What is the Norm?
Dear me,
There is a never-ending thought going around
I don't understand
Is it normal to feel this way?
Every time I try to hang out with friends,
it doesn't feel right
My brain is trying to comprehend,
but my heart has already decided
My brain says they are your friends
you should talk to them more
tell them how you are feeling
they should understand;
but my heart says they are your friends
why are they acting that way
it's time to leave them
they don't seem like they will miss you anyway
Lately, I've been thinking,
My friends do care about me
My friends have done nothing wrong to me
My friends are my friends
they have a friend like behavior
but, why do I have these terrible thoughts?
My heart tells me that if I leave them,
I can find friends that understand my discomfort
My brain is telling me they have done nothing wrong
why do you have to do that?
If I just told them my feelings then everything should be okay
I've tried to once,
but it didn't work
in the end, It made me feel even worse
I can't really open up about anything
some say they don't care
other says it's not their business
But they don't understand what's harming them
For a year now I have tried
but I just feel like giving up
all signs point to new friends
but they are all in my head
In the end,
I shouldn't be making new friends to replace them
I just need to make more friends
Making more friends will hopefully help me open up
more about my feelings
talking to them about whatever topic is on my mind
I wish one day that can be possible
but as of now it is only a mere thought
that is going around and around
when will it stop?
