if i knew the moon was

what you wanted

i would’ve tried until

my last breath to

get it for you

but i was chasing sunrises

and falling for everything

you would tell me when

the sun would set

i’ve never loved someone

as much you, but i wish

we never met

i can’t keep losing my

youth to such men

they make me never want

to love anyone again

Thank you @unmondefou for the tag.

Reading books, legal texts, articles, basically any written material that I find interesting.

Writing anything that comes to mind either from legal research or from self reflection and experience.

Texting and chatting virtually, human connection albeit online gives me a sense of belonging.

Being engaged in tasks that challenge my intellect or spurs on meaningful debate among like minded individuals.

Listening to music (or should I say Linkin Park and Imagine Dragons mostly).

education and it’s reward

Education brings consideration 

And needs a lot of concentration 

To build a strong foundation 

That leads to a destination 

Not just any destination 

But a destination 

That leads to a bright future and

Gives you a sense of humor 

So take it

Keep it 

Cherish it

Value it

And use it

While you you can

Because it’s not not promised 

To anyone who wastes it

the world is too big to

be so lonely, but maybe i was

destined for extreme melancholy

like people believe they are

destined for success

if i start to view my sadness

as such, do you think it will go away?

do you think i’ll be able to find

reasons that will make me want

to see another day?

my father told me that

any worthwhile pursuit will

never be easy but here i am

twenty two years into this life

without much to show for

and the thing is i don’t care for

a fruitful life or one that is full of

accolades that i’ll never

have a chance to comprehend

i just want my mind to be my friend

and if she can’t be that,

i need her to stop being my enemy

i don’t know how to tell her that

we don’t have to be constantly at war

i want her to know that there is more

more to this life and more

to my body than this

i know he doesn’t feel the same

emotions that i do when

i look at the moon

but if i wanted it

he would stop at nothing

to get it for me

isn’t it comforting?

to know that when we’re not together

the moon shines the same

in every place

even if it’s not at the same time

we all have the luck of witnessing

the moon in this life

i could never not be a child

of the night or the moon

i almost love her just

as much as i love you

it wouldn’t be a smart

idea to lick wounds

that are open,

but God knows that i’ll

try anything once if given

the opportunity

i think i love too hard, but not

i don’t think i’ve ever been loved

enough by someone who pledged

to do so

i’m unsure if i’m deserving of it

but i really wish to be

confessional // kira malibu

my mother recently pleaded with

me to never forget the good

times we shared when i was little

and i don’t think i can ever see

her again, but her father continues to

beg for my forgiveness on her behalf

i don’t think my mother is everything

to me but i know she’s at least half

half of all i may ever be

half of who i was taught not to become

half of myself that i struggle to love

i think of my mother and i remember

all of the dreams of mine that she crushed

i remember all of the parts of me that

she managed to ruin without a touch

the hour moved forward

but i am still stuck on what

was said, and i’ve been wondering

ever since if that was truly

what he meant or at worst,

what he felt

you cannot ask me to care

about time if you want me to

exist in his life

just like his words, it’s too awful

for me to ponder about

among all the things i cannot afford

time will always be the worst one

[kiramalibu]

there’s pieces of me

littered all over this city

my car wasn’t truth worthy

enough to get me many destinations

but there’s certain streets

that carried my car to

the places i needed to be

i’m just as contradictory as the

city of Los Angeles, but please

know that i’m working on trying

to truly say what i mean

all while keeping my conscious clean

it’s hard for me do so, but i should

be somewhat proud

i never saw myself making it past eighteen

“I suppose what I am trying

to say is that my loneliness

overwhelms me in ways

I refuse to understand.

I find it so difficult to make space

for others, but I want to be loved

so badly it feels pathetic, you know?

I don’t think that anyone knows me, really.

I am fearful of the day that

someone may want to.”

[kiramalibu]

my thoughts are just as

fragmented as my thoughts

i fear the future and

i don’t want to be known for

what i had to spend,

but there’s no equity in

the things that i’ve bought

there isn’t a piece of me

that my mind doesn’t taunt

my heart is hanging on life

support and all i can

offer are apologies

i just hope one day

my body can forgive me

you cannot hold onto

life so tightly,

doing so won’t ensure

that it won’t suffocate you

sometimes letting go

is the only way you can

liberate yourself

perhaps it’s the only way

you can survive in this world

loving my mother causes

me more pain than I can describe

but I hope she knows that

she’s always on my mind

one day we’ll get it right

if not anytime soon, then

I’ll wish for it in another life

my hands have callouses so old

that i fear they will remain permanent

perhaps it’s the only part of

my body that is,

isn’t that ironic?

i didn’t even look twelve when i was

that age, who’s to say that twenty two

is the appropriate time to have this much rage?

how do i still live with the thoughts

that occupy me every day

is something that i’ll never have

enough words to answer

but here i am existing

even though i swear my heart has been missing
