My therapy homework was to feel.
Ever since I was little I was trained not feel, and especially not to express it. Through this it seems that I have become excellent at exploiting fake emotions and going on cues in conversations instead of what is happening in my head. There's this huge thought process to what I can and can't say.
So, in a way, I'm cutting out the middle man. He was never really very nice anyway.
It's hard to accept these emotions and feelings. I haven't done it in so long.
Sometimes I wish that we could all say those honest words we can't afford. Then we could be open and not have to hide how we feel. I guess that would make things hurtful in ways though.
Sometimes I feel like my life is made up of waiting. Waiting to speak, waiting to see, waiting for tomorrow, waiting to redeem myself.
All I want to do is help those I love, but I feel so helpless and inadequate. I really do feel like that line from Guernica 'If I could I would shrink myself, sink through your skin to your blood cells, remove what ever makes you hurt, but I am too weak to be your cure.'
My chemistry teacher, who knows all that has gone recently, told me he was really proud of me the other morning. I wish I could feel like I deserve such praise. I wish I could feel less angry at myself and less empty.
I wish I wish I wish, isn't that right? There wasn't a reply though. Oh well. Some questions may be better left unanswered, or at least that's what I've always heard anyway.
I gave blood a couple of days ago. It makes me feel good to know I'm helping someone I will never meet or know. I can get over my fears for that.
There's so much more I want to say, but I just don't know how to.
I'm sorry, I really am, I wish I could be better and more helpful. I never meant to be this person, or this lack of one. I feel so lost again. I just want to see the light, haven't I been patient enough?
