  • I've been struggling with self love, patience and trying to figure things out as the days pass by. It's been a while since I sat down and wrote something, so I wrote down my thoughts while trying to analyze why I act and think a certain way.

    "Knowing that they try to convince me that I can't survive." That was the line in this one that really stuck with me. I loved this one, glad to see you're still going strong. Keep being this honest and congratz on the 2k

      Your not the only person that can relate ! I have been abandoned , cheated , and offered a FWB deal over a year ago ! And I feel now like should I have just accepted what was offered ! Because being alone , with out her ! Tears me to pieces , why after all those talks about forever and marriage was I just not important enough ! Not worth enough to someone that did this before to me , and I gave her more love and she did it again ! Yeah I would react to her behavior that irritated me! Ex: She was touching other men in a bar infront of me ! Lap dancing one rubbing the others chest! And completely ignored me ! On the way home I asked how could you do this to me ! Her reply because I liked it !
      I lost it ! I felt so degraded so much anger ! And aftet we got back home she called her EX well supposedly her EX ? And talked to him ! I lost my mind !
      But I still loved her ! And there were other instances !
      Why do I have to love someone who treated me so poorly???

      Why do i care what others think of me
      Even though i know their opinions won’t help me in any way
      Why do i care when it comes to how i breathe,
      How i walk or talk ?
      And whether I should go or stay ?
      Why do i care if i try my hardest to get my crush to notie me ?
      But the effort isn’t mutual
      And i am just left ignored or on read
      Why do i care if i don’t get a text back and start thinking that i lack
      In personality and beauty to the point my negative thought become facts
      Why do i care about finding love so badly and breaking myself in the process of hurting my heart
      Over and over again
      It feels like i can never win
      Why do i care if she’s met her soulmate ?
      Or he’s already reached his goals ?
      Yes, i can be happy for them
      But why must i feel like i’m behind and failing compared to them ?
      Why do i care about the fears and doubts that eat me alive ?
      Knowing that they try to convince me that i can’t survive
      Why do i care so much to where i can’t help but cry and can’t seem to sleep ?
      Because this so called caring has turned into an obsession
      Not even going to mosque and giving the Allah of my confession
      Can remove these excruciating and palpitating feelings that suck the life out of me
      Why do i care about what a word or an action might mean ?
      And continue to agonize over until i’m on the brink of insanity ?
      There are many days i wish i did not feel, or think or care at all
      Then perhaps life would be easier,
      And i wouldn’t continue to fall
      Maybe i’m i love with the idea taht somehow things will go my way
      Somehow i’ll get my happy ending
      And somehaow nothing will go astray
      Why can’t i numb these racing thoughts and put a stop to a timer that’s ticking within my mind ?
      Why do i care so much if i’m not on the same page as everyone else ?
      And force myself to speed up time
      I ask myself why i care
      And the only answer i can come up with
      Is because i do
      And unfortunately
      So do you......

    Wow! That was so great Mel! very relatable and I love how you read it. I actually love writing poetry as well and I noticed I wrote a piece as well titled, "Why Do I Care?" so if you'd like to check it out here it is and I find the themes very similar:
    Why Do I Care?
    Anxiety can turn me into a silent film
    Only to be viewed from a far not heard
    No sound
    Just silence
    Picking up the phone, but no one is on the other end
    Only there is someone there, too quiet to hear
    Too sad to even want to listen
    They just keep staring at me, what do they want?
    Are they judging me just to expose my insecurities to their fullest?
    But why does what you think matter so much to me?
    It doesn't really matter if you don't love me for who I am that's not my problem it's everyone else's...
    ...Right?
    So why then...
    Why do I care?
    Why?
    Why?

    È una persona come me che ha visto l'ultima ora della sua vita. Capisce benissimo che la vita un istante e che non fare mai tanti conti a lungo e fare quello che desideri e quando tocca l'amore e se va bene va bene se non va bene non va bene e non bisogna prendersela. Dico un'altra volta troppi calcoli è troppo stupida. A una persona come me ha visto l'ultimo ora della sua vita coi suoi occhi ingiustamente. Non si dtressa Per amore o per altre cose le vede le cose come vanno cosicché troppi calcoli troppo calcoli portano pure troppo stress io questo stress non lo porto nemmeno se vado a notare quei pesci cani cosicché troppi calcoli troppo esaurimento io a questo persona quali faccio i complimenti perché così che io mi sento contenta solo a vedere questa persona e non ho bisogno di niente di più se non è possibile ed è questo il motivo che tanta gente va in depressione. Io entro in acqua alle 6 di mattina con l'onda 120 noto 30 metri lontano dalla riva ho 50 m e non mi stresso perché la morte passa una volta e basta. Chi si stressa perché non ha tutta questa pratica mia cosicché io non nuoto poco ma per tre ore che ti potrebbe mangia tutti i pesci cani che stanno lì dentro tutte chiacchiere e tute stupidate perché domani mattina anche se c'hai i soldi soldi puoi avere un incidente e andare nell'altro mondo cosicché troppi calcoli e troppa stupidità. se la persona mi dice non mi dare fastidio Allora mi allontano ma non deve credere che mi sta esaurendo la vita perché io mi diverto perché amo una persona. se quell'altra persona lo vede come un gioco e non mi dice non mi dare fastidio perché non è normale ma io penso che quella persona lì è più che normale ma non ha l'esperienza della mia vita certe esperienze potresti fare pure il 10 scuole ma non ce la fai a stare dentro e si chiama più o meno intelligenza emotiva c'è si ottiene solo nel campo della Battaglia e non è libri di scuola
