I cry because I have given up.
I shout, as I can't find the words to say.
I hide, though I want to be seen.
I whisper, though I want to be heard.
I ignore, but my heart is still listening.
I break things, 'cos the love is broken.
I smile, to disguise the pain.
I frown, 'cos i envy others happiness.
I hate, because i'm scared to care.
I lie, because the truth hurts.
I imagine, to forget reality.
I hurt, because no one's there.
And I dream, 'cos I wonder, if it could be?
But i'm all misunderstood, you see.

reminds me of a quote I heard

Decide to be fine until the end of the week. Make yourself smile because you’re alive and that’s your job. Then do it again the next week. I call it being professional. Do it right. With a smile. Or don’t do it.”

Great porm

hope to read more soon

someone organizes somewhere, and secretly we suppose, so even if they put it somewhere that makes decent sense, still no one will know, just where to look.
Like anything, like asking what the variables pre - supposed are to be place holders for, instead of the quick answer, we are schooled by the premise that says we should fully read about how the equation was set up, math, school, work, even play, and do we know, how to operate such and such on both sides of such equation? That's not why we reach out for guidance in the first place maybe. BTW, maybe that's not what we were attempting to do in the first place.
I feel this sort of human dichotomy all the time. Where the problem becomes only mine, and yet not something I rationally feel should be given to only me. The data is gibberish to me, and when I ask for help, people only ask; where did the data come from and why> and even if I say I don't know the answer to either question , which quite earnestly be absolutely true, I'm asked what questions did I ask that would make the data understandable.
I had no idea, I only have some data that makes no sense, and I share it willingly. Then, they say, it could mean a lot of things, it might have something to it, this data that no one else can tell by looking at it, so they offer up qualified suggestions, and they surmise more than the help I first sought to bring to their own private ears in the very first place.
See, I went to them first, so they might understand that I myself am perplexed, and I do want empathy, I want them just say that this is confusing, and then I suppose I just want them to say, forget about it, you can't solve it anyway.
What ever the problem is, it is still a problem to me.
I think everyone is misunderstood, I have been there, even in my finest moments I have been there, I've stored it away somewhere that should make a lot of sense not only to me but to others, where, even I can't say. Is it OK, not to understand, I opine, do you?
Peace!

Peace!
