It just doesn't seem to end. It feels like when one thing
goes bad, another one follows. Then if something goes right,
something else will drag you down. It's never controlled,
never simple, never easy. Not one day. I haven't had a day
in weeks that passed without my watching the seconds drip
to an in a gloomy puddle that is the collection of the days
prior. I haven't gone to sleep feeling positive, ready for
tomorrow. I haven't been very proud of myself lately, and
when I do accomplish something to be proud about, someone
or something won't let it last. I just wish I could be left
alone. I wish life would leave me alone for one day. One good
day where no one complains, no one pisses me off, no one gives
me shit, nothing exhausts me, nothing breaks, nothing haunts
me. I just want to wake up feeling well-rested, go through
my day doing things I like to do, or that I need to do and
glad I got done, and have some simple pleasantries, like nice
phone calls, a good episode of Friends, and then I can go
to bed feeling sleepy, having had such a simple, lovely day
that I don't even think about it. One day where I don't how
much shit I had to deal with. I just want a day where I have
nothing to worry about, or at least one day when I don't worry
about the things that worry me. I want a day to be selfish,
a day where I can tell everyone to fuck off, that TODAY is
a day where I plan on staying happy no matter if you like
it or not. I don't want to hear anyone's problems. I don't
want to hear anyone's mistakes. I don't want to hear ANYTHING.
I just want to have ONE NICE DAY. God, it seems absolutely
impossible. I don't want to feel guilty, I don't want to apologize,
I don't want to care. I want to care about me, I want to enjoy
me, I want to not beat the shit out of me until someone comes
by to do it for me. I want one day where I don't have to deal
with anyone else's impatience, sarcasm, disinterest, ignorance,
insensitivity. I want one day where NO ONE puts me in the
position where I have to stop smiling. I want to laugh and
smile for a whole day. I want to have ONE GOOD dream. I need
a fucking break, and I'm only asking for one day. So, when
that day is over and the insults resume, the lack of career
stares at me blankly, the stupid job waits for me to attend,
and the computer takes ten minutes to open up internet explorer;
I can at LEAST remember what it was like to have a great day.
