Point of Inflection


I think I’ve felt this earlier
This similar feeling
A sense of emptiness in the air
A nauseating silence in the being
A pang in my heart
Which strums more than my six string
A point of inflection
Where I cant go forward nor behind anymore
Where I sit, breathless
Looking at everybody laughing, chattering
The sounds annoy me
I think i’m frivolous but I realize
That I’m different
Unique.
Something which makes me, me
I think a lot
I contemplate a lot
I still can’t breathe
The feeling’s inescapable
Every breath of mine writhes of pain
Unable to talk to anyone
A point of inflection
People call out to me
I respond
That’s all.
Nothing further
They prod me to talk and fail
They give up and move ahead
I think that’s what nauseates me
Friends have all moved on without me
Never waiting for me
Never caring for what I feel
There are friend circles
Among friend circles
But I don’t fit anywhere
I spend my pent up anger as hydrides
Rolling down my cheeks
Which I swallow hard
So hard that it aches
A burning.
I run to the washroom
Pretend to have a cold
Lock myself up
Turn the tap on
And cry
A point of inflection
From friends whom I thought I can’t live without,
I have learnt
That I should never have expectations
Cuz they can never meet it
I should never love them as much
Cuz I’m always replaceable.
I should never get attached to them
Cuz they never will
I should never express my genuine love and affection to them
Cuz it doesn’t matter to anyone
Everyone on this planet is a loner
But, what brings people together is the fact that there is another loner destined to be with him or her
I try to breathe and relax
But fail miserably
I am panting
But sometimes my breathing becomes labored
I don’t know what to say
I retract into my world
When I want to write, I don’t find the resources
When I find the resources, I don’t feel like writing
I smile
But I know what’s happening to me
Fully conscious
Of everything
How everyone is happy without my company
I cringe at the thought
But truth is always bitter
And I have learnt it the hard way
I don’t know how my life progresses
Each day is the same as the other
A point of inflection
Others eyes full of life
Mine showing the same darkness
Filled with agony
That I just want to go somewhere and shut myself
And expect to be asked if I’m okay
But I won’t be asked
And I should live with the truth
For I have reached,
A point of inflection
