Copper Pennies

 They are two copper wires who found each other and fused together to make a basic penny. Something that, in theory, is glorious.

Economies are built around the idea of pennies. But at the end of the day pennies get lost, they get forgotten. Pennies were once very shiny and sometimes still are, but pennies cant pay the bills.

  1. It's fascinating seeing how your words mean much more; the way you interpret those words are inspirational. Knowing what pennies mean to you and others can show us how we see the world through other eyes. Stumbling on the ones on heads make my day.

Addicted

 I've never been addicted to drugs or alcohol before. But I'm addicted to people. I crave certain attention because of the lack of love I got as a child. At least that's what the internet and my therapist say.  I get angry at this boy. This simple, basic boy. This beautifully average, simple boy. I get angry with him.  "Why are you angry at him?"  Because he makes me smile. He makes me laugh.  I don't want to laugh. I don't want to smile.   It tricks my mind into thinking I'm okay. So I tell him, "You make me angry." Naturally, he asks me, "why?"  "Because I'm happy when I'm with you."  You see, the problem is, I'm not ready to be happy.  I'm not ready to be treated with respect. I'm not ready to be showered with positive attention. I was used to being sad. It felt normal to be treated like an afterthought.  So when someone comes around and doesn't make me sad, who doesn't make me feel like an a...

Thank you for destroying me.

"Again, you aren't sorry. You knew exactly what you were doing. you knew exactly what you were saying to me and you took advantage of my trust and you made me look like a fucking fool. I don't give any fucks what you do with your life now. You wont change. Everyone says they will change but liars will be liars.  You will probably lie to your therapist. I literally was trying to genuinely support you the best way I knew how. And I'm not fucking crazy for the ways I'm trying to help you. You like being a fucking sad boy for some stupid reason because it gives you some strange sense of attention that you don't get elsewhere. If you wanted to work things out you would have tried harder. If you actually cared about me like you fucking said you did, you wouldn't have done the exact shit I've cried to you about and you wouldn't have been a manipulative piece of shit. You are trying to play sad boy right now pretending like you had feelings for me but OH NO...

Piano Bar

     It was another slow night at the Piano bar. With the rising cases in the Covid-19 Pandemic no one was going out to a small businesses like this one. The owner of the bar, Phil, was trying so hard to stay open and in business because it's all he knew. He felt bad cutting my hours and knew how I was struggling but I still had my consistent Saturdays and I was thankful he didn't fire me. I had to wear my mask while I played the Piano. I felt a little silly because the few people that did come into the bar didn't even come up to request for songs anymore. I just would make a playlist and stick to that all night.      Like a robot, I mindlessly played songs. My fingers had their own soul and moved willingly. My mind shut off. I just slowly would breath hot air into my mask and my eyes would wander the room but I wasn't looking at anything specific. I was on auto pilot while I my hands danced on the keys, like a dancer on stage.  "Excuse me."  A sm...
