Disconnection.

It's the sort of feeling where you feel that you could vanish in an instant and things would be the same. I'm not saying that I need to make an impact with whatever action I do - hell no.

It's the sort of situation where they're in front talking and you've got no idea or connection with what they're saying - disconnected. Trying hard to look like I'm part of them, with all the false smiles and laughter that I can't seem to get out in truth. It hurts when you know you're part of a blanket or string that ties two or more people together in friendship, yet you know you've got to break away because staying as a part of that blanket makes you feel like you shouldn't be a part of it. Like an old patch on a fresh white blanket.

I couldn't stomach any dinner tonight after going out. I felt so horrible inside all the way, through my own silence, through the movie and through the supermarket where I just wanted to be alone by myself. I wanted to go home, give my movie ticket to someone who wanted it and just be alone. I tried to hypnotise myself silently with recurring tunes in my head. I could hear conversations where I didn't know what they were talking about. I wished I could've become invisible and cry at some points in time, yet I tried so hard to appear normal when it felt like someone was turning a screw in my heart. I bit my lips to stop myself and my gums still it bled.

The movie felt more like a break from a heart-rending experience - and when I knew it was going to end I prayed hard that I could bear just a few more moments before I could cough up the excuse that I had to go home for dinner when I never do so unless out of pure desperation.

And then there was the MRT ride home. It hurt again, but at least I was alone. It's funny isn't it - to so many people it feels warm and fuzzy to be around the people you love; they love you back in return and you feel loved and everything's comfy. I wish I could've felt that feeling as a genuine one for once in my life. I wish I could've been born more normal and not someone who genuflects and reflects and is just so damned sensitive to everything it can kill me inside when I see this or that happening.

It's not paranoia. Do I really fit in? I'm sorry if I tried to fit myself in, but it's hurting me. Trying to get a circular screw inside a line. I miss the times past, yet the present pain makes everything hurt so badly. I wish so badly that I could've fit in, because you're such wonderful and nice people I could love.

I wish I could've liked to do an ambitious card routine or jog cards.

I wish I could've pointed at that custom t-shirt and smile with warmth in my heart.

I wish I could unfreeze that frostbite that hurts inside.

Dearest Lord, your punishment is fitting. I pay for my sins in due. Leave me to sleep and let my wounds heal now, for I have served my sentence.

  1. I feel like a oddball sometimes. Maybe the feeling is the same as how you feel. IDK.

    It sucks to be sensitive to everything. You become especially mindful with all you words and actions and hence you lose all the human in you.

    Everyone is unique and you've got to accept yourself Thats what i've learnt so far. It ain't an easy fact for a sucker like me to swallow. Still having troubles. Don't be like others.

    You don't have to like ambitious card routine. You don't have to smile at the t-shirt.
    You can do fantastic fans.
    You can hum the tunes from scores.
    You don't have to try to fit in; You're already in.

    Focus a little more on the positive aspect. (:
