There’s a fear inside
Buried in and amongst the lies
Hidden resiliently behind the denial
And held abruptly before my eyes
At the most inappropriate of times…
It whispers that the reason for this
The reason you insist
Is only because I’m a twisted excuse for the person I could have been
That you’re there to view and enjoy what’s there, as opposed to what you could have seen
That your fingers clutch to this image, this hopeless being
Because it’s the only version you ever want to see
And that if I ever manage to breathe, if my mind enlightens and I am full of hope
You’ll resent the smiles, and demand to know why I made it so
That you preferred the broken shell, that its fractures made it stand out from the crowd
That you begrudge this high soaring belief, and favour the one that was underground
Too ashamed to traverse, too introverted to step out
The one immersed in its self loathing and paranoid doubt
And if there’s nothing left to heal, if you’ve nothing left to do
That you’ll turn to someone else, someone who you’ll believe to need you

The thing is... "if" is never concrete. An "if" remains an "if" until it becomes an "is" or and "isn't," and until then, "if" is nothing more than exactly that.
You can never know.
But... although it's important to acknowledge and understand the possibility of pain in the future, you also have to acknowledge the equal possibility of pleasure, and altogether, do you think it makes sense to let the possibility of pain and failure to be your motivation, or the possibility of pleasure and success?

"Never sit and wait for death... Never waste a single breath..."
yh... inheritence. that sounds... terrible. I seem to also have inherited my mum's personality, but only in the way that she can stand pressure, emotional and such, and won't be bothered much by others, always placing others before her.
perhaps selfishness is good sometimes.
people tend to treat her below them, and she's been in this violent marriage for man, many years, and has never gotten out of it.
i guess i fear this could happen to me too. ¬¬
n e hu, thanks for the fave, also ^ ^

"Never sit and wait for death... Never waste a single breath..."
heh, i don't know if it makes sense generally, because rationality disagrees...
but it certainly makes more sense to me to let the possibility of pleasure and sucess be my motivation.
which is what i'm doing.
atleast if i drive myself into the sun, I'll only have myself to blame. ¬¬

"Never sit and wait for death... Never waste a single breath..."
especially when added to my existing paranoia and need to worry about everything.
