i am sick. i have been sick for the past year. well, mentally i am not diagnosed as having a mental illness. physically, i am well. you'd see me as a robust, big and tall lady. some even label me as a very muscular lady. the broad shoulders just adds on to the emblem of 'muscle -lady' to many. you would not think me as someone who is unwell. but, i am. have been for the past year. it comes and goes.
i do wonder why, until this day, why such things had befallen me. what have i done to deserve such. it hurts you know. love sick? not entirely. heart problem? not really. choked arteries. *touch wood* it's a sickness that's hard to describe. in malay, penyakit batin. you know?
i remember vividly, about less than a year ago, i would have these sudden panic attacks that people i love are going to leave me. bad panic attacks that left me crying suddenly. high fevers that come only when the sun was setting. the nightmares. the yearns. the sorrow. the depression. such things hurt me physically and emotionally. with that, i have to shoulder by myself. Ba kept saying," you have got to fight this. no one can help u, really. we can support, but you got to fight." *shucks*
it really does not help the amount of emotional turmoil that i was going through. in malay, dah jatuh ditimpa tangga. it was so hard u know. my room was filled with recitations everyday. i'd cry myself to sleep every night. and i would wake up suddenly at 2am, crying. then i would mantera myself to sleep. it was hard, very hard.
i did ask," will i recover fully?" and the answer is," no. it is an innate illness. the only thing you can do is control." my heart dropped. a tear dropped. i knew i was going to lose many things. many things that i was not willing to lose. simply because they were not easy to find.
have faith many say. not easy. it is unbelievable that in this modern age, such things still do exist. *sigh* have love in your heart. how to? i lost mine. simultaneously, my heart was crushed to pieces. scattered in many pieces; uncountable. too painful to count.
"cushion my fall." i keep praying. i was not. i fell hard, on spikes and sharpened boulders. i was pierced deep. i am hurt, even until today, beyond repair. many see me and they sensed the difference. i am not as happy as before. how to? i don't know how. help? how can you help? it is my battle. right? when you are this hurt, you see everything bleak. not that you refuse to see the light, you just cannot bring yourself to look up. too painful.
nobody had ever broke me. whatever i went through before, i took as lessons and learn from there. it was not easy then. but in relative to this, those were peanuts. wait! cardamoms are better. smaller.
not that i do not want to get over, it is hard. what is not hard, you would ask. i would answer: nothing. how would you react if the person you love so much, say in your face that he hates to see you or to hear your voice? how would you feel? how would you react? wat would you do?
it is easy for people to say: move. i am tired. very tired. i pant looking at life. at my life. it is not pathetic. it is just sad. sigh.
people cheat, yes. people lie, yes. i have been lied to, cheated upon. many stuffs i was undeservedly given. how does it feel? it hurts big time. for those who have your loved ones still by your side, cherish? yah. i hope you do. cos, i lost mine though i cherish him more than my life. i saw a diamond. i saw it being mine. i don't know how and why. but i saw it mine. *crying*
as what someone had said to me before," he left me, aidah. but my heart refuses to oblige. i don't know why. the many before him, i could just pack and leave. this one. i am not budging. not that i don't want to. i cannot. i do not why." all i did was smile. i know that hurt. i turned to my right and teared.
