Array ( [sid] => 52687 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Been awhile since I could say I love myself [time] => 2004-06-19 04:31:40 [hometext] => Just getting a huge amount of emotion of my chest [bodytext] =>
How low can you make me feel.
You give me the thoughts to kill.
Yet still I call you a mate.
When its you I should hate.
You drain me of my self esteem.
You break my will of being.
One friend he does see the real me.
He wishes we could be.
If only we could be, we would be great.
Yet we will never know, so thats ***** great.
No body notices how my anger is not right.
I just seem way too light,
May be I should give you some insight.
Notice when my eyes are not so bright.
May be you should disappear,
As I cannot be here.
My surrogate brother says I should be more open.
Dont you think ive tried to be more open.
If I was, I would scream to the world I LOVE DAN!
He is the one, he is my man!
Yet this is not me.
So as with me and Dan this cannot be.
Give me a break.
For my sake.
Please I just need to sort out my head.
As if it feels full of lead.
Now that is all said.
May be I can rest in peace and be dead.
Its been awhile since I could say I love myself

yes i agree it is good to get things of of your chest, but if you live with things then they will slowly eat away at you as te moves on.
i think that you should let your feelings be heard. the worst that can happen is that it could come down on you, but from what you've written it sounds as if that is already happening... well thats just what i would do in your situation any way

best wishes for the future, from deathdrop.

You must learn to love yourself so that others may fully love you.
