So They Say
I'm now guzzling my fourth can of Heiny. At 7.07pm in the evening.
I feel sick but I refuse to barf because I feel that if I do, I'd feel the pain again.
They say when you hit rock bottom, the only way is up.
They say that it can only get better.
They say that tomorrow will be better.
They say dreams come true.
They say that good things come to those who waits.
They say they know how it feels.
They say the pain will go away, eventually.
They say life is beautiful.
They say nothing is impossible.
They say it's all in the mind.
They say everything happens for a reason.
They say what can't kill you will only make you stronger.
They say you're not alone.
I say how much do they really know?
I say how many miles have they walked in my shoes?
I say how would they know?
I say how sure are they?
I know I fell and stayed fallen.
I know it hurt.
I know it never went away.
I know I waited in vain.
I know 'care' and 'love' are but pretty words.
I know I've cried.
I know I've tried.
I know I'm alone.
I know I'd always be.
I know things will never change.
I know I'd never find.
I know I'd never believe.
Now tell me, who's living the lie?
Noone gets out of life alive.
I'd rather live life knowing what it really is than to live life a lie.
The realities of life. That's the real scary thing.

Just passing by..
What you wrote irked me,
for I recalled
how I felt defeated
by my emotions,
by my mind.
They said if you conquer
you mind,
You conquer the world.
How true is that,
I wish I have a clue.

The mouths that speak of such words belong to the same hearts that can never feel what I feel.
I know I've heard many things. I also know it didn't change what happened or how I feel.
Optimism - just another word for 'denial'
Thank you for dropping by mrdes.
Sharry is merciless and excellent!
If there is not a patron saint of sorrow, there should be. I do not mock you, honest expressions are always negative. And nothing positive has ever come from pretending everything is good when it isn't. What you are doing is very positive, and you should completely immerse yourself in this fugue-like state of grace, until all your critics have imploded under the weight of their own graceless machinations.
Patron saint of sorrow. I like that. Kinda like something I can wear around my neck.
Heh.
Thanks Random Frisk.
