know what? F this world…
And now?
Saw you lurking just now- get a powerful hug @Fravaco no matter what you’re going through atm- sending you strength
@Fravaco hey I saw you mentioned writing a short story. I also dabble in fiction and love writing short stories and would be happy to review anything if you choose to post it.
Writing does help. For many, it’s the only way we connect with others and can express who we truly are. I feel Chester didn’t write much for the last album (from what I gather anyway). I know from experience, when you stop writing you are almost trying to conceal your inner self, because allowing anyone to see it when you’re at your most vulnerable is terrifying. If you can keep writing, it will break the silence and release some of the pain.
I’m overjoyed Mike continues to write his music. I was just listening to ‘A Place To Start’ last night and his flow of emotions in that song are beautiful to see. Some things you experience in life will never leave you, but talking/singing/writing about them will ensure they don’t stay inside and fester. Let the words fall out, and when they do find somewhere new to start again. There is nothing that can’t be fixed. Nothing that can’t heal…
“I’m tired of the fear that I can’t control this
I’m tired of feeling like every next step’s hopeless
I’m tired of being scared what I build might break apart
I don’t want to know the end
All I want is a place to start.”
It’s a exitline hard to top.
But it’s time to show your face again!
I agree @Fravaco
Where in the hell are you? Even disappeared on ig got used to seeing at least one non-shrek frank once in a while
I’m in a cube,
Looking for an open side,
Only to find myself
bouncing back and forth
in the dark.
I’m in a spiral,
Searching the way out,
Only to find myself
sliding deeper and deeper
into the dark.
I’m in a circle,
Trying to find the endless end,
Only to find myself
chasing myself again and again
in the dark.
Good to see you back man, we were wondering where you went.
I’m not quite back yet… There still stuff to clear out… I’ll explain later…
It’s just that last night I had another “heart attack-like” experience which made me realize that couldn’t just leave people questioning what’s going on…
I’m still here but that’s about it
Alive but not being able to enjoy it even for a bit…
But as said, I’ll explain more later…
Take your time, just don’t ghost us completely. lol
Won’t happen again… (I hope)
Well go hunt you down if your hopes aren’t reality eh bro
Really grateful and happy to see you here
Hang in there…missed you here
Hey
Well written man! And welcome back
Helloooo!!! Happy to see you here!
Lovely poetry, I love the use of objects as the various cages - almost like a puzzle you must solve to be free. Very poetic.
For those who wonder where I’ve been, maybe these pieces of lyrics can give you a clue…
“I been pushed, I been trapped
Drug myself through hell and back and
Fallen flat and had the balls to start it all again from scratch”
“I’ve been to the bottom now
And I may go back again”
But don’t worry… I’m better now…
Hey there - thought of you and what you’re doing- how you are and such … sending you strength and we are with you …
