♩♫♪♬ music — euclid by sleep token

“from my grave to yours” is a mini poetry collection that i wrote after realizing that throughout my life, i have left pieces of me in every place i went to and in every person i met. sometimes for the right reasons and sometimes not. either way, i see it as a trail of graves that scream “i was here” and “i died here” and “i’m still here” all at once.

it’s been a while since i’ve written anything real. so much so that it started to feel like writing could no longer be the helpful coping mechanism / emotional outlet it always was for me. but then gentle happened, leaving me so raw, it brought tears to my eyes. looks like i still have some words left in me after all 🖤

this is for everyone who bottles up their feelings just a little too much and a little too often. this is for those who feel angry and resentful over never receiving any support when they dare ask for it. i see you. i love you. keep going.
