Same Way Down

October 23, 2024 by James Larson Leave a Comment

KYLE: I didn’t know what it was, at first. I thought it was just me… I thought it was how everyone felt. But I talked to Jason and he said it wasn’t that way for him. He had never felt like I did, and that’s when I thought maybe I wasn’t… normal. I never tried anything like… never tried anything, to end… I don’t know why I’m telling you this. It’s not like it changes anything.

I’ve talked to lots of therapists and I don’t know, nothing really makes a big difference. Maybe it’s just not for me. Maybe I’m beyond help or whatever. My head’s f’cked, I guess. I wish I wasn’t this way. I tried to pretend I wasn’t for so long. But I’ve made peace with it. The darkness in me. It’s not like it’s ever gonna go away. Not completely. That’s what they tell me at least. So I guess I have to make peace with it.

So I understand if you don’t want to be with me. You deserve someone better. Not f’cked up. I don’t want to bring you down. I’m doing better, but I just think you can do better than me. I wouldn’t blame you if you felt the same way.
