When you feel like you don’t fit in
don’t know where you belong
Feel like such an outcast
Been that way so long
It’s an ache that’s deep within your soul
A longing from deep inside
You wish that you could shake it
But the feeling won’t subside
You wonder where it all went wrong
Why you feel so lost
You search your life for the answer
But the wires all seem crossed
Go back to a time when things were right
When happiness flowed through your veins
When everything made sense to you
A life without the pains
Take back the you that you once were
Look it in the face
Where joy surrounded your everyday
And you knew you had a place
That belonging is still in you
It’s been there from the start
You pushed it aside long enough
But it never left your heart
Renew your life, reinvent yourself
For you and those around
Find the worth in all you do
Your place will surely be found
It’s fine to be different
It’s fine to be strange
It’s fine to be a little weird too
You really need not change for others
Or be sorry for being you
You have a place
You DO belong
You’ve known it from the start
In every smile of those you touch
You have a place in their heart
So search no more for where you fit in
You fit in EVERYWHERE
With those who really love you
And those who’ve always cared
Much love, G

I am complicated, confusing and misunderstood but I am real. Life is too short to be anything but happy.
Day 4 of Quitting
If this is how sobriety feels, maybe it’s better to go through life a little buzzed… this, along with other hits like, I want to kill myself, I wish I was dead, and I’m going to throw myself off a bridge have been the only thoughts on rotation these past few days. I promise myself that if, in a month, I still feel like this (‘this’ meaning despondent, full of rage, and simultaneously numb) I can go back to smoking. Until mid-February though? Nicotine is off the table.

beautiful heartfelt thoughts that say a lot about you and about those in your orbit. Let your freak flag fly. It"s so amazing when it flies high.
