"myself"
————————————————————————
i really do hate myself.
¡ hate the way my hair falls beside my face and the way my eyes glisten in the sun.
i hate waking up and looking in the mirror to see my least favorite person staring back.
from the way my chest rises and falls when i breathe to the buried
emotions i've been too lost to confront, i can't stand any part of me.
i really am afraid of myself.
i'm afraid the words i speak are not the truth and that i've forgotten who i am. i'm afraid nothing will ever be enough to make me feel whole. from the way i can barely contain my shame to the nightmares that come alive in my head every night, i wish i had the courage to accept myself.

God complex
A hero is summoned to another world, vanquishes evil, yadda yadda, saves the kingdom and lives happily ever after. There is no such hero in this story. Just a desperate youth with great ambition and very little to lose. A zero to hero style story set in a country clearly inspired by modern USA with just as many issues and the minority of mages often pulling strings from the shadows. I am also hoping the whole thing won't turn out edgy enough to cut me. I want to rely on actual good writing rather than cheap powertrip gimmicks. edit: Please don't mind Zetari's salty review. He is quite literally making up any use of the torture and human experimentation trope and says MC is blank after 4 chapters where he conveniently stops reading just at the start of his first character development. For extra entertainment, I will be uploading chapters two at a time and compose a relevant poem through the chapter names. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
