The core of myself, or my self

I had to write something crazy.

It’s not enough. It’s not enough. Nothing is ever enough. 

The words are never enough, the feeling is never enough

And it’s like I’ll always just remain there, 

remain somewhere, 

remain inside a person that has the power to imagine and create and write and be something I’ll never be

Something I’ll never reach

And even now I’m longing to hold it

To yank it by its tail and wrap it and tie it around me until it dissolves into the very person that I do not know why or how it ended up here

The very person that will never be happy, enough

Never feel, enough

Never express, enough

Never even write, or speak or cry,

enough.

Never even know if it exists, or if it should exist

Or why it decided to write, anyway

I've got good news for you. You won't have to write this in heaven. Is it a good thing or is it not? Maybe you'll write it anyway. Now what goes there? Plz make a poem of it if you are up to it.

[Echoes of Eros]

You have released such a powerful desire in the seeking of life, of a world of joy or bliss around you. This is a fierce, free longing, and even in this sense of falling short, never having enough, it shows a ravenous hunger to live and write of your living. xo

I like the aspiration of 'never enough', because you realize, that's a unique moment in the brain's evolution. You won't be able to dream like that forever, which is a pity of the human life cycle I find. It's truly a beautiful fact that the youth make society progress, because of this push for more....so cherish it.

You are so right, and thank you for this lovely comment xx

Mirna, a beautiful poem wherein a deep existential dissatisfaction is expressed.

"..It’s not enough. It’s not enough. Nothing is ever enough.
The words are never enough, the feeling is never enough

...

Never even write, or speak or cry,
enough.
Never even know if it exists, or if it should exist
Or why it decided to write, anyway "

... words than speak for themselves, everything speaks for itself.

Sis sounds as if your are speaking to the core of your heart questioning all. I have a best friend gave me some advice she is my best friend:) She said focus on what you can change not what you cant change. There are so many things surround us that we cant change. Emotions we can change, fear we can change,thoughts we can change, happy or sad. We cant change a blue sky to a rainy day. We cant even change what a doctor may say. I loved your write be glad when we can speak again Sis:) Bless be:)
