Talking to Oneself

What are you waiting for?

Write

Whats on your mind?

Say it

SAY IT

I don't want to be like everybody else

I do not understand why?

Why do people feel the need to belong?

Why do people feel the need for acceptance?

Is it because.. No man is an Island?

Is that really true?

You do realize that…. If you thread this part

You would be forever alone….

Can you handle that?

Can you handle being an outcast?

Can you handle loneliness?

I don't know…

I don't really know…

But… all I know is…

If I don't try … I wouldn't know

I don't even know if I have full resolve over this matter

I mean I know I take pride at being "different"

I always get labeled as weird

However, why do I cave in when they try and make me conform to their ways?

Do I feel that lonely?

Maybe Im scared

Of being alone

No

It's not that

I'm scared that when I die, I'd die alone

With no one besides me

I cannot say I am not afraid of death

However, what I'm quite sure of is

It would be really terrible feeling

To die alone…

Or at least... making your mark…

I want to be remembered

I want people to remember me

BUT, if youre to thread in this path,

That possibility is inevitable.

You must have perseverance

Can you handle the pressure…

Are you THAT strong?

Or are you really, just as you suspect

Only pretending to be strong

Tell me

Is your strength truly a farce?

What is strength but a farce?

It's all an act

Imagine yourself being in a theater…

And you're the lead actor of your life.

And the director of your life says you must be strong…

So you act on it.

HOLD IT.

Hold your strength.

MAKE IT YOU

Let it not be a farce

So that

When pressure comes

You can handle it

You can handle being alone

That is of course

If you truly desire this path

Do you really want to be different?

Is that even a question worth asking yourself?

OF COURSE IT IS

Then take hold of your resolve

And never let go.
