"why would you do if when you okay so he said yes would go" (a prompt by: jay jewel; based off a meme)
why do i write? [why does anyone, honestly?]
for what purpose do i [we] write?
to be heard? as a hobby?
self-expression?
to be understood
?
i believe i write for a multitude of reasons
i feel an obligation to write
to share
to exist
i do not think that anything i say truly matters
i am entitled to my opinion; as is everyone but,
my opinions do
my voice matter
my words not
my voice matter
my words not
would anyone even care to listen to what i have to say? does anyone?
no matter how much i write, i feel as if
everything i say goes unheard
unanswered
maybe it is owing to the topics i typically write about
owing to the fact that my muse are my negative emotions
my anger my rage
my sadness
and my frustration
i write because i am angry
i am angry at everyone
at everything, and
at myself.
i fall into the category of "everyone & everything" but sometimes, i do not feel it
so therefore, i separate
myself
maybe i should change my approach
maybe then i will be heard and responded to
maybe what i need is a muse that isn't so... deep (?)
something simple, something that can actually be seen
and felt
like, the kittens i pass on my morning walk
or the curve of my boyfriend's smile and his dimples that i grew attracted to
something sweet or, something romantic
will that resonate better with an audience
am i writing for an audience?
i am writing for an audience, and yet no one reads
why don't
you read the pieces i write? i think about asking my friends that
question quite often, but i do not
because i am afraid of the answer
what if they do not understand? what if they do not like it? or,
they are uninterested? what if?
then, that would mean they do not understand me... or,
like me...
if everything that i write is a reflection of who i am, then why would they not like it
if they are my friends...
my biggest fear had always been being misunderstood by those i consider dear to my heart
i want them to understand me i need them to
because if they do not understand me then why would anyone else?
i also don't want them to feel as if they have to read what i write
i want them to read, and i want them to understand, but only if they want to
if i do not know why i write, and
think that anything i say really matters, then
why do i do it? why do i continue to write even when i do not think anyone will read? maybe i am being hopeful (?)
hopeful that someone will read my work
that someone will understand, and be able to relate
if i cannot be understood, i at least hope to make someone else feel like they are
i write because i enjoy doing so
it can be hard sometimes, frustrating, but i enjoy writing something satisfactory
i write to be able to heal from the topics i do not speak about out loud, and i write simply because i believe that i am good at it.
maybe that's subjective (?) objective (?) [i does mix up these two words BAD]
subjective adjective
1. based on or influenced by personal feelings, tastes, or opinions.
adjective
1. (of a person or their judgement) not influenced by personal feelings or opinions in considering and representing facts.
i believe i am good at writing, and that is an subjective statement.
i personally believe that i am good at writing.
that is my opinion, and not a fact that isn't influenced by personal feelings or opinions.
therefore, subjective.
when i write, sometimes, i view it as a confession of all of the bad i've done
i try to be a good person, but the harder i try to be
the less i am
i will write my confessions on a piece of paper, and i will burn it
i will burn it to forget, as i do with most things
i try to be a good person, but the harder i try to be
the less i am
i will write my confessions on a piece of paper, and i will burn it
i will burn it to forget, as i do with most things
i don't know what i accomplish by burning them
maybe, i hope they will return to their original form; ashes
they will return to ashes, and they will become a part of something
they will dissolve in the water that i use to wash them down the sink and they will become a part of something
maybe the ocean maybe the earth
or nothing at all
i hope they become nothing to me
to the earth
that can be for the best; that will be for the best.
[do i make sense when i write? i don't know if i do]
[ another reason why no one reads, probably lol]
"you need to exist"
need. i need.
i must.
i am obligated to.
i get to exist.
i always feel as if i take up too much space, i do not know
if i am allowed to take up so much space in the lives of others
another reason why i write
but then my books pile up
one-by-one; they pile up
my writing takes up unnecessary[ ]space
i was told that i need to exist, and that i need to take up space
but i am not sure how
my ex-partner handed their journal off to me, and told me to take up space
but i was unsure of how i should do so
and i did not know if i should
i was allowed to, but that does not mean that i should
i don't think there has ever been a space for me there and especially right now, there is no space for me i took up all the space that i possibly could
it is someone else's turn [i don't think i ever had a turn]
i was allowed to exist there, but i don't feel as if any space was mine
i never stood a chance there, i do not know why i thought i did
i write to confess little things like this because i cannot say it out loud.
[they have access to my blog, it is public after all. maybe, they will pay it no mind
and if they do, i hope they understand]
okay, i have strayed far from the original topic
[ i did not know how else to use the word okay]
i mean, sebastian always tells me that i will be okay
he tells me that he knows that i will be okay
maybe, he's right (?) i hope he's right
he's been right about many things before
i wonder, though, is that all i want to be "okay" shouldn't i strive for happy, or is that too unrealistic for me
can i ever be happy, and what does it mean to be happy
is happiness subjective or objective? can it be either? i don't think you can describe happiness as subjective or objective (?) due to it being an emotion (?)
happiness is subjective ! that makes sense ! maybe, one day, i can be happy and not just okay and, i'll prove luke wrong :)i am not sure how to continue this now, journaling but also following a guideline following a guideline or a format is always the most difficult thing to do while journaling i normally ramble and scribble all my thoughts on to a page, and if it looks untidy i may hate it but i consider that to be the beauty of it all.
so, what now? i covered the reasons why i write, and i delved into other topics what now? i wonder if anyone will actually read this i try to tell myself that i do not write for an audience, but i am always focused on whether or not someone will read this and enjoy it i wonder if jay and naomi will read this. i had asked them both for help with prompts to write about, so.. i will send this to them and i'll wait to see naomi is busy studying though, and jay is probably playing roblox #unemployed 😡😡jay is great, i love jay we've been friends for years, jay is quite good at art, and by art i mean, the art of: "yapping, joy and whimsy" but also, literal art ! they draw quite well, and i always look forward to seeing new pieces from them they're one of my favourite people from the moment they start rambling about gacha videos to me after school while we awaited our parents arrival, i knew we would always be good friends you don't find genuine, sweet people like them often and so have naomi and i (we've been friends for years) ! i don;t rememeber the details behind
how naomi and i became friends; we simply did
she latched on to me like a parasite, or maybe it was vice versa [it was definitely vice versa]she is my best friend i don't know why she made that decision, she's so much better and deserves a lot better but beggars cannot be choosers, so ishall not complain we're all friends from school ! my darling, lifelong friends !
speaking of, i'll definitely send this to tobey !
he will definitely tune in, he always does tobey, genuinely, may be my biggest support when it comes to writing i mentioned earlier my friends and about being afraid that they would not understand my work, or even read my pieces, but never do i mean tobey NEVER do i mean, tobeyno matter how busy he gets, he takes the time to read my piecesthoroughlyand he always responds i don't think there are many people, currently, who gets me in the same way that he doestobey is my dearest friend, truly truly, he is [i'm going to stop there, though i do not need him with an inflated ego] [tobey doesn't have an ego, he is humble and kind]
tobey's always said that i am a good writer, and he always encourages me to write more and to share my work more -- even when i don't want to, or i don't think they're super great maybe, tobey's why i write maybe, he is my muse but i haven't fully acknowledged that fact yet honestly, he is quite fun to write about it's easy for me to express my gratitude toward tobey because it's loud and evident, i can almost visualise it
"yes" "would" and "go" my three last wordsgod, and jay (who doesn't know that i have decided to use their prompt in such a manner, so how can i blame them??), alone knows
all those three words make me think of is the sentence "yes, i would like to go..."honestly, i would love to go to bed right now it is 10:44p.m. and i have work in the morningmaybe [i've used maybe a lot in this] i should go to be now i will send this link tojay, naomi and tobey and i will go settle myself in bed...maybe i'll eat first, there's spicy tuna in the cupboardand i live with two greedy people and nana so i should eat the spicy tuna while i still can, actually
he will definitely tune in, he always does
no matter how busy he gets, he takes the time to read my pieces
thoroughly
and he always responds
i don't think there are many people, currently, who gets me in the same way that he does
tobey is my dearest friend, truly truly, he is [i'm going to stop there, though i do not need him with an inflated ego] [tobey doesn't have an ego, he is humble and kind]
tobey's always said that i am a good writer, and he always encourages me to write more and to
share my work more -- even when i don't want to, or i don't think they're super great
maybe, tobey's why i write
maybe, he is my muse but i haven't fully acknowledged that fact yet
honestly, he is quite fun to write about
it's easy for me to express my gratitude toward tobey because it's loud and evident, i can almost visualise it
"yes" "would" and "go" my three last words
god, and jay (who doesn't know that i have decided to use their prompt in such a manner, so how can i blame them??), alone knows
all those three words make me think of is the sentence "yes, i would like to go..."
honestly, i would love to go to bed right now it is 10:44p.m. and i have work in the morning
maybe [i've used maybe a lot in this] i should go to be now i will send this link to
jay, naomi and tobey and i will go settle myself in bed
...maybe i'll eat first, there's spicy tuna in the cupboard
and i live with two greedy people and nana
so i should eat the spicy tuna while i still can, actually
