leaving yourself alone

Ever since that moment you first opened your eyes and cried, you were ushered to calm down Sadness could be combatted by ice cream, or friends, or video games, or work, or alcohol or sleep Any negative feeling was met with a distraction, a mechanism, an immediate solution Sometimes you engage in another activity, and find those feelings vanished upon your mental return to them But I think that most of the time, these feelings go unfelt to their full extent The color shade that washes over us is often a question we sweep under our ugly living room rug To be brought up once, we've returned from our mental break outside But a lot of these colors remain nameless, as we never end up coming back to them After a while, it gets to a point where it can feel like too much work to lift the carpet and have a look underneath it It can become overwhelming to even consider the number of colors we have put off naming I think that eventually, all of these little drops of colorless ink add up This is where we find that sometimes, the tiny glass jar inside us reaches its breaking point Distracting myself immediately from the uncomfortableness of feeling has become a knee-jerk reaction It's so ingrained in me, I'm unaware of how often I do it I've realized that not allowing myself to feel what I'm feeling and to process this sadness Is a lot like leaving myself alone You turn away from those miserable parts of yourself because you don't have the time or energy to face them You never seem to I don't even think most people know how to name their colors How to let them wash over and take the time to process and identify them right In our haste, we often mistake pale green as pale blue and orange as red You thought it was black when it was indigo It's too complicated and there is no time to figure it out You tripped over the rug The glass jar broke Perhaps, you left yourself alone
