It's always darkest before dawn
I try to do whatever I can to quiet my thoughts, but often, nothing works. The movie, music..anything I can find to drown out the deafening noise of my mind. I tell myself that everything will work out the way it’s supposed to, but my heart won’t rest and my thoughts never quit. I replay where I’ve been and what’s happened, the turns and twists of our relationship, and still, I lie there and stare at the ceiling.. Consumed by the relentless overthinking that is my way. I can’t remember a time when I could turn off my mind, and I’ve come to accept that’s just who i am.. But when my heart battles my mind at night, it can become almost overwhelming. My head tells me to let it go, make peace with the broken road I’ve traveled, but my heart won’t let me. It tells me to keep fighting, to hold on, that loving someone means struggling and making it through the hard times together. I can’t help but cry in these times when everything inside me is struggling with what I should do...
