Within this silence lies the language of insanity.
The seconds, hours and days have been stripped of change. There is no longer a way to differentiate one day from the next as I sit feeling trapped within the comfort of these walls. What was once my friend has become my only enemy. This silence has seeped within my mind, overwhelming all other senses. At times I find it harder to hear the voices of others. I look upon the world from a place three steps back within me... Sudden realizations take place where I suddenly am aware of what I'm doing. It makes me wonder, where was I before this awareness took place? Is it safe to say that for those moments I really did not exist at all?
I smile to the world and frown on my own. I feel frustrated - these arms of mine seem too weak to hold myself together. Life has forced me into a fear of believing change is never actual unless it's negative. The happier I feel one day, the more energy I use and the harder I will come to falling into the many other days. I wouldn't have used the term "naive" to describe myself before, but it seems to be one that perfectly describes my inability to learn once and for all. Like a lab rat who can't stop reaching for the cheese despite incoming shock...
But perhaps it isn't that the lab rat is so dumb that it cannot put one and one together... But that it feels that life isn't worth living if it cannot hold that we it desires so heavy heartily for.
In that aspect, me and him are no different.
Time is marked by change, without this, nothing within its reach truly ages.

11:52am/ And it continues to drag...
Is it safe to say the entirety of fault rests upon my hands? Have I welcomed these occurances through the invitation of my own flaws and weakenesses? Or are they present from the weakness of my health?
I've experienced the constant fluctuations, the habitual cycle of it's way that pound at my sanity... Yet, at the end of it, I feel that if I cannot take blame for it, it would mean that little of myself remains within... For these tendencies, whoever it may belong to, seems to have touched into many aspects of my life.
If even these moods are not mine to hold, what part of me should remain?
At first, I was ecstatic. It's not how far behind you are, it's the fact of whether you can intiate progression that will eventually take you to where you need to be... Let it be slow or not. The ability to indulge into the books I had yearned so bad to open... The books I was without all those previous years where I was forced to put a large part of myself on hold... I finally got them while most were just about to close theirs. No matter, I try to visualize myself as a lone venturer - it prevents me from feeling left behind. But who would of known that as time went on, change was still so far from my reach and my agony was to be re-experienced at a worser degree. I think that's what gets me the most, I had control before and still got a bigger dose of it to handle... I don't have control anymore, I'm merely trying to sustain.
I'm pulling out on the course I started out with such eagerness. I was attentive in class and tried to go to all my classes. In the beginning I was more successful... But as time went on, my energy was being used but seldom restored. I crashed again. First it was a week's absent, then I would try to fix it and got everything together again. Then it became a month. Next, it became a test... I could not get my body to cooperate with me to finish my studies. I'm the type of person ( I believe ) that will do what needs to be done, even if I don't do it in the same way as others. I should of saw it coming when I experienced worse moods and increase in the variety and severity in my annoying symptoms... But I just want to get it done since I started it. If it worsens more I know I will just crash on everything altogether and force myself to become nonchalant to protect the fact that I care. I don't even know what I do care about anymore.
I was always a person who hated incompetence, failure, weaknesses and emotional bs. Suddenly, I'm just that and I can't seem to get a hold on myself. I try my best to disicpline myself in certain matters, yet despite all the torturous efforts on my mind to instill these lessons, it seems to amount to nothing as I see myself in a worsened or similar place in life. It's been a long time. I feel as if my soul has been brutually beatened... There's lessons here... But after drawing up so many conclusions and what nots from the past... What does it matter what you've think you've learned or what you've established if you can't transform these lessons into actual changes around you.
