I Didn't Give Up On Life, It Gave Up On Me

Trying to compose a letter. One that most likely will be ignored if its even recieved.

I write then just stop. Too much emotion. I want it to be blunt without being hurtful. Honest without being harsh.

I want it to mean something but i know i cannot write words of power and magic. Paint portraits for the blind. Compose music for the deaf..all while being blind and deaf yourself.

I give up. Our worlds touched momentarily. I lost a lot of myself when the walls went up. I dont know if you lost anything or even cared.

I cant help anyone anymore as i dont have the energy. None comes in.

Im old and tired. Life always wins in the end especially when you fight it all the time.

That's right. Let it out. It is like poison. And then you can slowly heal. It is a long, drawn out process. But, in the end, you win. You choose a new life.

@PoetryNEmotion im terrified of life. Its beat the hell out of me.

When i was a kid a friend had a dog who was mean and nasty. It scared me because it always looked about to kill me. Thats the same feeling i have now.

@SW-User you feel like that again? Fear of a person?

@SW-User Life can spin in another direction for you. It is a horrid feeling you have. I have told you what you must do. Work on it. A bit at a time. I know you can do this. I know. Love yourself enough to do this. You have time. It is never too late.
