I never wanted to feel this way.

I always tried to do my best.

But for some it is never enough.

Even superman has his limits.

But in the end, no one cares.

Do I even get a call?

Do I receive a random text?

I question if I even matter.

No one misses me.

No one bothers to see how I am.

After enough time, even if they do,

Are they for real?

Or do they do it out of obligation?

It's difficult to figure out,

My heart has lost all trust.

I never asked to be this way.

I just want to go and disappear into the shadows.

It's where I feel the most comfortable.

Am I a glutton for punishment?

Or does the darkness give me solace from pain?

I've been writing for a little over a decade. My poems are inspired by personal experience. Stories are inspirational ideas from video games, anime and movies, so I do both fantasy/adventure as well as horror. I hope you enjoy my work.
