    Summary

    It sure would be neat if Tyler Joseph read this.
    Nothing weird, promise.

    To anyone reading this:

    I want you to know you are not alone. My story may not be the same as yours, but I’ve had my share of battles. At one point, I thought the weight of everything would crush me. But somehow, through the music, the community, and the moments of light I clung to, I found my way.

    If you’re feeling lost, please know there is a place for you here. Your struggles do not define you, and you are stronger than you think. Tyler’s music reminds us to keep going, to embrace our humanity, and to connect with others who understand.

    I am here. I am happy you are too.

    Summary

    Reimagined as a conversation.

    They sat on the floor, backs against the couch, the soft flicker of Good Day, Columbus morning news casting faint shadows around the room. Tyler stared at the screen, unfocused, his fingers idly tugging at a loose thread on his hoodie.

    "We don't believe what's on TV," he said quietly, almost like he was thinking out loud.

    Josh turned his head, sensing the weight in his voice. He didn't interrupt, just let the silence make space.

    Summary

    This prose poem reflects my struggle between giving up and pushing through. I question whether surrender is easier than fighting for success. The imagery of "rotting" and "falling" suggests escape, but I’m still questioning, holding on to a small desire to resist.

    Summary

    Josh's apartment was too quiet. The atmosphere, glass.
    Tyler sat motionless, staring past the space in front of him. His shoulders slouched, eyes dim and distant, his whole posture sunken. His skin had gone pale in the soft lighting—almost ill-looking. Faint shadows pooled beneath his eyes, proof he hadn’t slept in days. He didn’t fidget. His blinks were slow and far between. He seemed suspended—his body and mind disconnected, stalled beneath the weight he carried.
    And still, to Josh, he was the most beautiful person he’d ever laid eyes on. Even in this broken, silent state. Especially in it.

    Josh hummed, a low vibration deep in his throat. Something to fill the silence, because sometimes quiet is violent.

    Summary

    This is a completely made-up scenario, but it's how I imagine Tyler would have sung the song, 9 crimes, in that moment — raw, unfiltered, and full of internal conflict as he grapples with his emotions and the weight of his choices.

    Summary

    I turn my head and bite, sinking my teeth in just enough to make him gasp.

    In the back of my mind, panic lingers. Will this bruise him? It doesn’t matter—what’s done is done.
