Sometimes
I wonder
What flying feels like
I analyze the overpass
and think
it could be exhilerating
Soar through the sky
close my eyes
be back with those
i love
Imagine
the hardest
thing
you've ever done
For me
that thing
is living
Women complain
of smile lines
Not me
because
i barely smile
Letting myself
feel joy
is like forcing
a stake
in frozen ground
It can be done
with pressure
It take's a while
but
it can be done
I crave
a break
Like a kit-kat
Give me
a break
Often
my eyes
are heavy
I think
about sleep
All day
I just
want sleep
The problem is
i never
find time
to sleep
I truly feel so tired. Not the kind of tired that a nap can fix. The kind of tired where just existing is too much.
Living is becoming so heavy, my body can't support it.
But i treak on
continue to survive
push to thrive
find joy
in the things i can
in the people, places, things
i love
and for those people, places, things
i am so grateful
they give me
purpose
meaning
reason
