- Where is home?
Where is home? I ask myself this question a lot nowadays. No one feels like home, nothing feels like home. Wherever I turn, I feel lost, trying to make my way back home, wherever that is. Wait for me, while I come back to you. I have been searching for you my whole life. I want that feeling again, that feeling of home.

- In That Single Tear
Each time I think about it, I shed a single tear and this tear trickles down my cheek and onto my pants. In that single tear lies my guilt, my agony, my despair. In that single tear lies pain that no amount of talking can fix whether it is with a therapist or with a friend. You see, I was supposed to handle these decisions in a mature manner but I failed. Being the oldest always meant there were higher expectations which I had no problem with but the truth is I am to blame for everything.

- To be Honest
When was the last time you checked in with yourself? Well, I can't even remember the last time I checked in with myself. We warriors, we know how to take care of other humans before we take care of ourselves. Why can't I just learn to take care of myself the way I take care of my beloved friends around me? Wishing someone will treat me right will do me no good, I must learn how to treat myself right. Where there is life, there is hope, so I must take that hope and change my life for myself.

- Lonely Eyes
What is neglect? When no one gives a fuck about you. When you feel alone. When you call your mother for some sweet words but you never get that. When you try so hard to get your sister's approval. When you try so hard to get your mother's approval. Neglect is by definition failing to care for something properly, something or someone. When you need a friend who hugs you. When you need a friend who listens to you. That is neglect.
