I thought I’d be able.
Still fighting off these wretched worries
that claim ownership of my mind.
When I’m tired
they get louder
The echos of our past chase me
down hallowed halls
I swore I knew better
This time
When I’m tired
the world looks all gray
The sunlight can’t reach my icy skin
and I’m reminded of who I’ve been
Mirrors become a dark beacon
and I’m stuck in quicksand
Again
It’s all the same
Much like a car crash
I can’t look away
Fascinating mistakes
grip my wrist like a vice
I’ve changed, it’s true
but something within me still wins
I want it to disappear as it came
rapid and invisibly.

It is funny how your mindset and outlook of things can be totally different when you’re feeling exhausted and tired. Sometimes it’s a good opportunity to try to face those inner demons. And if not, tomorrow is a new day. Thanks for sharing. Hope you’re all ready for the holiday season. Linda

Aw yes!!!! You’ve got it, Linda!!!!! That was the message. I am excited 😊 🤗 . It always makes me happy when readers really take it all in. Thank you for your comment. It is a great opportunity to face those demons when you’re tired and down. It helps you see your true potential and strength . I am almost done Christmas shopping and managed to do well with good savings and finding things that are loaded with memories and meaning. I am really proud of myself for that this year. I usually struggle finding things for people but this year I enjoyed finding things I know the people I love will value. I am also excited for Christmas in general. I’m planning on baking this weekend and enjoying the Christmas lights around the neighborhood. I’m going we get some Christmas snow, though. So far, we have been getting a lot of rain. Haha 😄 🤣 . The weather is very random lately. How are you ?

Glad to hear that you’re all ready for the holidays. I know what you mean about finding presents that are meaningful. I actually have a batch of Christmas cookies in the oven at the moment. I’m making soft molasses cookies. I was hoping for a white Christmas too, but it looks like that won’t happen. Oh well, at least the weather has been pretty mild which has been good for walking.
I’m a bit sleep deprived, but doing pretty well. I gave birth about two weeks ago and am absolutely in love with my daughter. We’re planning on having a quieter Christmas this year, which is perfectly fine with me. Only two days to go!
