Much of what has gone on with him does not seem like much because
he has already done this all before, alone.
Laying back and thinking – over analyzing –
trying to figure out where he messed up is extremely frustrating.
With a low tolerance for everyone else’s opinion, he does what he wants.
When he is all alone, to ease his pain, he begins a rant,
starring back at his pitiful reflection in the mirror asking,
“what have I gotten myself into?”
Feeling like he has got no one to talk to.
Even though his feelings are deep and dark, and meaningful,
and he is dealing with them all alone,
he hasn’t given up on trying to better himself.
Shutting out what everyone has to say about him and who he is,
eventually realizing that he is capable of deciding his own fate.
Whatever it is he wishes to succeed gets put on his vision board
and in the center of that vision board,
LOVE YOURSELF.
With the memory of hurt and betrayal in hand, he makes an oath to swear to the feeling of contentment.
He is well aware that down the road, there will still be moments where he is hurt,
but he is also aware that that feeling does go away.
Since he has been through this and knows the system of getting hurt constantly,
it is safe to say he will be alright.
After all, he has done this before.
This piece was inspired by a quote I found in the book I am reading, Beruit Hellfire Society, ” he has done this before, alone.” – page 6. Reading this simple line immediately struck me with inspiration to write about guys feelings. I’m sure everyone is well aware that guys have to play tough guy all the time, and are not able to cry or show any emotions other than power. I wanted to shed some light on the fact that guys actually have feelings as well, and it’s not only girls who experience hardships. There seriously is nothing wrong with a guy that cries, if anything, that is what shows strength because they have the will power to showcase their emotions, even if they do it in secret. There is so much I have to say about this topic, and only a glimpse of it is shown here, but I promise there are so many things I have to say about this. I just hope whoever is reading this, girl or boy, that there seriously is nothing wrong with being a human with raw emotions, thanks.
