Every game we played comes back to haunt me like a lie, distinct patterns on every bow and tie. The sun dawns on me, but life isn't always a logical tautology. There doesn't always have to be a reason behind madness, sometimes we snap and things happen, and we apologise, but sometimes sorry isn't enough. Sometimes the cut is too deep to heal, and sometimes we overact, and our feelings make monsters out of eternal longings. A bridge too broken to be fixed. Sometimes the ride home is long and we feel like a joke, and sometimes we want more than this, but we panic in moments of heartbreak, and we act out of frustration, but inside we are softer than pulp, just needing to be loved and needing someone to listen.

Introspection is one of the best things to write about. Very well written.
It’s okay to snap and break sometimes. That softness always seems to come back; me thinks.
Yes. Self reflection is the best step forward to breaking a chain, I guess if you\'re strong and mature enough to take responsibility and manifest it. It\'s pretty ironic because my life is filled with toxicity. A sparkle of reflection and true understanding is a priceless money shot for me. So recently I careless, as usual, and out of frustration I said to mean things and had an argument with a friend which lead to us temporarily falling out. He's a decent guy and I was just being a dickhead. I know sometimes I\'m melodramatic as fuck, and it\'s one of my biggest downsides. It\'s not that I don\'t perceive myself as jovial, I think I just take myself way too seriously. But it\'s good to recognise your mistakes, and forgiveness is a gift, even when you have to find that forgiveness for yourself. I\'m actually quite pensive a lot and definitely enjoy solitude more than company. Sometimes people just really fucking annoy the shit out of me, because I\'m a dumb perfectionist Virgo. But it\'s also a massive relief when you can harvest regret and turn it into a positive change, although I\'m certainly not perfect by any means. It only takes one spark to start a fire!
A reason behind madness... this riddle may well drive me crazy! Nice low-key confessional today.
You know recently I've been more self-conscious about my writing. It makes a change since I'm usually troubled with a delusional self confidence big enough to crush an ego. Thanks for reading!
'but inside we are softer than pulp'
