I am

Stuck on what feels right

And I said I would not give up

But right now, I am here, yet the work is not done.

Is there something else holding me back?

So many questions but no answers, and you feel the lack of wanting help lately.

You feel tired as you realize something has been wrong for some time.

But you were still doing what you loved, so you didn’t question it.

But now, as you try to move forward in something new.

You realize you can’t find the drive to do it, and you’ve been shutting down.

And the conclusion is you are depressed, and the signs are changing, but the one thing you know is your lack of voice and creativity is always first to go.

But when you are tired and frustrated, sometimes you think rest is the answer, but it’s been a month now, and nothing has changed.

Other than going to where comfort lies and staying there as growth is on hold.

And all you know is something so wrong, and how do you make it right again?
