What do I need when I have nothing else to give
I wake up feeling empty, drained, stressed
I feel like there is a hole in the centre of my chest
And no amount of air, deep breathing can fill it
The feeling spreads to my arms my stomach
It takes over my mind
It makes my body weak and my motivation nonexistent
How can I work when I have nothing else to give
My thoughts stray to a million things at a time
There is so much to do and I have no energy
I sit and stare at the piles of work my mind frozen
The ice spreads to my hands and my legs
It takes over my body
I feel tired and heavy and everything seems overwhelming
How can I love when I have nothing else to give
I wake up feeling sore and it hurts to even think
My mind continuously plays and replays many scenarios
Causing pain and desperation with no end in sight
The pain takes over my will and my emotions
It takes over my heart
My heart hurts and can’t focus on the tools to make myself better
How can I heal when I have nothing else to give
I feel lost spinning in circles to find my way
My spirit is heavy the weight is so hard to carry
Crushing me, mind, body and heart, draining me
The emptiness spread to my thoughts and my feelings
It takes over my spirit
I am lost trying to find a light I know should be there so I can change my focus
