"What cannot be said will be wept"
~Sappho
Saying the truth aloud could free me from this burden.Or will it not?
It's all new to me,what I'm feeling does not fall under any of the categories I've explored so far. I've fallen in a deep calm, like a lake without shores.
All I've collected in my life so far surrounds me.
I can't tell its purpose.
It does not feel as if it's trying to drown me,or even coaxing me into drowning myself.
It's distracting and compelling.
A friend told me something which is not far from the truth.The lake promptly absorbed it,and I could not see the end of what its raw form meant to me,not as I would've intended to.
It all weighs heavy on my soul.
I'm transitioning from my self-created alter ago to what I believe is my true self.
Is it hurting?I can't tell.
True pain does not feel as this does.
Maybe I'm not in pain.
It's not an option I can exclude.
Let's wait and see how this longed metamorphosis will take place.

“Have you ever sat there, looking into space and feeling a tight grip wrapped around your heart, it’s squeezing and squeezing not allowing you to breathe and slowly slowly you start to feel the tears fall down, and one after another the fits start to happen and you just can’t stop it. It hurts so bad it’s indescribable. People say love hurts, but that words used are so vague, “love hurts”, no love kills, and it doesn’t just take your breath away it takes away a piece of you, making you feel fragmented, shattering you into small different pieces where you can’t even get yourself back up on track again. That is what love is. Not the holding hands, forehead kisses. It’s the feeling you feel when you break down into a million pieces. It’s when you can feel your heart shatter against your rib cage. It’s murder. That is love.”
i am tired and uninspired
i am used batteries
i am talent-less i am stale
i am a book thats been read and now sits on the shelf
i am a broken guitar string
i am useless
i am invisible
everyday i feel like i’m at war with the world
some days i feel like im standing on the tallest mountain,
screaming at the top of my lungs
”look at me, please, look at me“
if loneliness ever needed a defention,
it‘d be me
i see countless faces everyday
but do they see me? NO!
i am alone
i am invisible
all i wanna do is help other people like me
i wanna hold you and kiss your scars
and say ”i swear to god it‘ll be okay“
not today, but one day
one day, you‘ll wake up and smile for no damn reason
but today, we can cry
today we can be invisible.
invisible by dandelion hands
Why do humans need companionship?
Why can't be satisfied by being alone with ourselves?
Humans are known to be social beings,and no matter how much we may love our alone-time,we will always choose,with such alacrity even,to spend some of our time with someone whom we deem worthy of being around us.
It is an inexorable truth,which no matter how strongly you are opposed to,will show itself to you some time or another.
It is surely up to you whether to understand it or not,but there will come a time when your good intentions aimed at protecting yourself will backlash.
At that point in time there will be no one to turn to,all your choices will pour down on you and you will see no path ahead of you.
After realizing what companionship means to you,everything will become undeniably stressful.
Is it because of fear?Do you just not know how human interactions unravel anymore?Or what is it?
Usually it would be wise to let go of such feelings by interrupting the friendship causing them,however that is not the case in such a context.
At this point in time you only have one option:try not putting this companionship ahead of everything else,instead just hold it dear to you.Hopefully everything will be set in motion once again.
stlsrr submitted: Hello, Harsh title i know, but its the best to describe what im about to express. Its not long ago i found out about my INTJ character, though to my surprise it explained a lot! The way i acted and reacted to specific situations, my love for solitude, not much talking etc… you probably are aware of these things. But its the first time I was justified by knowing that. The reason was simply, that when you are the ONLY one to act differently (not akward) and EVERY single person you know to judge you and turn against what you are you begin to doubt your self and your ways. Though that is very painful thing to do because deep in you you know you are acting in a “correct” way that asides morality and happines of your self. INTJs love to have it rough, indeed we adore challenge, but this is something way different. Despite i dont wish to write about me self rather to express my ideas i have to say that my life the past few years been … lets just say not to pretty. Both my actions and my luck costed me and made me lose a lot. Thought that’s one of my biggest debates as an INTJ. Did i brought it upon my self or just people behaviors did? In other words cant an INTJ ever avoid this presure about their “inner be” I havent met any other INTJ , the closest i got is an ENTJ ( a Godsent gift!!!) , and because of that i havent the slightest idea how other INTJs deal with their lives. Me , as an INTJ tend to have most of the characterists that make a person of that temperament to be jugded as wierd, loner, sarcastic, selfish and many more, but i Never let that to take me down. There were many times i trully wanted to give in my nature and be sarcastic, snobbish, through my ingenius ways i could be extremly evil and revengeful. But i withhold my self. Due to my evolved sensing and feeling I wanted to like people, to respect, appreciate and accept them for what they are. I was by their side in their darkest hours, i was always looking for the goodness in them…
I’m not sure if that was a mistake but defently people never apreciated the efford and value i gave em. I never asked and gotten nothing in return rather a cold and unfair behavior by them. I dont know what caused that and i dont know who to blame, but i all know is that it made me more cold and less expressive. After two years of extreme conditions i was tired to withhold over and over again and again… I wasnt aware of how i could reacted through a very negative perspective on life. Long story short very outraging. I started to defend my self againt others will to change me. Are INTJs so … violent as in terms of self preservation ? That time i figured that not only people were afraid of me and started to respect me but as well i met my capabilities, something that made me afraid of living through a negative side. So my points out of all the above are: Do INTJs have it rough in their lives? and if so how should they react? Respect towrds others? Or their selves? ( I believe both isnt an acceptable anwser as we are people of edges, the is no shades of grey in our lives, just black and white) Should an INTJ show compassion and patience for what people are or simply people brought it to them selves (Our reaction to their actions)? For the same as we INTJs want to be accepted as we are , i believe we should show some but… im out of alternatives, they just dont accept us. And as the title suggest are INTJs doomed by design? How can a person thats destined to see and fix mistakes to ever find peace and happiness in such a flawed world? Thanks for reading and thanks for any kind of reply.

