this was the single saddest moment in my life, I haven't thought or felt the same since this night and Im not sure I ever will...
I was out one night with a close friend,
it was wonderful, I trust her... I think she sees through my eyes, she looks at life like I do...
I can truly open up to her and share my most personal feelings without doubting her or myself for that matter...
As we were talking about my life and some troubles I had been dealing with, she asked me questions... at the end of our conversation and our cup of coffee, I drove her home and then to my house. I layed down in bed and tears started to fall endlessly, my heart just crumbled.
Our conversation played over and over in my head... I wanted anything to keep it quiet, to push it away , but the more I tried the louder I could hear it.
She asked me why I lowered myself just to hurt by the people I loved most. I pondered on that question for a while... and the truth was... I didn't know.
she told me I needed more, that I was capable of finding happiness in other things.
why did she think I was unhappy? is that what I seem like I asked? She told me she could see it in my eyes, and in the way I spoke and even the way I carried myself. She said she feels like shes watching me self-destruct.
As our conversation went on she asked me the one single question that hangs over my heart till this very moment...
she asked me if I could see myself with someone who could love me for me? I looked out into the cars that passed by the window of the coffee shop , as I sat in silence not wanting to look her in the eye and face up to the truth, she asked me once more...
At that moment I let all pride and respect for myself go. I hung my head down , took a deep breath and simply told her that no.
I had explinations, more like excuses ... but I couldn't find it in me to let out another word.
I let my tears stream down my face, I could taste the salt on my lips and the mascara dripping in my eyes. I felt so little, so worthless... I felt so empty.
I walked out of there with a new realization in my life, and a new outlook on myself, but do you think I changed.... I can't. I can't seem to find it in me to get up and walk away. I know he doesn't care, I know he doesnt love me, I know Im nothing in his eyes... I will never be any of that and for some reason Im still here. I have had moments of feeling important, but not really in my heart...
I wish I knew something different...
 
i know the desolation that you feel.
i feel it as though i have seen a picture that i can never "unsee". i have no answers, as they are within each of us....but i do know that these feelings (after 2-3 years in my case) DO SUBSIDE.
gradually the good things start overpowering all the shit, and you do start beleiving them...
i know just from the way you put things so beautifully into those words (made me cry) that you're something spesh...
 
I walked out of there with a new realization in my life, and a new outlook on myself, but do you think I changed.... I can't. I can't seem to find it in me to get up and walk away.
i know how that is. you have this great realization, you know what you have to do in life now, but actually doing that is so hard. and for me, it usually never happens.
this is great writing, and i truly hope that things get better for you. but you must know that for things to get better for you, you have to help them get better. as much as it seems that you can't do anything to help yourself, just try to do things you enjoy or like. if you always act lonely and sad, then you WILL BE lonely and sad. but hell, if you act more cheerful and happy at times (though it may be hard - you have to LET yourself feel that way) then you'll put out a more positive vibe.
don't slouch when you walk. walk with your head up. don't sell yourself short and always believe in yourself - because if you don't, then no one else will. you've only got one life, so you might as well make it fun and worth it. and if you don't love yourself, then you'll find it is nearly impossible to have anyone else love you or for you to really love anyone else. remember that no one is perfect and we all make mistakes in life. there is ALWAYS time to change and turn your life around.
sorry for all of the cheesy inspirational words, but sometimes everyone needs to hear them. and while even i say these words i don't always live by them because, as we both know, it is hard. but when i can, i try to take the opportunity to make my life better by making myself happy. remember - that your life is only as good/bad as YOU see it.
