Sometimes

Caring dove

Sometimes you just want the company you wish for 

not the company you have 

like someone you know better 

like that leaf next to you 

on a tree 

but that leaf is over there 

there not by your side 

when you want them to be 

 

so you have the company that’s here 

when you wish you had someone else around you 

 

that’s a little lonely , really ..

    A feeling of being just a little out of place. Nicely said

    • Caring dove

      Thankyou )) that’s exactly how I feel , sometimes .. out of place

    • Tristan Robert Lange

      It is. I know the feeling well, sadly; though, I'd imagine for you, the dissociation adds a different and even more difficult layer to this. Well done in expressing this. I'm sure we're not the only ones who have felt that way and thus this will be a healing read for those who have. And for those who haven't...awareness is raised. Again, well done. πŸŒΉπŸ‘ A fave from me.

        Thankyou very much

        Yeah , dissociation and feeling certain ways makes it feel worse . When I feel certain ways in my mind and struggling to β€˜ feel β€˜ connected , to myself and others .. and missing people ( that can make me sad )

        But it depends ..

        Yeah dissociation sometimes makes it hard to feel I can connect to others

        But it’s sometimes easier

        Thanks for the kind words of support

        • Tristan Robert Lange

          You are most welcome. Yeah, there are always exceptions to everything and, perhaps, in cases such as this those exceptions are small graces given us. You are most welcome, my friend. Thank you for your willingness to share. I am very thankful our paths have crossed and we get to "know" each other as best as we can in this format. Happy vibes being sent your way. πŸ™πŸ–€πŸ˜Š

          Very relatable to many, not quite in the right place at the right time, nicely expressed

          that happens quite often - the company around is not the one we crave, and the company we crave is sometimes not around - but that's life
