on your twenty second year of life [may 1st 2020]

welcome to another glorious year of your life,
one that i hope brings you your aladdin wishes.
but not ours.
we closed in october, at the capitol.
and i was sorrowful for truly the first time, in a while,
it stung. a lot.
but it grew on me,
like the moss that has grown on the memories of the people i left behind.
so let's not disturb this newly found peace of ours,
evoking our misplaced and half-hearted thoughts.
because it's taken me so long to get here.
to find peace once more in forging a life without you.
you are no longer my favourite staple,
but i'll always be the one that roots for you the most.

welcome back, forgotten misft.

hi there,

its been a while. when i stopped writing on here, i stopped writing in general and i lost my way. but i think i'm back now. i hope i'm back.

i finished my final year at leicester on monday 18th may 2020. by that i mean, i submitted my last essay and slept for more than a while. it felt good. it felt needed. but when i woke up, i was back to the old me. anxiety-driven. with even more insomnia than before. but being here, writing here feels good. it feels like the old me. and i'm glad to see her again.
