Why Do I…
Why do I have
A consuming need
For things unattainable
Fueled by my greed
Why do I wish
For a fairytale life
When all I end up with
Is heartache and strife
Why do I stand
Outside in the rain
Then act all surprised
And curse all the pain
Why do I need
To feel owned and controlled
By someone who leaves me
With words left untold
Why do I write
These words as I cry
Because if I stopped
I fear I might die
it’s an emotional roller coaster at times. hugs

Thank you. Sometimes raw is very healing. Sometimes it’s just raw.

Yes, that’s true. Raw is liberating, but scary as hell sometimes, especially when I feel stuck in a place. Or when I have no idea how to proceed, but I know I have to move in a direction. It’s that rawness that always helps me find my way, despite its discomfort and all the turmoil it brings. Maybe because of it.

I think that is just life… Perhaps we have to have the pain to appreciate the ecstasy… Mirrored by our physical desires…. At least mine 😄😌❤️

The answer to the questions are simply, why not. To do anything, is to believe and trust in yourself. Life is a series of chances. If you don’t take the chance, what might you miss experiencing. Will you like what you experienced, maybe. Will you regret it if you don’t try it, forever. The only way you will ever fail, is if you don’t try. And the coolest thing is, that failure breeds success. I would much rather live a life that has all the highs and lows, and remember the things that were done, rather than wonder what may have been. Thank you for sharing your words and opening up your soul with the rest of us. Hugs!!

I completely agree. Regret what you did, not what you didn’t do. 🙂

I used to feel that way once upon a time. Then I came to trust more and it is working out according to the plan 5 years ago. I do like how you deal with your emotions. Good luck to you my dear
