The Norm After the Storm
Folder:
March 2013 Wish you had courage to stop me from
turning into the monster that i've become,
all the times i felt like nothing,
would be replaced by moments feeling like something,
they always have everything and i have zilch,
it's like they're all neat freaks that see me as filth,
well i made the bed i sleep in, no regrets,
i know who i am so the rest of the world won't forget,
my words will be here long after i've expired,
like a batting average lasts long after the player retired,
well you are that average, and i've lost my form,
sinking in the quicksand everyone calls the norm,
same routine and i keep fighting to leave it,
just like she quickly left me, still can't believe it,
wish you had the courage to change my past present
and future instead of soaring back into heaven.
i like this poem
No, resist, come back. You're better than the norm. you know who you are, where as the norm isjust one big monotonous blob.
the norm is unhealthy, even
the norm is unhealthy, even if its needed for a short amount of time to fall back into the groove of things
for the record, this is one of my favorite poems ive ever written, all true and nonstop scratching of my pen against paper. exhilarating!
thanks for the read and comment :)
can you hear me now?
you're welcome! :) and when
you're welcome! :)
and when you get out of the norm, after it's sucked you in for a bit, you're always on the edge of the norm pit for a while, in danger of falling in. so it takes a strong person to make their way out of the norm.
the pit we fall in is only as
the pit we fall in is only as deep as we allow it
can you hear me now?
hmmm...wise words. never
hmmm...wise words. never thought about that. but what about the other people that are dragging you deeper into it, or forcing you down into it?
only by using the brutal and
only by using the brutal and unrelenting honesty. sucks for the person but they will secretly be thankful for it
i know from experience, i have unfortunately pulled people into my pit and ruined my image to them
can you hear me now?
ohkay, so be completely
ohkay, so be completely honest? well, i'm definitely not good at that.....but if it works out in the end. i guess i can try.
so what i'm getting from this is that i shouldn't try to pull people into my pit. but my pit is different from the norm pit. so i'm all alone in my pit
?
dont worry about pulling
dont worry about pulling people into your pit. someone can love you and want to be anywhere with you, even if it means at the bottom of your pit.
i wouldn't really take my advice though, kind of the wrong person to ask
can you hear me now?
