TEAR'S
I've seen bad I've seen good
I've grown through life pretty good
So much I don't I don't understand
Sometimes it's hard to be a man
I've seen unjust and I've seen fair
If I show it or not I'm scared
Don't believe no need to worry
People will never all agree
I've cried enough tears to make it rain
I've had my share of pain
Why is life the way it is
Takes much more than gives
I've seen wrong I've seen right
contradictions causes fights
Tell me there's not a better way
to get along together today
I've cried enough tears to make it rain
I've had my share of pain
why is life the way it is
Takes not gives
So I've seen A and I've seen B
Grown through life feeling free
They will never just never will
Live in Harmony being free will
No the world never will
Have harmony nor ever free will
I've cried enough tears to make it rain
I've had my share of pain
why is life the way it is
Takes more than gives
Differences' will always be in the way
But let us pray

Fan Art Friday: Good Omens by AlexanderPaupoff, journal
Fan Art Friday: Good Omens
This week's Fan Art Friday feature celebrates Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch - a story about ineffable plans and an extraordinary, timeless friendship. Whether you first fell in love with the novel by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman, or its phenomenal TV adaptation, Good Omens and its quirky ensemble of characters have left an indelible mark on storytelling and fandom alike.
For many of us, Good Omens is more than just a story. It's a celebration of the strange, beautiful chaos of humanity, a tale of unexpected bonds, and a reminder that even in the face of apocalypse, there's always hope.
Recent conversations surrounding Gaiman might spark mixed feelings for some of us, and it's always important to engage with these matters thoughtfully. However, this space is focused on showcasing how deeply this story has resonated with people across the world.

Literature
to my younger self // letters
i wrote to you
by grazing a fingertip
over the fabric
of my empty pocket
by tracing letters
across the snow
with my eyes
while the wind blew
and the lake air
cut thru all my layers
the waves grow too tall
for the water
sizzling with meshes of ice
eight letters crashing
over and over
no spaces between
just memories
overlapped into a tangle
i am sorry
