Sometimes I

Feel like I won’t ever be free of this feeling

The feeling of feeling like even though I am at peace with how things are.

There is always this one thread out of place that makes me doubt it all.

And I wonder if that feeling will ever go away even if I get it all and there is nothing left to have.

Will I be okay with all I have, or is it not me that has to be OK with it but the ones who tell me what I’m missing out on?

Will they ever be happy with what I have or don’t have?

As if the things I accomplish and succeed at really mean so much, and if it does, will I ever be 100% complete to them?

Sometimes, I feel like I‘m not the only one living my life.

So if I mess up, will they feel disappointed, or will they say to get back up?

Or maybe they won’t comment at all, and I can finally live for God and myself.
