hold me
let me know you love me
inspire me
my vision gets blurry
trust me
because I need validation
talk with me
I just want to be heard
hurt me
but just make sure you also heal me
leave me
if I’m truly that hopeless
do this…
or just let me die
help me lift this weight
the pressure gets heavy
let me know it’s ok to walk away
and let me know I can return
I’ve failed
tell me it’s not forever
I’ve grown tired
but I can’t sleep
tell me what it is I need to do
then finally lay me down
do this…
or just let me die
please, don’t let me give up
I still want to hope
show me there’s still good in people
help me see
there’s still good in me
I lack direction
still I keep walking
bloody feet and all
I’ve accomplished a lot
I’m just not sure if I still care
show me how to care
Dear N,
This write has me thinking of restlessness and all the emotions and thoughts that attend that state of exhaustion. I totally appreciate the thread of hope and the willingness to see but it needs illumination and direction. You write this type of energy very well. You can feel its pulse. H🌷
Very much is about needing that love to get you though and keep you human.
Hi N,
In re-reading my response the following was what I meant to say. I have a funny feeling I hit post comment before I read whatever auto correct inserted. “I totally appreciate the thread of hope and the willingness to see it, yet still needing its guiding illumination and direction”. Dang auto correct and late night typing 🤦🏻♀️
H🌷
Haha. Yes, auto correct is all of our enemy. I get what you were saying and appreciate the read, friend 😁
Powerfully penned, Nick. Could feel these words my friend. Thanks for sharing. Appreciate you.
