Praying to the ceiling hoping something will finally give.
No one can hear you because no one is listening.
No one has been listening this entire time.
The disappointment never seems to stop.
Life seems to go on.
Lean into the darkness.
Give into the void.
Take what you can from life.
Leave with no regrets.
Don't listen to the silence.
Don't give into the noise.
Find out if it's worth it.
Then sit back and enjoy.

Perfect Little Pirate
The rough, sodden rope bit into her fingers as she swung over the roiling water far below. Reaching out with the toe of her boot, she managed to catch hold of the rain-soaked railing of the ship- and promptly slipped. Throwing herself forward, she landed hard on the deck, slamming her elbows against the wood planks. The sharp yelp of pain quickly bubbled into a laugh, and she rolled onto her back, laughing up at the gray sky as a torrent of rain washed away the soot covering her skin.
