I want to hug someone and cry my heart out without having to explain why, without hearing that everything will be okay or feeling the need to apologize for being emotional. I just want to be held long enough for all the things I’ve been carrying to finally come out. I’m tired of keeping everything together, pretending I’m fine, and finding the right words for feelings I barely understand myself. Sometimes I don’t need advice or answers. I just need somewhere safe to fall apart.
I think people underestimate how tired you can be from just having too much on your mind! Not even physically tired! Just tired of remembering things, handling things, thinking ahead, fixing stuff, making decisions, being needed, tryna stay afloat etc. That's just a lot for real.
