There’s a space between getting better
and I can’t take another day.
It’s a quiet brutal tug of war
A constant swing between holding on
and letting go.
One moment you’re clinging to hope,
forcing yourself to stay strong a little longer.
The next, you’re completely empty,
crushed under a weight you’re not sure
you can carry anymore.
You wake up ready to fight
but fall asleep completely defeated.
You exist between healing and breaking
forced to survive the very day that tears you apart
while demanding you stay alive.
The most terrifying part is
which version of you is going to win today.
