Fall into Peace

I am not okay.
It takes guts to say that out loud and accept it.
I am not okay,

But I will be.

The power of speech is powerful,

Sometimes unshakeable.
Someone can mean the world to you,

But you don’t mean the world to them.
So when the world falls and crashes,

What do you do?

Your thoughts force you to look inwardly,

As if that’s the problem.
But it’s not.

Long nights, early mornings.
Sleep is limited,

The thoughts won’t stop.
Close your eyes, and the nightmare continues.

The night is silent,

Eyes wide awake,

Just like they’ve been the past two weeks.

Able to close my eyes shut,

But unable to fall into peace.
