ARE YOU OK?

Can exist in harmony

Despite the hormones

My light doesn’t dim yours

We can co exist together

I discovered some new vulnerabilities

And they made me love you more

Some made me build walls

I never knew I had

Eventually the distance

Becomes too heavy for you to fight off

So then you drift into a lecture

You think it’s helpful

I think so too

So I let you continue

With no interludes

But my head is spinning

Far from calm

Existing in a world of misery

And you are not there

Just me & my fears

The doubt gets deeper

With every passing moment

I am a victim of thought spirals

“But wait, wasn’t marriage

suppose to heal me?”

Wasn’t I suppose to feel

less lonely?

You ask again, echoing softly,

begging almost….

Are you ok?
