this is me.
this is where i am.
sitting in the library instead of the cafeteria.
studying my *** off only to get an average grade.
friends that love me but i can't feel.
i can't feel.
i walk through the halls that seem like they glow like in my dreams,
some days my feet feel heavy and some days i walk on clouds.
i can feel my mind weighing me down when i run.
but i can't feel their love.
i've forgotten what it feels like to feel love.
i tell them i love them with every inch of my heart but i can't feel it most of the time.
i can feel their concern and uncertainty when i look at nothing and tell them i'm okay today,
that today was okay.

this is where "i chose to be".

i read from one friend's post that "wherever you are in life, this is where you chose to be." and it got me thinking. i can't help but be the way i am. i know i have control of my life and all but it doesn't seem like it. i feel like i'm in the backseat of my own life most of the time. i just wanted to write something about it lol
