Order requires energy.

Disorder requires nothing.

Leave anything alone long enough and it will not organize itself.

It will not maintain itself.

It will not even stay as it was.

This is not failure.

This is the default direction of everything.

The room stays clean because someone keeps cleaning it.

The relationship stays close because someone keeps choosing it.

Nothing holds its shape by accident.

Poetry in Pieces

nobody taught me how to need someone without apologizing for it.

so i just stayed quiet and called it strength.

i'm still learning those aren't the same thing.

Poetry in Pieces

somewhere between i'm fine and i haven't been fine in months is where i actually live.

most people never ask which one i mean.
