I Never Understand Myself

Lex

Sometimes, I admire my obscure and complex brain.

Other times, I hate how it brings me this unbearable pain. 

Sometimes, I cry because I want to feel again.

Other times, it's because I don't want the sadness to end.
Sometimes, I reach out to people when I'm low.

Other times, my emptiness is where I wallow.

Sometimes, I hurt myself to distract my mind.

Other times, it's the only comfort I find.

Sometimes, I sincerely want to die.

Other times, I know I'm not ready to say goodbye.

Sometimes, I feel like I've figured out who I am.

Most other times, I don't know who I am.
