As the title may have suggested it really is late. I'm tired and hungry... but I'm also conflicted.
For the past year- maybe even longer, I have been consistently numb. No, it is not an exaggeration, it is fact. At least thats what I decided.
How do I know?
Well you don't really exactly know, but more like you feel. Ironic how you feel numb when you can't feel anything else at all.
I mean I'm not completely emotionless.
I can interact with others the same way you do, I can laugh and joke. I can smile and do what you'd assume a normal person does.
But through it all, there always is this void empty feeling where I assume my heart would be. Even though I display emotions on the outside, I feel nothing on the inside.
I don't feel the same way I used to before. When I felt whole, even though I was sad at times, at least I felt something inside.
It's different now. Is that normal?
I no longer enjoy the things I used to love. The things that would make me happy.
I have no dream or purpose that drives me to wake up every single morning.
I don't have any point to live for.
I'm not suicidal.. At least not anymore. Even when I was, there was still a feeling in my chest. Nothing is the same anymore.
Living hollow and purposeless really takes a toll on you. I don't exactly feel helpless, but I don't exactly feel okay either.
I live life without any dreams or goal, and I watch everyday as people around me with dreams and aspirations achieve what they want to.
Why can't I be the same? Why don't I have a dream like everyone else? Why don't I have something to live for?
And I mean something to truly live for.
I probably sound so confusing right now.
Maybe.. If I were to sum up exactly how I feel into words.. It would probably be
I live because I can't die.
