Come

No one wants to read you

Write about tragedy all day

No one wants to read the vacuum

No one cares about your misery

To cry over the world and her disasters 

endlessly

From your pit of despair

no my friend

That's not why we come here

We come for the sunshine

We come for the feeling

We come for the hope  

Of something better

Through someone else

... that is why we continue

that is why we come, again

and again despite the mess

it is why we will always return

hope

is why people will want to read you

of course, as a writer i feel like this is about the work i produce. but even if i wasnt a writer, the line: 'people will want to read you' would vibrate in my chest. we want to be read; to be understood. bu the world needs to know about your best days not just your worst. vulnerability doesnt mean just talking about your trauma, it's also about getting to know what makes you happy. 'We come for the sunshine.' its fantastic work. i vibe with this and feel encouraged.
