Another night
Alone with my thoughts
I can’t win this fight
I guess I forgot
In my head
It all goes wrong
This can’t be right
I need to stay strong
I feel it in my head
But not in my heart
All my fears
And I’m falling apart
Mixed up
My past left me this way
And alone with my thoughts
Is how I will stay
I want to tell you
I want you to care
But the comfort to speak
Just isn’t there

I wanted to write
I wanted to set goals
But my mind betrays me
More than anyone knows
I wanted resolutions
I wanted a good year
But my nervous system’s broken
And everything is unclear
April 28th, 2024
I’m fighting deadlines
That I know don’t exist
I’m grinding my teeth
And clenching my fist
I forgot how to relax
With everything I feel
I only see red
Nothing feels real
This is the pressure
I put on myself
I know it’s not just me
We all do this to ourselves
I want to start over
I want to let go
But only through pain
Do we learn how to grow
