I DON'T WANT TO BE STRONG ANYMORE

I'M SO TIRED OF CARRYING THE WEIGHT OF THE WORLD WHEN ALL IT DID WAS DROP ME

I DON'T WANT TO MOVE FORWARD

I WANT SOMEONE TO BE STRONG FOR ME FOR ONCE BUT I CAN'T JUST DUMP MY PROBLEMS ON SOMEONE WHEN THEY'RE CARRYING A WEIGHT OF THEIR OWN

I WANT TO LAY DOWN AND QUIT BUT MY MOTHER DIDN'T RAISE A QUITTER

SHE RAISED AN OVERACHIEVING, UNAFRAID GO-GETTER

BUT THAT SHIT GETS TIRING AND I AM BEYOND TIRED

I want to quit but I don't do anything. I am tired but I sleep every night. My shoulders ache but I carry no visible weights. I don't want to feel like I'm competing with the world to be better. My inner child is sobbing in a dark corner of my mind, unable to ask for a hug because she only wants a hug from one particular person and that person has only appeared in dreams. He may not even exist but my heart aches for his embrace. I long for his arms to hold me one day. But I don't even know if he exists.
