Confusion
Why do I feel like this?
Why are my emotions so confusing to navigate?
Why can’t my heart,
or my mind,
agree?
Or even decide?
Nothing feels right.
I just want to be noticed
and seen
and loved
and appreciated.
Just
like
you.
Nobody seems to get me.
Nobody seems to see me.
Nobody seems to like me.
Nobody seems to empathize
or even
sympathize.
Life is so confusing.
Nothing makes sense
in
my
mind.
Why can’t my brain just be somewhat,
relatively, even slightly, “normal”?
I’m always passed off as
the “smart one”
I don’t get addressed by
my name
I am simply,
The Smart One.
I am so much more than
a brain.
I am a person, supposedly whole
Beautiful and loving and caring
Wanting to give my soul,
and patiently waiting to get
some kindness in return..
I know this probably sounds like I’m being
self-centered
But I’m trying here.
To balance my life with others and.
It’s.
Not.
Helping.
At all.
If someone would help me.
This would be so much easier and
I’d be of more use to others.
Please, help.
