Stony Silence :.

How can you miss someone when they’re sitting right next to you?

At times I feel invisible, or as if I’m just this giant useless teddy bear sitting there.. Like I have no relevance or point of existence.. I’m just there

It makes me feel so angry and sad at the same time. And yet all I can do is stay silent, because is there really a point to say anything?

I don’t know how many times I’ve ridden gunshot with someone, and during the whole car ride, I never utter a word because I don’t have to.. the other person is constantly on the phone, or has nothing to say to me. Or if there’s anything to say, it just opens a whole can of worms better left untouched, and I get hurt all over again, fresh wounds to add to the ones already weeping, and the ones that have formed scars..

Sometimes I feel like an extra appendage.. superfluous.. of no use to anyone. And I’m really losing my head here, because I’m starting to lose myself.. I used to have dreams.. and now I’m not sure, or I’ve forgotten what it’s like to want something so bad.. or to have a goal to chase.

I am lost. I’ve said before, I didn’t need anyone. Maybe the real truth is.. no one needs me. I’m just the extra.. Nobody special.. Not worth noticing.

It would be merciful to just sleep in peace.

  1. Dear Alexis

    I abhor to say this but I’m going to say it anyway.

    You were born to live, and *that* has a meaning.

    Take good care of yourself.

  2. And I have to say – I miss you.
