Against the Storms
I look like a girl who’s perfect from the outside.
Pretty, ig.
Smart,
Kind
Healthy relationship
Helpful,
Great at so much, etc.
All according to people.
But in my heart, I feel the opposite.
I just feel lucky with those things.
But not with my emotions.
Someone told me I act like my dad.
Not a bad thing I guess.
But they meant the fact I’m narcissistic,
“I’m not wrong”
“I just get angry because I can’t process it normally” side.
I realized something.
I’m just like that.
Sure I try to process it.
But I can’t realize it until it’s too late.
Do I talk about myself too much,
Or am I too quiet.
I do look at the times where I was.
I’m going to apologize for it,
Soon I promise.
I never mean to hurt anyone.
I’m just too late to apologize.
Maybe it’s just me.
I hate feeling like this.
I hate questioning my emotions and opening up.
I hate it so much.
Basically what I’m trying to say is.
I may seem perfect in public.
But I feel like I’m battling 10 hurricanes,
11 tornados,
A blizzard,
And a volcanic eruption.
All at once.
I’m sorry I hurt so many people.
I’m sorry I couldn’t do enough, or did too much.
I’m sorry to myself.
For those days, I didn’t feel like it was me.
That ignoring it would make it better.
That doing that would make it easier.
But it didn’t.
Maybe this is karma.
How much lower can I go when I’m already at rock bottom.


i'm sorry you're going through a tough time. without having any context i just want to say that we all hurt people and working through it and trying to do better is really all we can do. don't be too hard on yourself.
