success? successs..
    
    i am happier i think. i don’t think i deserve any recognition- especially when compared to others. 
    
    it’s kind of really complicated. i don’t think there’s like.. people who really 
    care about my thoughts or artwork or stories outside of my close friends. 
    i’ve had people tell me that basically no one really looks at my writings and 
    having it told to me so plainly has established how unimportant i am in the 
    grand scheme of things. it’s why I kind of gave up on my rss feed and don’t 
    really take anything seriously nowadays. no one’s really looking. no one gives 
    a shit about me. one day ophanimkei will seaze to exist. it will be as meaningless 
    as a lone flower dying on a hot summer's day.
    
    outside of my artwork and stories, there are projects that ask for contributions from 
    members of communities to make beautiful things (zines, jams, webrings, cliques etc). 
    i’m very happy about all of this. i am ultimately unimportant in these projects. 
    i just come up with the idea and other creators make them successful. i am always
    happy to bring people together to make beautiful things. there’s just a balance of
    happiness and anxiety and fatigue. i sometimes (often) overextend myself with these community projects, and 
    the happiness that comes from them is kind of absent until the project is completed and I can see everyone’s 
    contributions. These projects often take months to come to fruition 
    so it can be a dark time but ultimately it makes me happy.
    
    but i don't know. i'm really tired. 
    i started withdrawing for the first time in years.. 
    leaving many spaces.. hiding away.. i feel like the me 
    i've put so much energy into maintaining is dying. 
    something ugly is escaping.

    my life is really good yet i lose everyone
    my life is really good yet im still sick

    no one can hear me
    well
    everyone can hear me
    but no one can help me
    im just meant to die
    
    it would be so nice
    to go to the top of mount everest.
    i'd go in nameless poem. or get a nameless poem replica made of cotton. 
    
    my hair would be in long braids. 
    i'd take off my protective gear at the very top and then lie in the snow
    i'd take sleeping pills and freeze to death
    
    such a beautiful way to die.
    it is my dream.
    i have to remind myself not to die.
    because if i die,
    shouldn't it be somewhere beautiful?
    where i can remain eternal?

    i've really become a really awful person. i want to disappear i think. i'm not sure. i've been so lethargic. 
    i dont want to update my website. i dont want to work on my game. 
    i have projects coming soon, and while i do love them, i almost feel shackled down by them. 
    i can't do anything drastic because i'll disappoint everyone around me.
    
    there's nothing lovely here. it feels like every single beautiful flower rots immediately. 
    or perhaps they're made of plastic? the world has lost its color again. its lost its color. 
    i cant stop falling asleep at work. my mom tells me how embarrassing i am. i am embarrassing.
     am a horrible child. adult i mean. i deserve worst than death. i cant stop crying.
    
    i started reading a visual novel called sutekina kanojo no tsukurikata. 
    i think i managed to avoid the bad ends for a while, but then bad things started happening. 
    i started thinking about how i was when i was younger. what i'm like without meds. i'm always lonely.
    im always miserable.i have horrible impulses. i think im a good person, but lately i find myself acting on these impulses more often. 
    stupid stupid stupid. at my core i am completely evil. everyone thinks i am so kind, but really my halo is just a headband.
    
    i want to go home but there is no home. i want ot be safe but i'll never be safe. 
    theres no future for me in this horrible world. i should die i should die. 
    i should be crucified.
    
    its been so hard to write lately. i read so many things. i have so many experiences. b
    ut im so tired. everything is too much work.
    
    can someone tell me how awful i am already so i can finally go into a garage and turn on the engine. 
    i would take melatonin and fall asleep.. i know where it owuld be. 
    it'd be so nice. get me out of here. im not even suicidal i think. i dont know why im like this. i dont know.
    
    my birthday is soon.
