I have great potential that I will likely never reach; my brilliance will go to waste. The smallest failures frustrate me greatly and cause me to loose sight of what is important. I have doubts about everything - I lie and claim I do not. I day dream about what it would be like to be someone else.
I walked a circle around town today holding onto nothing. I had no idea where I was going, only where I had been.
That was my morning.
I decided to do something today, so I went to a party. I don't like the party atmosphere because I feel as if I have nothing to contribute. I don't enjoy much of anything that goes on - most of the activities actually irritate me or stand against my values. So I stood to the side remaining a ghost.
Occasionally while walking around it would get crowded, so I would let people go first ahead of me all the time. I figured I wasn't going anywhere.
People approached me and I approached people, eventually leading to awkward conversations about current events and ridiculous happenings. Throughout all of the conversations I had a single thought burrowing in my mind: I wonder what my life and mind will be like when I'm 80.
That was my day.
Fifteen minutes ago, while everyone else was sleeping or partying, I was sitting outside planning my life for my future kids.
I sit outside and think, then come inside and write. Sometimes, I look into my screen and my depth perception goes away and I lose the sensation of where I am sitting. Even when I am not searching or looking or typing. Just sitting.
That was my night.
I'm out of my mind.

Of everything I've accomplished and everything I'm capable of, the only things I've ever wanted will only exist in my head.
