Worn Out, Tired

Some thoughts.

Paranoid, wound up

I just want to move somewhere quiet away from society

Stressed, fed up

I just need the world to stop spinning to let me off

tired, used up

I just want to turn the light off and go to sleep

    Been there! Love the honesty in your poetry, Paul, the little streams of thought! Someone once said to me "When your world is spinning you'll be fine, the Universe is spinning by design" That phrase came back to me as I read and wanted to share. The words have been a comfort in times that felt like chaos. But truly, a cabin in the mountains sounds like heaven on earth! :)

    I always dream of cabin in the mountain with food and my favorite books to read 🥰Nice and cozy. Very relatable
