Maybe it's me...
"And I don't want the world to see me. Because I don't think that they'd understand. When everything's made to be broken, I just want you to know who I am."
I truly believe that the Goo Goo Dolls nailed what everyone feels with these lyrics.
Sometimes in life we find people that enable us to be ourselves freely. Other times we find the people who make us shelve everything we want to be and express.
I haven't felt truly alive in quite sometime now. The feeling comes and goes.
As we grow older friends move on and develop family lives of their own. Losing touch honestly hurts. And I find myself experiencing feelings that I haven't had burst through since teenage years. Those empty stomach feelings certain people make you experience. It's sickening yet what you want.
Why do we put ourselves through such pain? Caring is natural I imagine. So why does it hurt so much?
I just want to be me. Be who I am inside. Yet the people that help me achieve this feeling are either gone or not meant to be around me.
What do we do to deserve these aches and pains?
And how do they subside?
