《Badly Written Poetry From A Fucked Mind》Problems
Advertisement
(Hey so, heh, sorry for disappearing, um holidays are a shit time to be around my family and I'm out here stressing about my life and future because if I don't worry about it who will. So I solemnly swear that I won't disappear again, hopefully. And a little question for you guys what is your favorite holiday tradition (if you have any) I'm curious, mine is making this thing called monkey bread on Christmas morning, litterally the tastiest thing I've ever had. Anyway with that out of the way, no TW this time and stay safe!)
Pushing problems away has always been a skill
Not a good one
But a skill none the less
And a skill you have mastered
If a problem is happening you ignore it
Not because you don't won't to solve it
You'd like to solve all problems
But because you've been solving problems forever
Every issue that hit you
You solved right away
Because the less problems there are the less there is to deal with
But now
Now you're just done
Because it's not just your problems
It never really was
But now, especially now
It's everything all at once
Your brother is going through a break up and he tells you it all
His ex still talks to you
So every side is being told
And the fixer in you wants to solve this
So you give out advice
And you give out advice
And some more advice
But every time it always causes something new
And every time you need to fix it
Your mother tells you everything happening at work
So you listen
And you of course want to fix it
So you give her advice
But this time it's an argument
You don't understand why
But it's an argument
And every time these things backfire you just want to fix them more
And now you're so tired of it all
You could care less
But everyone else needs someone to listen
So when you push their problems away
It's just more problems
And god you just can't handle this shit anymore
You have your own issues
Your own problems that need solving
But of course the fixer in you doesn't want to do that
They're done helping
Done solving
Done trying to keep it all together
So you push them away
Push all your problems away

I Need Time
An action, adventure, mystery and strategy story about a strong male lead. Author note: First time author, good amount of buffer chapters (over 50k words) so I will not drop this book anytime soon. This book will mostly be from the perspective of the MC. On average +5k words will be published per week. I have not chosen some of the genres and tags as I do not wish to give away parts of the story. I added the content warning tags as there will come a time for profanities, gore and maybe "traumatising" content. Though, in my opinion the content will be mild if not light. *****SPOILER*****SPOILER***** Synopsis: A college ICT student transmigrates to another world filled with magic and learns magic from a dragon. MC uses modern knowledge to develop magitech technology. MC starts his adventure using the technology he develops! Saving princesses, fighting hidden criminal organizations, learning how horribly medieval peasants live, reasoning with uneducated narrow minded people, investigating the nature of magic and searching for gods... Story review: A fantasy/sci-fi story filled with some common cliches yet presents somewhat original ideas and a few unexpected twists & turns here and there. This novel also explores a few of the commonly ignored topics concerning medieval fantasy like hygiene, culture, education(ignorance, narrow mindedness) and the fact that everybody is short because magical crops cost too much. Modern knowledge in such a setting can often times revolutionize the world if the protagonist is not an idiot or weak willed or thinks something stupid like he should not intervene in a society that systematically practices unequality of opportunity, slavery and other nasty things, of course sometimes the protagonist can be just unlucky by being enslaved, etc. In our case we are granted a protagonist who had an initial stroke of luck, learning magic from a dragon instead of struggling for years without it or randomly dieing. After that his luck goes down the drain. It is arguable whether the princess is a good stroke of luck or not, I digress. Anyway the challenges the protagonist must face will grow and no more luck or helping hands. After gaining enough power and security the protagonist will change the world for the better or at least give it a stronge push onto the right track. He will make a lot of lives better but things are never so simple and there is much more to this world than meets the eye... Missing genres & tags: Fantasy, Sci-fi, Magic. *****SPOILER*****SPOILER*****
