Im okay;

ꜱʏʟᴠᴀ

I'm okay. But just sometimes...

Sometimes i cry to the moon at night

I think maybe she'll understand my fight

Sometimes I write and bury a list of all fears

Hide my face and wipe my own tears

They talk about dreams and success

I just feel like a hallucinating mess

Everyone has their passion, their faith, their aim

I'm trying to keep myself sane

Sometimes I cry when I feel like an unwanted friend

Then I distance myself and watch it all end

Sometimes I think I'm too quiet and too annoying

And then I still act like I've been enjoying

Sometimes I write all that I don't have the guts to say

I fold it and hide it from the light of the day

Sometimes I think I'm still just a kid inside

In a world that's too large, cruel, and wide

 

Sometimes, I wonder but just to myself,

And if a star loses its spark in the vast sky

Who would care? who would cry?

And sometimes I think I'm too much

Overthinking, Overfeeling, Overloving,

And then I feel I'm way to little,

Too average, brown eyes, just middle.

And sometimes I feel guilty for it all

What am I missing? Why do I cry?

Why am I failing? Did I even try?

Im okay. Really, I am.

But sometimes, Just sometimes,

I wish it would end.

The stress, the questions, all the fake friends

I wish I wouldn't make up worlds in my head

And retreat to them every chance I get

I wish I didn't have to dream of the girl who doesn't exist

And talk to her and cry to her like a mad fantasist

But I'm fine.

Atleast, Im sure I will be.

    Vacillating moods, emotions and behaviors like a rollercoaster in this poem. Well done

  • Amber D. Petty Patrick

    Words cannot express how deeply, word for word, you have described my everyday life over the past four years. How i felt this, was truly heartfelt and understood. I can offer a little piece of advice from my own experience in this same emotion...keep your head up. Stay grounded. Do not stop. Keep going. If it comes, let it, if it goes, let it. And hold the faith... Your dreams are not just a dream. They are undefined goals. Define them. And then Just Do It....idk you. But I know you got this..thank u for these beautiful words friend. #BeTru2U
