When faced with a tragedy, certain people know exactly what to do and say. Exactly when to cry, or hug, or laugh. I cannot figure out ways to express my thoughts. When faced with a death, I prefer to retreat into myself, self-medicate, write songs, do anything and everything to take my mind off of the pain.
A good friend's father just passed away. I have yet to see her. I sound so stupid, but I'm afraid to see her. I'm afraid to remind her of the hurt.
I guess because when I'm faced with these tragedies, I feel so uncomfortable when people try to make it seem okay. "I'm so sorry for your loss." WHY do people say that? It doesn't make me feel any better. It wasn't your fault. Something about that line feels so fake to me. But my heart aches for her and her family. None of this seems fair.
