Down in a hole

Posted by Lamdage on August 26, 2011, at 4:33:17

Down in a hole and I don't know if I can be saved
See my heart I decorate it like a grave
You don't understand who they
Thought I was supposed to be
Look at me now a man
Who wont let himself be

Down in a hole, feelin' so small
Down in a hole, losin' control
I'd like to fly,
But my wings have been so denied

Did you ever say anything to make me feel you were female?

I'd like to preach against salvation, but I do remember feeling, 'I need deliverance'.

Now I just feel old and wonder when I can get a permanent prescription for opiates.

Ah, life. It's a barrel of laughs.

What's happening with that Nardil?

How do you let go, anyway? Not so easily?

Maybe its that i said my "best friend" is a female. Well it gets more and more obvious that this could turn bad.
Another not so uplifting thing.

Nardil, it does something but nardil cannot rid one of their fate.

The toughest thing is i don't really have parents that were ever able to help me. I quit all contact yet i do miss having parents badly.
Thats the toughest thing. I feel guilty, it saddens me and i just wish i had a family were i could feel home and nurtured. The pain and sadness that is buried in me as a result of this never fulfilled need is just soo overwhelming,

You mean let go of the past or let go in form of relaxation?

It must have been the abuse.

I meant let go of the past. Please do not assume I can do this.

My son doesn't need me, these days (which is fine). He comes home and we have a perfectly nice time watching Game of Thrones or something else. Our daughter still needs us, psychologically. The aim of parenting is perhaps to help the kid need you no longer? Like therapy?

It would be dreadful to be caught in a situation of endless disapproval. Having said that, I kind of disapprove of the world. Somehow my kids escaped.

No, I'm a man that has been abused in multiple fashions.

> I meant let go of the past. Please do not assume I can do this.

I guess i can't.. and trying too hard to do this, in my book, can lead to false "letting go" which is just as harmful.

Probably. Therapy is the opposite of what my parents tried to do.

Me too. A lot of it is my depression and what I've come to see through depression. (hospitals, clinics, dysfunctional families (i can spot them with bandaged eyes).
