Same Shite
Why would I want something new?
When it's the same shit on a different day?
When I can focus on my goals & dreams,
Without someone getting in the way?
I am over the rush
of looking for more,
My heart doesn't flutter
Like it did before.
There isn't anyone out there,
Worth my time,
No one worth messing with my emotions,
Or fucking with my mind.
I am cut off
in the most selfish way,
And I don't care if you care,
Not today.

Author's Note
If ever I love again.
Written because I'm being cynical today.
What is the point of trying?
Why the hell would I?
I haven't in a LONG time, and I don't see any logical reason to do so again...not after last time, when I ripped my own heart out and handed it to a man.
I hate that it still haunts me like a pathetic and cheesy YA novel, plaguing my thoughts every so often.
I'm still not over it, I won't do it again.
No, thank you.

The one for you will never wish to impede your progress.
They will simply want to always be in orbit around you.
Great stanzaic structure!

Dear PS,
I can’t thank you enough for putting the right words to feelings I’ve felt before. It is such an interesting process and I hope you won’t be plagued by these feelings for much longer. Your courage to speak these raw emotions is poetry in its finest form. I would also concur with MidnightSonneteer, “the one” won’t ever impede your progress or happiness. Until then…take solace in your beautiful writing. H🌷

You're growing more cynical cos you're growing older. It's not a criticism cos everyone gets older, right? Knockbacks get on our nerves for sure. I never found anyone who totally crushed me yet. Guess I'm just too much of a narcissist. Sometimes that's the best way to be. ;-)

I felt this, deep inside. You're not alone. Well done!
