that feeling


Do you ever feel as if you cannot breathe in the middle of the woods yet you're surrounded by the growing air? The feeling you get after chugging cold water after a hot, Sunny morning jog yet you still have that itching feeling? The feeling you get when you're in the middle of a room with thousands of people yet you still feel unseen, Unheard, and Unloved? The feeling you get when you hear something you didn’t want to, So you convince yourself it just simply isn’t real? The feeling you get when you finally realize he doesn't love you, But someone else? The feeling you get when you want to rip the skin off your body because you don't like the way you are? The feeling you get when you see the white turn to dark red? The feeling you get waking up knowing it didn’t work, Again? The feeling you get when the realization sets in, that you’ll never get rid of this feeling. That you’ll live with it forever.
