'Why I Do'
When you’re the ‘go to’ person, for everyone you know, who do you have to turn to?
My brain is scattered, in both my conscious and unconscious states.
I can’t think straight to save myself.
I don’t feel close to anyone anymore.
I want everything that I can’t have.
I miss everyone. I miss everything.
I want to sleep to stop thinking, but if I do, I know nightmares are in store.
I hate everyone and everything around me, and I hate that I hate it.
Nothing feels right. At all.
Nobody believes like I do.
I need the “Everything will be okay“‘s that I haven’t heard in years.
The “Don’t worry your head, just go to sleep“‘s.
I need something, someone, to console me away from the harsh reality.
I’m afraid of everything.
Everybody grew up too fast.
I will never be ready to move past this all.
I will never understand why everyone is who they are.
Or why they enjoy being that person.
I can’t accept my family for who they are.
I can’t stand who they become. Who they’re becoming.
Everyone is everything that I despise.
Right now, I am everything that I despise.
I need a break.
I need a hug.
I need a good cry.
I need a good night’s sleep.
