I’m tired of always getting told how I should live my life.
Tired of being told what I should be searching for.
Searching for wholeness.
Searching for happiness.
Searching for freedom.
Searching for a will to live.
Searching for the same **** I’ve been searching for my whole life.
Yes I am young and have only lived for a short while but this journey I’m on seems like an eternity, an eternity filled with so many twist and turns that my brain still can’t comprehend.
I’m tired of being told how to live my life
Tired of being told what to be searching for
I’m lost and yes I have had some help along the way but that help isn’t always gonna be there .
I’m still trying to figure out what my purpose is in my life.
I’m trying to understand myself.
I’ve been trying to search for the wholeness.
The happiness.
The freedom.
The will to live.
I’m trying so hard and I’m tired of people telling me to try harder because they don’t know what it’s like to be me, to be inside my head and trying all these new things in order to feel that wholeness, that happiness and freedom, the will to live.
I’m trying but it’s so hard and I’m just tired.
I’m so tired.
Just leave me be and stop telling me what to do and how to live my life.
