Our dreams, my one true love.
Whether they are spoken, or slept- they are sent from above.
In our subconscious minds, what we desire- this is the one thing that ignites internal fire.
Our dreams are beautiful, even if they are terrifying, how amazing, we can live this in under a day.
Five to ten hours, while we are there. Our emotions, our thoughts. There to see, bare.
You follow your breath, or a ticking clock, to take you to this world that is frequently forgot.
This, is the part that intrigues me the most, as I believe our dreams are not meant to be a boast.
Like our spoken dreams, our life dreams, we should keep under lock - and key, as no one needs to know about them, or have the chance to mock.
They are sacred, unique, and true. No dream is the same for him, her, me, you.

Love.
Love. This word. Everyone wants it. One of the shortest words, most simple words, but means the absolute world to everyone on this god-dammed, sad planet. I thought he cared, I thought he “loved” me. Here’s the tragic poem I wrote, I told you it was real. Are you sure you’re ready for this?

Perception
This was written for Paul's wonderfully creative unofficial challenge which you can read about in the link below! I chose to 'remix' or in my case, answer? Paul's words with my own, using his poem, Great Nothingness, as the inspiration. All words in italics are Paul's. His original piece was an acrostic for the Dancing with Distraction Vocal challenge. I followed the acrostic theme...you can see for yourself what I chose :)

Victim or Survivor
TW: Mention of self harm and suicide attempts I'll preface this article with I have never listened to any other songs by Citizen Soldier. I had never heard of them until I found out from an Icon for Hire stream where they told fans about an "upcoming collab," being with Citizen Soldier. As soon as I saw that it was on Spotify, I listened to it over and over... And over because of the lyrics.
