I have to wonder
Who really cares whether I come or go
I keep a distance so I don’t show
What I can guarantee no one wants to know
So superficial is my smile
You don’t really want to see
What’s hidden inside of me
I just want to be free…from you…from myself…from the constraints of this life…
Yet I continue as I do
Continue as I will forever
Alone
OMG another amazing poem, I love this too! Felt like this, it’s painful it’s dark.
But please remember, you may feel alone, but you aren’t, anytime you feel this way I’d be happy to message to chat or whatever.
I know what it feels like and feel the same regularly. I don’t want anyone to feel alone in this. I’ll be there for a chat 🙂

Wasn’t sure 100% how I should interpret this until I saw that you have 2 cats. Then I thought, well everything is all good. Seriously we are all alone. No one knows anyone completely, just impossible. So on some level regardless of the situation we all alone. We definitely experiencing thing personally even within a group. So maybe being alone is really due to the nature by which we’ve been built to experience life. You can share an experience, but you can’t share someone else’s processing of the experience. Maybe I’m thinking too much into this one.

I love my cats MJ – they’re better then people and yeah I have moments where I feel alone but I do have friends and a husband there if I really need them. There’s just a lot that I face alone because Im not ready to share or I don’t think people want to hear the things I do face .That’s what the cats are for – they never judge 😉 and posting here is easier for me because people either get me and accept the good and bad in my brain or they don’t. You get me- that’s why I like you and also cause your cool 👊🏻

I get you! And I understand about spending time within your own head and emotions. And then writing them out. 🙂

I care. I’d miss your writing if you were to go. I’m sure if I knew you, personally, I’d miss you as well.

I think the fear of not being missed is one of the main reasons I’m still here. But nobody is ever truly alone, as long as they don’t want to be.

The fear of being missed is so interesting. I feel that but also somehow (makes no sense to me) hope for it, hope no-one would miss me, to prove me right, even if I know I’m wrong.
There are always people out there to talk and listen, the hard part is getting the strength to reach out, a friend, relative or stranger. Also to find them.

I know what you mean, wrote a poem about how those turn away when hearing of your troubles. I reply saying fine as well when people ask, even if I’m not, been better recently but still.
