Chasing stars
Have you ever seen an airplane and think of the people inside? Think about where they are going, how excited they are, who are they going to meet, the fun that they will have? You'll just lay there with your eyes fixed in the sky and watch it as it glide away with the clouds.
Have you ever thought that whatever you're feeling right now, a lot of people are feeling the same way too? Bewildered, angry, confused, perplexed, hurt, heart-broken. We're all humans and I reckon many have felt these feelings before.
Have you ever felt so rejected? Without someone even rejecting? Because your mind tells you that you are, even if it's not really justified?
Have you ever broke down and just cry? Because of the thought of losing someone you really love and how sad your life would be without them? How all those lovely memories will eventually become memories and then the tears will start trickling down your cheeks and you start to feel like the most worthless person in the universe? And all of a sudden you feel so empty and hurt and it makes you sick in the stomach?
Have you ever missed someone so much? To the point that you just break down and cry? That you had to constantly tell yourself they're fine and so are you?
Have you ever wished that your life is better than it is right now? How you wish everything is in place. And how you wish you could fix anything with a snap of your finger?
I don't know about you, but I have. Thoughts are always racing throughout my mind like atoms in a boiling water - no clear direction, and forever colliding into one another. I have always wished for things to be better but sadly the world is not a wish-granting factory. "Life goes on" they say. But what if you've been fighting for it for so long? Are you just going to give in that easily? I've always had this burning and constant desire to pack my bags, book a plane ticket, go far away and never look back.
You know that mood when you are floating between happy and sad? I'm failing to settle on either, both seeming too far from my reach.
