SNAP
God, I can’t take it anymore.
One of these days, I’m just going to snap. SNAP.
Methinks my surroundings are reflecting my disturbed countenance. My computer screen is making little odd, jerky movements left and right and the coke bottle that I opened up earlier made a popping noise that doesn’t usually happen.
SNAP.
I feel so goddamned restricted in so many ways.
I just want to scream! To run! To BREATHE, dammit!
The problem is I can’t really pinpoint the exact reason why I’m feeling this. Acads? Family? Relationship? Extracurriculars? All of the above?
PUTANGINAPAKSHIT!!!!!!!!!
Hahaha. I wish I were hysterical.
I sometimes wonder, what if I just stop going to school? Just stop. Refuse to go even if my parents throw me out. Heck, I’d prefer it if they throw me out. I’d somehow get my own place, get a job, get out to the real world. Tear up to pieces the security blanket stained with piss, shit, sweat and saliva that I’ve been wrapped up in since I was a baby. Just GO! Face the goddamn world with my middle finger aimed up high. Damn them all.
I want to know me. I want to know if I am made of sterner stuff than this. I’m too impatient to wait... I’m worried that after my education, job and other obligations that I have to fulfill, it might be too late. Life is short. Carpe diem!!!
I just want to get out. I am suffocating. I can’t breathe. I can’t move.
My head is spinning.
I don’t care if I just become a bartender. I don’t care if I just become a vendor in some remote province in Mindanao. I want to leave. I want to live. I want to breathe.
I don’t want to fetch my sister from school. I don’t want to go out with my friends. I don’t want to study for any exam or do any fucking plate. I want to be alone! I want to be selfish! I don’t want to think about other people! I want to be an island!
It’s funny really. Man/ woman is a social animal. “No man is an island.” But in my case, in this state of (in)sanity, I want to be ALONE. Alone in a crowd. Alone at work. Alone in a store. ALONE.
Really. One of these days I’m just going to SNAP, just like that.
*SNAP*
