Living up to the blue print.

 Sighs... I haven't written in weeks. It's probably not up to three weeks, but it feels eternal. 


Now, originally, I'm a poet. I write poems for the fun of it. I write because it's therapeutic. But lately, I see that I've lost my way. Lost myself in this mess that we call life. And I wonder each day how to keep on breathing, moving and working like the perfect picture I paint. 


Do you ever just feel like a fraud?—That you do not deserve everything you've built? 


I rarely feel comfortable in my own skin. And what's worse? This feeling keeps increasing more and more as I climb my way up to the top. It's a constant struggle between hate and love in my head. I myself can't fathom the reason behind this looming self-dissatisfaction. 


Could it be depression? I ask myself again and again. Why am I afraid of success? Is this a case of trauma? Or is it normal?


Ever felt this way?

 

XOXO
