Just Enough To Hurt

Just Enough To Hurt

In a conversation I had with a poet on this site by the name of "Curious Onlooker" these were his words (mostly), they were so profound but he wouldn't post it so I will in his stead in a revised version haha I hope you enjoy. 

I'm 22 with no clue

Were that I could

Walk the same walk as everyone else

To some miNUTE degree I would

But I feel it all, I see it all

And yet still to my despair

I don't retain it all

Just enough to keep me mad

And this is why I'm not the same

I'm always some curious onlooker

Observing closely yet not close enough

To be a part of the world

I was never cut from the same cloth

And that'll forever be a knife

In my chest, pushing into my heart

But not deep enough to kill me

Just enough to keep me alive

And wanting

I've never had friends,

I've never had family

And now I'll never have peace

For as long as I live I'll remain

But a fraction not enough to be whole

Just enough to be there

"Not cut from the same cloth"

I too feel so confused. I don't get how life works. How is it people find more money than me yet don't seem to be doing any harder work than me? I've tried working harder; didn't work. I've tried working smarter; also didn't work. I don't smoke, drink, gamble or run a car... still their bank accounts are full while mine is empty. I desperately crave to be a generous soul but animals don't want to eat the food I offer and humans reject my gifts. I love my son yet life took him from me, while they neglect and abuse their kids and still get to keep them--why?

LOL - all I see is chaos making no rational sense

I get it. I totally get the onlooker. 

Sometimes I think there is a karmic dharma system and I was born to be a priest (totally dependent like a baby on the system and not own riches). I think it's meant to be a blessing but often it feels like a curse.

Love That Kills

Love That Kills

I miss the way my heart could love

For the ones I waited for

But ripped my heart from flesh...

My mind is racing at a million miles

Per second

Some part of me must know I'm gone
