One of those days

The tiring frustration,
The dreadful feeling of wanting to cry,
The painful grinding of teeth,
The thoughts,
The thoughts,
The thoughts.

Ah, my head hurts.
The reality of how two-faced, and selfish people can be slapped me across the face today. I was made to question my worth, my intelligence, my sanity and my entire appearance. Am I really worth a place in society? Or am I just another one of those teens who lost their way and will not be important enough to steer back into the right direction?

I’ve been thinking of what I am lately because I’ve been feeling like I’m stuck in a limbo. Nothing is coming or going, nothing is moving forward or backward. I’ve been suspended in time.

While I’m in this state, I didn’t realise how vulnerable I am. People would use me and pit themselves against me to make themselves feel better because I am no competition to them. As unfair and cruel as it sounds, majority of people pit themselves against the weaker ones to boost their morale before embarking on a bigger journey. The weaker ones are left there, demoralised to nothing and never being able to move forward after being continuously stepped on.

Why don’t I pick myself up and step right back? It’s because I’m nothing. I realised that I’m nothing. There’s nothing more I can do. I’m just cemented here while everyone figures themselves out.

Sometimes I question myself, why do I try so hard? Why do I keep trying with my meager efforts when it’s bringing me nothing but hurt and disappointment?

 I’m at the limit of my abilities and it’s making me feel like I’m a waste of space.
