Thoughts Of A Loser

I sit around with a frown feeling sorry for myself
I need help, but I won't ever ask for it, understand
Either I will be strong enough to survive
Or I will die by my own hand...
The latter seems inevitable to me
Maybe not now, but eventually

Sometimes it seems I'm jealous of my own family
They seem so happy, why can't that be me???
But I could never have anything against them
Right now, they're some of my only friends

And her, shes so sweet...
I wonder if this is what it feels like to have a sister
I don't know what she truly thinks of me, but I miss her
I wish we could hang out more, but she would never know
Because my true feelings she could never explore

I'm like a treasure chest with no key
My insides are forever locked
So you may never know me
at least not personally...
Because it seems paper is the only thing I trust
and the pen is my closest friend
It will be my only friend in the end...
The tool with which I relay my last message

When the time comes, God, will we meet???
Or will you send me below because I didn't believe???
But it doesn't matter I guess
Because I'm quite sure that you don't exist...
But what if I'm wrong & you do...
then what will I do???
In my last moments, will I cowar & turn to you???
I guess all of this is unanswerable for the moment...

I wanna better myself, but I won't ask for help
So maybe I've set myself up for defeat
But sometimes I feel I've already lost you see...

We are here for a purpose. Trust. You say you want to better yourself. In serving others we find gratification. And in asking for help we give others the opportunity to serve. We are all interconnected, so I would invite you to reach out and things will change.
The message comes through clearly.

Love,
Margherita

You write thoughts of a loser but I don't think that's you.

Ain't life grand sometimes when you can look at things from different perspectives.....

If ya can't hit a home run then hit a single or wait for a walk.

Good stuff! I enjoyed it. I just took a handful of valium and I'll be good for the night..........

Yo AlexG,

You don't need anyone to better your self.  

Check out that thing at the end of your right arm, that's the best helping hand you'll ever have.  Unless, of course, you're left handed.  Then check the thing at the end of your left arm.

I would never try to convert anyone. I think you can chose to be miserable if you want to. Free will and all that stuff.

Hi Alex,

Welcome to PIP

When I was a young man. I would express my emotions in writing, just like you do here.
This was a great help for me, it helped me ponder, define and comprehend those emotions.
It also probably also stopped me from acting on those emotions.


Rock-on buddy.
