I’ve locked in box for days.
With no way out and no words to save me.
Day and night I fought to find something to say
to find something to connect to.
Yet, all I felt was nothing but the pain of the words that should have been there.
I couldn’t even search for them for I felt so weak and hopeless in a time that felt like it was all just going to disappear.
My happy moments were not around as everything felt so numb and the answer to my questions were far from found.
Nothing made sense and everyday and everything felt like a drag and the reason for me to keep pushing on felt like I was fighting myself for some peace.
Then in one moment it all went away and the light finally shined through the maze I had been walking through for days and my hope and faith were restored along with the strength to keep fighting.
