I
have changed
and will continue
to change
until you, and them,
and everyone
are unable to recognize me.
I am
unrecognizable,
a force of chaos,
instability,
mental anguish;
a spectrum of emotions and colors
too wide and complex to be
fully seen and comprehended
by any human eye and mind.
If you think you know me,
you are sadly mistaken;
I am no longer that person,
nor do I recognize that version of me,
no, not anymore.
A forcefield,
too much force,
too much impulsivity,
too much
yet never enough
simultaneously.
Played tug of war
and I pulled too hard,
causing you to let go;
then I let go
with cruel hands that only know
harm and errors,
with my deceitful fingers that only
spin lies as truth,
and I am caught up in the web
of my lost and forgotten identity.
I have
bled and bled,
vomited up my sickness,
got myself covered in bruises—
accidental? with intent?—
had my heart break and collapse and spasm
in this void in my chest;
self-destruction and self-sabotage,
those are my specialties,
my addiction that I want to quit
but I
relapse time and time again.
I am unrecognizable
to you, to them,
to myself;
I am unknowable;
the key is that
I am going through my very own
metamorphosis.

That is a poem I just wrote on the spot. No plan, no thoughts; I just wrote it. Simple as that.
I couldn't bear looking at anything related to this blog or anything Blogger/Blogspot for a long time, but I knew I couldn't permanently leave this place. At least not with a proper goodbye.
So I guess this to say I haven't forgotten this place. It still means a lot to me.
I am back.
