Rejected

I put myself out there

Hopeful
Earnest
Smiling

Can I go? Include me, please!

Unnoticed
Unincluded
Unloved

Hello, I am right here!

Not seen
Not wanted
Not loved

Giving up
Hurts to be left out
Tired of feeling defeated

REJECTION

Why oh why?

Nothing seems to make much sense to me anymore.

My mood and emotions are going absolutely haywire!
I feel happy, sad, angry, depressed, loved, unloved, and anxious.
I feel all of these at the same time.

How?
How does that even happen?
How can I be both happy and sad, loved and unloved,
and angry yet depressed?

I am confused.

Yesterday went downhill and I need something to help it stop from getting any worse. Obviously, what I am doing isn't helping.

Any suggestions would be awesome!

It just doesn't seem normal to me. I am all of these.

Happy: I feel like everything is going to be okay.
Maybe happy isn't quite the right word for it.
It is probably better to just say that I am optimistic.

your bones
are shining,
as you look
at them,
you feel defeated
because you
lost to your
worst nemesis.
cancer.

In the slug-fest between Ego’s
Love is knocked out of the heart’s arena
What remains, is the bruised and bloodied individual
Where the referee proclaims the two, ‘Defeated’ by ‘Knock-out’*

I think most people are two dimensional,
and for the most part, exhausting.
There's a hole somewhere;
in my head? in my chest?
I can't, no matter how hard I try, fill it.
I can't stuff it full of god, or **** it away,
no accomplishment or achievement,
impulse purchase, fashionable consumption...
It's a void that not even light can escape.
It only ever goes away because you
might stop thinking about it sometimes,
but you'd feel it deeper than your bones,
on a cellular level. Boiling on the inside.
Everything is overshadowed by death
or futility. Everything is defeatable.
Easily defeatable.
I asked you if you feel it too.
You said nothing.
