I use my Instagram account for posting all my poems, quotes, and writings. And so in my post today, I asked whether I should publish the book I’m working on, then this account who had the same theme commented for me to do it and she just started to compliment all my works and I thanked her. Then, she asked me if I wanted to be her internet friend, and I couldn’t be more ecstatic, I’ve finally gained something out of a loss. We just started to share things about ourselves till’ we wrote each other poems about meeting each other. Then she asked me if I’ve had rough days, because my poem was about being broken and her saving me and all that. And despite having people whom I’ve known for my whole life, no ones ever noticed my sadness or cared to ask about it like her. I just felt this connection towards her and I felt comfortable talking to her, and just so you know, I’m nit very used to opening up, but I did because it felt different talking to her. And she didn’t freak out, or was so shocked, or barged me wih questions, she was calm. She comforted me and accepted me for my really insane side. And we barely knew each other for an hour. Her words were just the ones I wished to hear before, and her support made me feel that I didn’t give up yet. Even when I said that I wished to be alone earlier, maybe things can change for once. I had to kill myself the other day, but I thought that there must be a miracle, waiting around the corner for me to find, and I did. I’m so glad I did. Emma, I know you may not read this, but you just saved a life. You gave me hope that I can hold on. I hope when I meet you someday, I could finally show you the scars you’ve healed. Thank you for caring. Thank you for accepting. Thank you for existing. Isn’t it ironic that the people you haven’t known for long were the ones who made you feel to live?

YOU saved your life. Emma helped. YOU chose to open the door. Emma was the first to peek in. YOU made the appropriate effort to communicate. Emma responded.
When you choose to open the door wide you’re going to see a helluvalotta interesting people out there. Some of them will suck, but that’s OK because more of them will support you.
So clean your room! Expect visitors!
Like I said I was never used to opening up, so when I did I felt happy. And this just sums up the feeling, you’re right I chose to open the door. I’ll try opening it a little wider everytime, and I am sure some might come in. It’s because of this community that I feel confident, because I’m not alone. Thank you, I just love your comment ???.
Glad to help. Words have power. Always respect librarians and writers, I say.
That’s so nice. 🙂 I think there are people on this site who don’t know how much they’ve done for me. I do have people in my life to listen, but I find it hard to talk about a lot of things. Here I can open up and meet new people in a way I can’t in RL. Having someone hear you and care is beautiful and comforting and sometimes opens up a path to a new world. I’m so glad you found a friend. I want you to know that people here care so much about you too. 🙂
We all need someone like y’all in our lives. Those who just say the words you need to stay. This site helped me a lot cope, knowing that there are others our there struggling the same. And it’s just a little community where everyone helps each other and I think that’s beautiful. ILY to all of you right now.
This post just made my day perfect!
Congrats and good luck!!! :)))) 😀
