“Needles” When I close my eyes at Night I see myself being stuck by the needle It’s not something I need But it is something that I chase after I never thought I would overcome my fear of needles Until I realized that this gave me the euphoric high I was always looking for In this dream, I feel hypnotized A euphoric sense of happiness And a lust for life That I have never before felt A world where differences Were accepted and seen as The norm No one cared now if you were Picture perfect No one cared if you put on extra Pounds Or if your teeth weren’t perfectly straight It was almost like a eutopia Living in harmony With each other Regardless of differences In opinion When I wake I find it a shame That it is just a dream It is what I long for Without the artificial Sources I wish my mind Could take me away To a place with peace I wish it wasn’t Something that just Existed in my dreams

I am so blessed to have made it almost 36 years on the Earth!! Quite an accomplishment, especially with the understanding that I almost ended my life at 17 years of age. I was so young and so naive. I really had no idea who I was or even worse, what I wanted. I know lots of people enjoy making resolutions. That's not something I have done for the past two years. and resolutions are so concrete.
