--childhood--

I was always misunderstood.
My parents got divorced when I was five,
and I lived with my mother.
I only survivied because I was too young to understand.
I barely had any friends, except for my sister.
We never went anywhere without each other.
Almost like a team.
She had my back, and I had hers.
Growing up in the same place felt safe for me.
Until I moved away.

Middle school was always a burden.
I still hadn't made any friends
and going to school was hell for me.
I got picked on constantly
and every day felt cold,
regardless of the weather.
I wanted so badly to go back home.
So home is where I went, back to my hometown
to live my father & step-mother.

When I thought things couldn't get any worse, they did.
School was as horrible as ever, and I was miserable.
Don't get me wrong, the space was great.
I had my own room and everything.
But it wasn't even a month later that I realized
I'd rather be in a room with 4 other people
than have my own privacy.
The only thing that helped me survive?
An old friend who soon became a best friend.
Joshua Thomas Darling.

--early teen-years--

High school was okay for me.
But a lot of things had changed for me
My depression showed through my clothing & actions.
By freshman year, no one hardly talked to me at all.
It wasn't them, it was me.
I pushed away anyone who tried to get close.
Besides Josh, he was all that I had.
My relationship with my father had gotten harder to
maintain. We didn't agree on anything and had no similar interests.

The next year people started to notice a change in me.
I had grown more approachable and had a decent amount of friends.
As much as an average guy like me needed.
It's not that I had found true happiness,
I just learned to hide my depression.
Around that time was when I started to found out
who I really was.

Later that year, a friendship had ended.
Josh had taken everything I had to keep me from insanity.
But in the long run, I made another friend.
Casey Rapinchuk wasn't a common girl.
She was the type everyone avoided because of that sole purpose.
But together, with the sunshine, we survived.
But it all suddenly stopped.
The depression and the sunshine.

--late teen-years

I yo-yo'd all the way back south.
Junior year was starting and I had a clean slate.
No chalk dust or dirty erasers.
Almost brand new.
It was almost unbelievable to see how well-adjusted I had become.
Desperate me was ready to make nice.
My father was asking me what I wanted to do with my life.
I told him psychology and my future suddenly seemed so clear.
Would it be that easy to figure myself out?
No, but I wanted to so badly.

And out of no where, there she was.
Ashley Danielle Duby,
my first friend I'd made there.
She made me laugh at things that weren't funny.
She made me cry at things that weren't sad.
Everytime things got bad, she saved me.
Then, I met her. My other half.
Her name? You don't need to know.
But I loved her, I really did.
We sang country music in her car
and shared our cigarettes down city sidewalks.
I didn't need to be saved that time.
But I was anyway.

It seemed like only after a day, she was gone.
Ripped out from my heart and given to someone else.
But my image showed that I didn't dwell.
I moved on, and so did she.
A little too fast for my taste.
At least I still had my savior, I said.
That wasn't guaranteed either.
Shortly after 2 years, it was all gone.
I was stripped from everything.
My friends, my psyche, and my heart.
I remember saying to myself before I moved there
that things would never be the same.
Well, I wasn't wrong.

--present times--

Eighteen years of all of that and I'm still here.
I ended up leaving my father and moving back in with my mother.
Things aren't the same, but I've managed.
I've been through so many friendships and heartaches.
Spending my nights quixotic.
Reminiscing about everything I used to have.
But what I have now, I wouldn't trade for anything.
What do I have?
A lot more than what I've bargained for.
I lived through it all.

Now, I'm okay and living my life.
Sure, it could be better, but what else do I need; really?
I have friends, I have family, and I have love.
Everything that was taken away, I regained.
I don't need the perks I used to have.
I don't need the ego that I had portrayed.
It was all a hallucination.
I woke up and this is where I ended up.

No, I'm not broken.
My life is mending as I write this 3am pick-up.
Late at night, I don't cry.
I'm a writer, not a psychologist.
I still haven't figured myself out and I won't.
The funny thing is I don't really want to anymore.
I tried so hard the past eight years
and it's not that I gave up or anything.
My life just isn't empty.
