Scribbled Thoughts

23:44

Story plots that confused

years ago are now

relatable with time’s help.

Maturity changes views,

once scoffing at a character’s weakness

now seeing the internal struggle

and strength they have

when they choose

to carry on,

move on,

remember their mistakes

but still make

an effort to live.

23:43

Monitor your steps

and count the

progress of the day.

The longer you walk

the more your mind clears,

your mood lightens

and life seems easier,

within your grasp,

actually able

to make you happy.

23:42

Surgery is a privilege

for the skinny, a size eight;

only the thin

deserve to be healthy.

So go away,

lose some weight

and then we’ll consider

fixing your problem

to make your life

more bearable.

23:41

The endless cycle

of good intentions,

forcing your body to

its limit

then the guilt of

illness and losing

all the progress

you had accomplished.

23:40

My companiable ornament

who has touched my flesh

more than my favourite clothes.

Would you really betray me

by breaking and forcing

me to part with

a comfort I can no longer

feel nestled

near my heart?

23:39

Bunny butt of happiness,

twitching nose of content,

eyes full of love

and certainty

as you stroke his fur

and watch him

dissolve into

the sofa.

23:38

A mighty feeling

of belonging

is rare and to be

cherished.

Marvel at its power,

embrace it,

and never

let it leave.

Never grow lost

again.

23:37

Emergency packet

for the lazy,

because we don’t

want to encourage

you to breed

we will always

supply your

medicated needs.

23:36

Date night,

where we always

seem to choose

the task that

forces us in silence

and unable to

see the other,

enjoying the dark

and distraction

but still feeling

your hand

in mine.
