If by some fluke
You’re actually reading this
Don’t come back
If you don’t need to
I don’t care
If it means I never see you
Or get to try and fix things
It’s a hell hole out here
And you deserve so much more
Don’t put yourself through
The stress and anxiety
The chaos and uncertainty
Find something else
Something more fulfilling
Something with meaning
Something that won’t slowly suck the life out of you
Even after everything
I still worry
At least a little bit
And I don’t want to see you
Succumb to the stupidity
That these ignorant people are wielding
Stay home
Stay safe
And maybe in some distant future
I’ll get my chance
But likely not
And that’s something I can live with
If it means you’re better off
