Empty

The leaves are fluttering wildly in the summer evening breeze. Shadows have almost completely taken over their form. The normally still and soft vegetation has taken on a chaotic appearance.

I can relate.... Unsuspecting wind and shadow are causing turbulence in my journey. My whole being is fatigued by the stresses and emotions of now. I have no words and nothing left to give. It's just me in this raw state and I don't want to do more explaining I just want to be embraced.

Some seem to think that talking is the cure. That the physical action of me saying what is troubling me will automatically restore me from my pained and burdened state. They still have expectations that I pour into them and their priorities and that I move on for the sake of efficiency.

I'm completely failing at being okay right now. There's nothing left. I can't even feign compliance to the normal societal standards of what it means to keep it together.
