Seeing Red

little lay lay



If you aren't willing to understand, then that's okay.  I didn't expect you to anyway.

If you aren't willing to listen, then that's okay too, because I didn't expect you to either...

but it would be nice every once in a while--- if you would, to help me with my stamina.  At the moment its unbalanced and I'm weak. I AM NOT strong.  I need a push every once and a while to keep me from slowing down.  Some distraction to help me OR something different because this isn't helping any.

Nothing is working I'm Seeing Red.  Nothing is clear, my vision is blurred, nothing is mattering, my world is shattering.  Crumbling, Tumbling, Over.

Not down...Over.

Soon to become USELESS.

  • Comment from author about the poem: "So live life like you’re giving up. 'Cause you act like you are. Go ahead and just live it up. Go on and tear me apart…" - Ed Sheeran this quote came to mind just now it is from the song Even My Dad Does Sometimes by Ed Sheeran. I will attach a link for the song because it brings tears to my eyes. Now for my explanation. All of our voices want to be heard. We all hope to leave a mark on the world but sometimes there is too much pressure and it gets a little too much that we crumble and give up. Sadly some of us speak our minds but people just won't open up to pay attention. They never take someone's feelings into their consideration but yet they want to put their two cents in or be all in the kool-aid not knowing the flavor by saying whatever. So seeing red is stressful and very real "but just for today....hold on."

    So beautiful. Brought tears to my eyes, I feel the same way as you do. As the song says, hold on..
