Fade away..

"sometimes, listlessness hint at a destitute emotional state. one can appear to be under enormous inner pressure, probably caused by feelings of inadequacy. sometimes, an unfulfilled performance ambition increases with one's lack of energy in a vicious cycle. the ensuing conflict being fought out inside takes up all of the person's energy."

an insight to psychiatry and perhaps understanding exam stress. maybe thats why at times, its inevitable to feel helpless and even despondent..its this giant cycle of negative energy building up within. wow. psychiatry really is interesting.

"nevertheless, feelings of inadequacy, shame and a nostalgic longing for experiences long past still reflect an inner conflict - a charge against oneself and the world, coupled with the idea of having lost everything.A repressed fear of losing an object of love might be responsible for this melancholy view of the world. To avert the fear of loss, the super-ego develops a conflict by proxy. To avoid heaving hate and anger upon the object of love - who has left it behind - it turns this destructive energy upon itself. Only in this way can the object of love be saved from the destructive forces and survive - and with it the feeling of love."

There's a Hole in my

Sidewalk
I
I walk down the street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I fall in.
I am lost...I am helpless.
It isn't my fault.
It takes forever to find a way out.

II
I walk down the same street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I pretend I don't see it.
I fall in again.
I can't believe I am in the same place.
But, it isn't my fault.
It still takes a long time to get out.

III
I walk down the same street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I see it is there.
I still fall in. Its a habit.
My eyes are open.
I know where I am.
It is my fault. I get out immediately.

IV
I walk down the same street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I walk around it.

V
I walk down another street.
