I’m so far from where I want to be
I tear my mind apart the second I wake up
I don’t “hear voices” like I thought I did at 18
Nope, no voices
Just screaming racing rushing jumbled chaotic angry relentless vulgar bile
All sludgey and gross
And also sharp and jagged
And that’s just when I wake up
Why share this?
Why share anything?
Because
Well honestly
I don’t really know
This post is so far from beautifull
So far from concise
It’s not delicate and tasteful
It’s me
It’s a fucking mess
End it on a positive note today?
Okay
In positive news
I’ve been listening to Matt Maeson
“Legacy” and “mask”
Turns out,
Even the people I envy and admire
They are just as fucking crazy
It’s like with kat
She thought I was so dam cool
writing outside a coffee shop
Smoking and listening to music
And my photos of sano
Hahaha
I was writing (Probbably) about how meaningless life felt
I was smoking because I needed a sliver of the dopamine I saw others possessed.
I listen to music because then someone else is vulnerable and broken and for once it’s not me
I surf because If I don’t…
—————-
So what she saw
Was not what I felt
And maybe that’s how Matt feels
What I see as vulnerability and passion and raw intimacy and courage,
He just sees it as a way to pass the time without swallowing a hollow point
Point to this all?
What you see in me and what I feel inside are not the same
And what I see in you and what you feel inside
Those aren’t the same either
She doesn’t write all day because she’s got such a calm and tranquil headspace
He isn’t baked at 8 am because he’s really stoked about how his life turned out
And I don’t sit here every dam day and scream into a page because I’m really really fucking happy
So,
Don’t assume you know what’s going on with them
And then put yourself down because “your not as cool as they are”
Because what you idolize them for
Might just be what they have to do to survive
So,
I need to be kind
And stop letting obsessive self-deprecation
Keep me from saying hi
Or howdy
Or hello
Or how are you
Because 90% of what I see
Is just 10% of what they feel
PS: YEP MY WRITING REALLY IS THIS BAD
