Feelings of Nothing


you feel as if you are nothing, 

you feel as if you have to fit in with others in order for you to be and feel popular. 

but what is that word? Popular. 

you feel as if you are feeling empty like a bottle as if there is nothing in it, 

shallow, as the water hits the shores crashing the waves over and over again,

becoming powerful, but then all of a sudden weak. 

you feel as if nothing completes you, you are now one of the ¨Popular¨ kids at school 

or wherever you go to, but yet you feel as if something is still missing. 

what is that something?

that something is your feelings. 

you can no longer talk to anyone because you fear of being laughed at by the other 

popular people. 

you no longer feel safe in any way because you want to talk to somebody but the 

moment you do, something comes in and ruins your moment. 

well here is a little advice. 

Stop pretending like you don´t care, stop pretending that it doesn´t hurt you at night.

stop telling yourself that you don´t cry yourself to sleep. 

stop with all of the lies. 

that is the first step. 

the second step is to get back into the game. 

relive and take back the life that was stolen from you. 

they can no longer control you, you are your own person. 

you have the power now to stop and think to yourself, ¨what am i doing?.

why am i here? am i not good enough?¨ 

i have the answers for you. 

though i may not know who you are directly, i believe we all know each other 

somehow, in some way. 

you need to find that one person, even if its someone you rarely talk to and tell them about your day. ask them 

sbout there day first and then talk. 

second, you are here for a reason, God put you here for a reason, he did not put you 

here to throw your life away. 

and let me tell you, you are good enough, if you like a guy or a girl or whoever 

and they do not see the beauty inside yourself 

then you do not need them. 

you now feel as if you feel more better, 

you feel as if you are more calm, 

you feel as if all of your anger and sadness has been washed away with the waves of 

the ocean. 

us as human beings deserve more than what we get.
