanksgiving is over. This year, my roommates and I put the tree up in our apartment before we even left for Thanksgiving break. It is a great stress reliever for me to just sit in my living room and work on the huge amount of work I have before the semester is over.

Mistakes are something we all make, no matter how old we get. Most of the time, the mistakes we made are little and sometimes due to something out of our control. Yet, there are mistakes that are bigger than others. Personally, I have mistakes that I wish I could go back and undo. Here they are:
