I should’ve said all those unsaid words, but honestly, I didn’t think it was the right time can sure be a kick in the ass.
You know, don’t you?
All those “how are you doing” questions followed by “I’m good” responses?
Bunch of bullshit, right?
But I caught on pretty quick that I can’t fool everyone. It’s not that people don’t care how I’m doing anymore; they’ve just given up on how to ask without getting answers.
I have a reasonable explanation for my answer, though.
I don’t know what the fuck is up.
It’s either that, or it’s a complete combination of so much shit going on that I don’t know where the fuck to start.
I’ve tried therapy, but why would I want to keep talking to an older white lady just for her to tell me I’ve got more issues than I’m leading on?
I know, lady; I’ve got fucking problems that you could never understand, so why am I bothering talking to you?
So yea, I think it’s a lot easier to say I’m good. Wouldn’t you?
I’m not saying that anybody has thrown the weight of the world on my shoulders, but I can admit that I’ve put the weight of the world on my back, and I feel like I can’t drop it now.
Maybe one day I’ll be able to share; until then, I’ll keep pounding on this keyboard to see if I can read back on it and understand.
So in the meantime, I’m good.
