There is this weird balance of me needing it because i get to share my work but at the same time its a need for attention the views my work spreading like I've wanted it to for so long people actually understanding me the praise god i love the praise I yearn for the love and connection I gain i cant get over it it draws me in both ways then i get stressed out im not as good as i once thought. Consider giving it all up, but i know it's one of the only ways i feel better better about things i cant get help with

Transparency of the drains of writing and sharing poetry
There is this weird balance of me needing it because i get to share my work but at the same time its a need for attention the views my work spreading like I've wanted it to for so long people actually understanding me the praise god i love the praise I yearn for the love and connection I gain i cant get over it it draws me in both ways then i get stressed out im not as good as i once thought.

I'm stuck at a in-between I love this place but it's addicting but my only true place to be seen
