I called you as a cry for help
You sat there and talked about your day as I sat in silence
I called you and you didn't listen to me, or you I guess you did, you just didn't really hear me
You could hear my heavy sighs, I know you could picture the tears running down my face
But you didn't care
You don't understand the suffocating feeling anxiety will give you
"Why are you crying?"
"Whats wrong?"
"You're fine."
I can hear you when you say these words to me
I swear I can
But they mean nothing to me
... they mean nothing to my anxiety
My anxiety doesn't care that there is no reason to cry
that there is actually nothing wrong
or that I'm fine
Anxiety will give you 1,000 reason to cry and 1,000 things that are wrong, and 1,000 reasons why you are not fine
How depressing is it that in a world full of opportunities, I see every one of them as something to overthink
I worry you'll leave me for this

I'm in a four corner room
Lying,
All I can see is a light from my phone
and the rest is nothing
Wondering and thinking
a thoughts and things
that are slowly killing me

I believe that there is no such thing as fragile heart.
I realized that it is always on the mind.
On our minds.

Our brains process all the things we see and hear.
We tend to overthink
And collect insecurities
From the people we look up to.

It is not my heart that is fragile,
It is my mind.

You just had to
go ahead and
make me remember
why I wanted to
stop talking to you
in the first place.

Yes, i have friends
...or do i?
you see, there is a difference between having friends
and having someone you eat your lunch with
...or is there?
no, no, no, let's not doubt ourselves
let's not overthink things
...or are we?
nonetheless, at least you have someone
it's better than having none at all
...or is it?
I'm lonely, aren't I?
i'm wasting my smiles, my stories, even probably my breath
with people who will never care
...or will they?
does this normally happen to anyone?
that even amidst a group of people
one could still feel very alone
that even when you knew them for sometime now
they still feel like strangers
...or is this just all in my head?

you
don’t
have to battle
everything that life
throws you.

sometimes,
it’s
better not to draw your sword,
better not to pull up your shield,
to put all of your defenses down.

because at the end of that battle
you’ll realize
it wasn’t yours to begin with.

you were in the playing field
but you were never part of it.
i havent been able to write anything recently. and i apologize for that.

here’s something i wrote a few days ago while i was trying to battle my anxiety and overthinking  self.

hope you all have a great week.

Are you thinking right now?
I guess you are
Was your decision worth it?
Or was it the worst you've ever made?

It seems like you're thinking about things
over and over and over again
Every detail every scenario every little thing
You can't bring back the past, can you?

What if you try something
Will that ever change anything?
Will it change your current state?
Will it be worth your choice?

You can't even decide between two things
Whether you're gonna go or not
What if that decision was the worst
And the other was the best

Lonely, you're fed up by thoughts
Constantly analyzing and ever wondering
the mistakes you've made
And up until now, you're still thinking about it.

Two perspectives of two words
that people's perspective think it's just one.
Two words that make everything
seem like nothings happened

When I feel like they care
and when I feel like I matter
When actually they don't
and when actually I don't

I thought about it
is it worth their time
Are their eyes openly blind to see
Or are their ears loudly deaf to hear

The screech of emotions in me
Internally screaming the words
The words that kept me from
being me

I don't think I need to tell them
It doesn't matter anyway
With a smile I say
I'm fine
I like red
