I may be a god. I may possess all this wit and smarts, humor, and charisma. I need time I do not have. I need to think clearly in a mind stuffed and cluttered. Life may be too much right now, but I need to be stronger. But I am a mere Atlas, sent down […]
Forgiveness.
I’m sorry For the things I did and didn’t do. For those that came searching but found only nothing. I’m sorry For those I let down for myself for tearing myself down and for those I have wronged those who wished to live. I’m sorry For that slammed locker for the venom I […]