Maybe it's time to take a step back.
All I've built does not sit right with me anymore.
Everything I believed to be one of my key truths isn't actually what it should have been.
It made everything seem like a transient moment.
That's why I feel so lost.
I couldn't fathom this realization,my mind was keeping it from me until I was ready to welcome and accept it.
It is considerably unalike the way it felt years ago.
I feel void but so full and overwhelmed by my emotions.
My emotions.How strange it sounds to be able to openly display them both to my own self snd to others.
It makes me proud.
~
There's also hurt in there.
I can't shake this overwhelming flow of emotions that is burning within me.
I wouldn't give it up for anything in this world,neverthless I feel powerless.
I am supposed to start anew.How is that supposed to be done?
Am I still the person I believe I am?
Is there more that wants to come out of its abyss?
She
I used to hate that word
Something alien would gripe at my throat.
I would choke on it, eyes burning
Now
that I think of it, I am not as bitter.
She
Is a world away from myself and
I get dizzy sometimes,
Looking at my feet.
I am at peace with her, and I feel
A familiar bond
She was me for a while, after all.
She
And I are friends
I am walking on a road
I made for myself
And she holds my hand, a comforting presence.
She
Will always be there
And now, I understand myself better.
I will never be her
Yet I feel no pain for having been mistaken,
For she is my better friend
- She, M
damn baby you are beyond mortal comprehension, wanna make me insane?

I feel so relatably lonely.
Surrounded by others,I’m able to laugh and have fun,yet I’m so alone.
Truly,deeply,alone.
That was it all along.Loneliness.
Craving for a soul that matches your own.
Yearning for somebody that makes you feel right.
Longing for a meaningful connection to someone.
Silence feels so foreign to the point that i can’t breathe in it.
It’s helplessly eating me alive.
I want so much to happen just to fill this void i have inside of me.
Oh.It feels so compelling.Numbness seems a divine state of being right this moment.
How good would it be to be back to the old me?
Too much.And yet nothing at all.
Who am I in this life?
Who am I in this moment?
What am I supposed to be living for?
“You’re going to love it.
You’re going to love the you that has always wanted to be you.”
Right?
