Because I Have

This is something I wrote when I was pondering what a friend of mine said about me.

Have you ever had a million thoughts going through your head at one time?
Have you ever had so many ideas that you couldn’t write them all down?
Have you ever aspired to be something that you can’t be?
Have you ever changed but were too afraid to show it?
Have you ever liked someone who didn’t like you back?
Have you ever been excited and anxious at the same time?
Have you ever watched a thunderstorm and prayed the lightening didn’t kill you?
Have you ever been so lonely that it brought tears to your eyes?
Have you ever looked at the moon and thought someone somewhere is looking at it, too?
Have you ever felt so useless that you had to convince yourself that someone will need you someday?
Have you ever written a suicide note just to see what your last words would be?
Have you ever wished you could be someone else?
Have you ever wished someone would cease to exist without knowing why?
Have you ever wished you could remember the past?
Have you ever walked through the rain barefoot to help someone?
Have you ever taken an elderly neighbor food just to make him smile?
Have you ever used writing to feel better?
Because I have.
