Meaningless Title

I am okay
Truly okay
I don't need sympathy
But there's something I must say

I have to accept the truth I live
I have a accept I am alone
Before there's nothing left to give

I don't care if I'm too much
Or I mean nothing at all
I go without any touch
I hit the ground when I fall

I am done trying to understand
I just want to accept
Everything I planned
Was inept

No, no one will love me, its okay
They never did
And they won't start today

I'm not crying, my eyes stay dry
My heart is smiling
While my hopes let go and die

There's nothing to feel sorry for
I tried

I know I did, I gave it my best
If I'm supposed to give more
I can't pass that test

So don't feel sorry
I don't wither or rot
I continue being myself
Like it or not

This poem sucks
Nobody will care
I'm painfully aware
Just don't feel sorry for me
That's the last thing I need
No one will stay

And all my feelings push you further away.

Well written. I truly hope you find some happiness.
@SleepingWithGhosts I am finding happiness. Thank you.

It's complete surrender.

As to say, I have myself. Until my dying day my son has me too. We can do cool stuff. We can get through anything. And that's enough 🖤
This reminds me of the scene in castaway where after rowing for nobody knows how long, the main character lays down his oars. Let’s them float away. The man lays down and accepts his fate. When rescued he’s begging them to “kill me”. The rest is beautiful. The surrender. Just skip the last part.

When brought back to ‘life’ he sees the silliness of conventional culture and conveniences.

I haven’t hit the kill me stage yet, but I’ve stopped rowing. Maybe I’ll just sit beneath the stars and write poetry, poorly.
@Quoththeraven Surrender and understand you'll never be the same. We always struggle, we're fighters, even if for our own good.

This poem does not suck and there are those of us who do give a fuck.
