Just a black pen and paper. Top Story - May 2025.
Back in 2014... I don’t even want to recall that horrible state, but it was a part of me. I suffered from depression and mental trauma. I know it sounds strange to say that about a 6-year-old, but it is what it is. My family has always loved me dearly; of course, I’m the youngest. I’m Papa’s favorite child, his best friend. Mama? She’s always given me the kind of love that doesn’t even match the idea of a "middle child"; it’s love at its peak. As for my siblings, they’ve always been a little jealous of me… but never unkind. I’d still get treats and special attention, like any youngest child would.

Lifeless Life
A place where fading memories float A residence where I built my paper boat Rooms where the kid in me was BRIGHT Shouted into the pillow, when scared, would hide The plant that I watered every day The pots that I carved, made with clay Curtains would make a path to the MOON The windows reflected light, 'til it was noon The sky from the yard would tell it's MINE The stars at night would sing me a rhyme The universe was happy, and so was I Why didn't I know life ahead is a LIE?
