I AM EXHAUSTED

I am exhausted.

To the outside world, I have had a normal day, doing normal things, nothing to make me stand out or get noticed. On the inside, I have been running a marathon and am still running now. I have to keep running from my thoughts. They are always right behind me. I can feel their breath on my back and the feeling of them reaching out to me, almost grabbing hold, feeling the swipe as they extend out to grab hold of me, to pull me back and drag me down.

If I stop, I may be sucked down, I may get bogged down by the weight of them. If I slow down even a little the thoughts will be next to me, whispering the negativity into my ear, filling me with dread and fear. I have to keep running.

I can’t be still.

No.3 “To the outside world I have had a normal day.”
