I’ve drunk to the point of nausea
the deepness of my soul
And still I force myself to drink
The incessant need for togetherness,
More alone than a single blade grass,
Relationships that need foreverness,
As fused as are the grains of sand in glass.

Relentlessly seeking love through giving,
From an abyss of generosity,
To connect with loving souls is living,
With such self-proclaimed virtuosity.

To be close is just to make someone feel,
To give just to elicit emotion.
And love returned for giving is the deal
Like a returning pendulum’s motion.

This instinct brings innocents elation.
Why does it reek of manipulation?

When every window is a mirror,
When you cannot see real life as it is,
When you think the world shows yourself clearer,
Then that reflection of you is amiss.

When how you feel is how you think you are,
When abandonment makes you run away,
When your own anger leaves you with the scar,
Then it’s you who are the one you betray.

When the same brokenness repeats itself,
When the same cries of resentment are spilled,
When unable to see blame in yourself,
Then your prophecy becomes self-fulfilled.

When you accept you have goodness inside,
When you forgive and accept affection,
When you let yourself be loved from outside,
Then at last you will see your reflection.
Poem about Enneagram Type Fours who identify with their feelings so strongly that they push others who want to love them, but may have hurt them, away.

It's so sad
Being a three wing two
If they'd give you the moon
I'd give you the entire galaxy

It's so sad
Being a three wing two
Because deep down I know
Only the moon would make you happy

It's so sad
Being a three wing two
Having no idea what to do
With the galaxy I just got you
It hurts to be conscious of who you are, but I guess it's better this way.
