You see loneliness, it knows my name.. It calls when it pleases, A rude and unwelcome guest. Sometimes words are useless and they fail. How else can I tell you of that hollow feeling That sneaks up on me and echoes through my brain? I could be in a room filled with people, But I …

The Thing About Leaving Home..
My people, The most honest thing I can tell you about myself right now is that I have missed writing for you more than you have ever missed reading from me. The thing about inspiration is that it can desert you for days, weeks, months even and then like a long lost friend, out of …
Sometimes..
Sometimes. Sometimes I want to huff and puff and tear you down too. Sometimes I want to stand on the rooftops and yell to the world about this injustice. Sometimes I want to ask you; how dare you? How dare you do this to me, me??? Sometimes I want you to suffer like I have, …
The Thing About Pain..
My people. I have been away, I know. I literally haven't caught a breath in the last two months or so. Life has been moving at the speed of light and it's all I can do to catch up. From the first day I started this blog, I have left a piece of me in …
Somebody’s Somebody..
He was tired, so very tired. He'd been walking, it had been a long journey A lone walk, screaming into the void He tried to cry, but men don't cry they said. All he'd ever wanted was to love To be loved To not feel this painful loneliness Loneliness is a bad place to be …
Jesus’ 3D Glasses
Hey Guys!
So my brother started his blog! You can imagine my joy and pride
Reading his thoughts and relating so completely with them.
Please show him some love, read, and share with your loved ones,
Especially the teenagers in your life. Trust me, it’s worth reading.
Not just because he’s my sibling but because he has some brilliant things to say.

The world can say it is an illness or a disorder or whatnot, However, I know for a fact that the root cause of depression is self-occupation.

This Love, This Life…

Dear Mum..
