I’m Feeling out of control with this self inflicted war raging inside of me
My thoughts are racing to keep in harmony with these erratic emotions
My Vision is blurry. I’m having trouble determining the difference between true or false.
Is it real or is my mind playing tricks on me?
I’m confused about which way to go
Right or Left
Up or Down
My GPS reads “Signal Lost”
I’m pleading with myself
Which way should I go?
I’m at a crossroad
Trying to articulate my thoughts but I’m blinded by a cloud of confusion
My gut is applying pressure to ACT
My heart is screaming HURT
My ears are listening to a faceless voice whispering “STAND STILL”
I’m FROZEN in place
But to those around me I’m constantly in motion
I’m A living facade
I’m a living mannequin
Living in a comfortable state of being uncomfortable
So Desperately needing a change
Yet paralyzed and unable to make any changes
I’m Robotic
Programmed to fit in with the socially accepted norms
Only I’m not normal
I’m invisibly lonely in a circle of people
I am living comfortable in a state of being uncomfortable

Another thought provoking piece. These words were taken from the deepest parts of my being as I can relate to each word. It is definitely time to get uncomfortable with being comfortable. The growth is in self awareness, self love and pushing through however that looks for you. I’m ready to take off the mask. This was beautifully written.
