I am living,
but I’m not living.
Been lost in a tailspin
of leftovers,
and today
I crashed.
Jumbled pieces of me
lie strewn about.
I don’t know which
to pick up first,
so I do nothing
as usual.

Tremendously sad. And all too familiar. And yet, Michelle, you inspire. To go beyond apathy. Well done.

Yeah, I wrote this awhile back and it’s been sitting in my draft folder. But it’s definitely how I’ve been feeling lately. The weight of life is just too much sometimes. Helps to write it all out.
