Rising

already exhausted upon awakening
the day begins anew

while the brain is slow
the body is even slower

what weighs me down
isn’t easily lifted

for my body and soul
took a deep hit

just trying to stay afloat for now
living is on hold

when the dark veil has lifted
and the heart is healed

i’ll arise more determined
with hope in my eyes

        1. I am well and safe but certainly some struggles warrant navigation. This piece comes from having dealt with those struggles and observations of others as well. Sorry that you are dealing with PMDD, being familiar with the effects. ((hugs))
