If I were to visualise the internals of my brain, it's
pretty darn simple. I open up the top half of my skull and in it, I see a brain
- of course - and I see a plain white nothingness right in the centre of it all
and at the edges of the oval-shaped brain, I see some active redness. The
redness are the creativity in me striving to come out and overwhelm the plain
whiteness but when, what seems like 92% of my brain is just wilting away, the
active redness is starting to turn a shade of pinkish-purple. But, look at me
trying, trying very hard to just jumble up a few strings of words.
In the past two months, I have written very few, unlike the
typing mechanism I usually am. I have sent a few articles to work and then
shortly recalled them back and didn't give them publishing rights. I have been
very disappointed with what I have been writing. I am in a state of
nothingness, in a state of disappearing. I breathe in and out like a normal
person would do, but inside me, there is no flame burning for me. There should
be flame burning in everyone.
I am writing now because I need to write. I have to force
myself to write. I can't die now. I am overcoming the plain whiteness. I cannot
let it defeat me. The only reason why I feel like I am in dark murky water is
solely because I haven't been writing and any writer can tell you that is how
they feel when they don't write for a long stretch of time. It is not because
they don't want to write, if anything, I want to get back to writing so badly
but you know, when I am whining all the time about how I feel so depressed, I
fail to see myself as an impressive human being and for me to be able to elucidate
my emotions, I need to feel all sorts of awesomeness! Besides, no one wants to
read about depression.
I have been whining like a major bitch and gentleman has
been absurdly amazing in handling me. I have been crying all the time, because
that is what I do best. I cry a lot and often. Everyone should cry. I am very
emotional. I like to think I am 10 times more emotional than anyone and I like
to think it's true. If I am happy, I am 10 times happier than anyone has been
and if I am sad, I am 10 times as sad. I feel too much and trust me, I want to
be the kind of person who doesn't give a fuck about anything but I am the
person who thinks too much and too aloud. If I choose to go silent, people get
worried because a loud person like me never stays quiet for too long and if I
talk it out, my thoughts and words are not nice. I want to be the person who
can just stay calm but I can't be her. If something doesn't go in my way, I
throw a bitch-fit. I have always been this person and I will always be her.
You can't blame me either. It's self-preservation of some
kind and a defence mechanism. I am a hermit crab with soft insides and hard
outer cover. And I think it is because gentleman knows this that's why he is so
tolerant of me. It's not his problem that I can't control my emotions but he
makes half of my whole problem his and he apologises for me. I know I can do
better than just use him however I want to. I have so much teenage angst in me.
I had such an easy time growing up unlike most. I didn't get heart breaks, was
a good student and good at everything I put my hands in (except maths but even
that went fine) and I didn't have body issues like 99.99999% of teenage girls,
not that I was fit and slim. I had hair issues because I couldn't tame my fizzy
hair but I just tied it up in a bun and
lived life and didn't let it hold me down and over time, my unruly hair
suddenly became one of the best features in me. What I am having here, is a
post-teenage angst in me.
A few days ago, I decided what I wanted to do with life and
I finally felt well and alive. I feel so good right now that I walked to the supermarket
yesterday and swung my grocery bags in twirls as I walked with an oomph in
every step I took. I even sang songs aloud, whenever I thought I was alone. I
feel recovered now but I don't see the bitch-fit throwing person going anywhere
because I have a man in my life who loves me even when I am crying and so lost.
With love,
Genisha
Yayyy!!! Genisha is once again 'Living'. Pardon me for my poor representation of expression. Really, I need to learn a lot from you. The way you express yourself through writing. I envy you.
