okays heres a little thing i wrote, its basically about wanting to do something with your life but feeling unable to do so, the feeling of inadequacy that comes with that, the things you lose to achieve your dreams, etc.
this mind wishes to create, but these hands are numb
unstructurally sound, just waiting for the storm to come
test my fortitude, my walls will crumble
vines climbing like ivy, my brains lost in the jungle
your eyes are crystal clear, the sun uses its vessel
come to me maybe, come to the threshold
ambition runs through you like fire
and doesnt dwindle, it burns
the tree lights with desire
and turns to ash with my withering yearn
your mother made of bark absorbs all your passion
while my mother stands unaffected by the absence
maybe theres a net positive, lost in the black snow
while my mother still stands, yours will fall under the blow
im lying to myself, trying to make it better
if i could, id use every pen every paper every letter
every paint brush every canvas every friend
id use them all to make something beautiful, id use them to no end
the wood would spark and ignite
id say goodbye to my mother, id tell her goodnight
id say thank you for your sacrifice
for all your never ending burdens
id ask if youd do it again
even knowing it would fail all your organs
id will my numb hands to life
id light the match, id pour the gas
id unintentionally sharpen the knife
i created something, didnt i? i got my dream?
so what if it took her life, her bark a scorched mean
if i made something worthwhile, would i be worth it to you?
is that even possible? i dont know what else to do....
am i?
am i worth it to you?

Lovely poem! I feel like this poem also tackles the sacrifices of a mother to provide for her children to get them to a certain point in life although sometimes it feels pointless. Correct me if I'm wrong. :D
nothings wrong when it comes to artist interpretation! lol thank you for your comment :3 even just one person reading my writing feels really nice <33
