Rant

some days the inside of your mind is the safest place to be

some days you feel trapped

sometimes you are so tired of wasting more energy on the wrong people

but the right ones are so far away from you

so near yet so far

and you want to reach out but you don't because you're afraid

because rejection are for the undesirable

and you know everything about being undesirable

and you don't like looking like a fool

because life is cruel to fools

 

you long for the world where everyone around you was smart and witty and fun

but that world spit you out long time ago

now you have to pretend to be entertained by tasteless jokes and mindless comments

from people who think in a different way

and you're so disgusted but all you can do is pretend and pretend and pretend

so the ones with shining eyes don't look your way

you pretend you're all fine and dandy

while you scream silently inside your head

and you're tired, so tired, always tired
