Have you ever been exhausted?
Like mind draining, a gallon of
tears awaiting.
Ever tried to explain pain that
you don’t even understand?
Betrayal that you absolutely
cannot comprehend?
Ever craved to feel at home, like
at peace
With your body and all that you
are?
Do you ever feel like you’re in
the crowd- watching life happen to you?
It’s like no matter how hard you
try, you can’t make life work for you
From one event to another,
watching life take and take, then take some more.
Have you ever wanted to scream; I
mean scream so bad?
You hurt your throat.
Do you also wait until night to
cry, you know; the silent tears
Into your pillow.
Is your pillow also your
therapist? Friend? And judge, in one?
Is insomnia your friend? And loneliness
your husband?
Can you explain this hurt that is
cancerous? It keeps growing.
Do you look forward to your night
terrors? You know; to at least feel fear,
Because every other time, it's like you're a breathing machine.
Is love also foreign to you?
Why haven’t you ended it?
What keeps you going?
I'm genuinely interested in what keeps you going, talk to me.💓
