I wish I had a friend. Someone to talk to. Someone to share my true feelings and thoughts.
I just want to be myself and say what I want to say and be accepted for that without having to feel like I'm burdening someone. Is that really too much to ask for in this world? I understand why and accept that I can't have that kind of friendship with you. Still I feel saddened by overwhelming loneliness. Everyday I am reminded that I am alone. I am reminded that I cannot share my thoughts. I cannot say what I need to say. I understand that it is not wrong to want or need attention. Simple human interaction is a basic social necessity. Yet I can't have that for myself.
I can't express myself through my social media or else people will think something is wrong with me. Which is true but I don't want people to know that about me. That's why I just want one person who can accept that part of me. But you said it was too much. You said that if I have a problem, talking to you about it was to make it your own problem and you couldn't handle that. I don't need to be someone's main priority. I needed to know that there existed a person that could accept me and my problems. I didn't need my problems to be fixed. I needed them to be heard. Maybe you knew that but still that was too much for you.
Regardless, I accept the reality of the situation which is that you cannot be that friend for me for personal reasons. I accept that what I want I cannot have in you. But then what am I left with?
A tiresome workplace. A classroom full of strangers. A parent that can't speak. A family with bigger problems. A dog. Is this where I find solace?
I've already accepted myself and learned to love myself. I just wanted to see acceptance and love from someone else.
