Appreciating Awkward Moments

Have you ever wondered what it's like to have awkward moments everyday? They're unavoidable in my situation and they're really annoying. It's not that I don't want those moments to disappear. In fact, I appreciate the awkward atmosphere despite it being annoying.

Every time these moments happen to me, I'm grateful since I don't have to come up with some random conversation with the person I'm sharing said awkward moment. I seriously don't like them in the first place so why try and act friendly?

I know what you're thinking. I'm just mean, aren't I?

To be honest, I can do civil. I just don't want to have anything to do with these people I share awkward moments with and that includes small talk. I'm not willing to put up an effort to just out up a friendly front. I'm one of those people that are brutally honest and I hate putting on a mask.

Thus, I've come to realise that I didn't need to do anything to get them out of my personal space. All I had to do was wait until the awkwardness they've brought onto themselves to settle in and make sure that I stop the giant Cheshire grin that constantly threatens its way up on face in these situations.

Thank you, awkward moments.

Words are meant to be spoken and heard as well written and read. Don't ever take them for granted. They can mean so differently from person to person.

Crawling Into My Shell

When the world seems to get too large, too quick or too scary, I crawl into my shell. Natural introversion takes over. When other's natural opposites push me into places I can't go, My mind retracts.

My main thought today has been why am I such an introvert. I don't understand it, I was never this way in my early years.

Garden

At a garden party. Lots of people here. I don't really know them. Paralysed by social fear. They're all really friendly. And I'm drinking their beer. BBQ is roaring. What am I doing here.

An Englishmans Home

So the world outside my window. Can stay right where it is. My home is now my castle. And in it nothing gives. A dam is built from flowers. That surround the castle wall.

The Emulators

I met a friend through a friend. And my circle started to blend. I'm not particularly loud. The guy escaping the crowd. You may call me impolite. Niceties I recite. Too many names, too many faces.

Me.

Sometimes I wonder how some people have known me for so long and still don't understand me. I quite frankly don't care if you dislike me because Im not here to please you.

Seriously?! I Have No Idea What I Am Writing

I don't care. Say good words and I will hear. Say bad ones and I won't cry a tear. I won't say a thing back, nothing bad. I will tell you your words never make me sad.
