I don’t want to stay but can’t find the courage to leave. My life is built around you. I’m not happy, but I’m not sad. I’m just numb. This way of life has become exhausting. I cannot try anymore. I have nothing more to give. I’m pouring from an empty cup. I am a shell of the person I used to be. This is no way to live the rest of my life. Please set me free. Losen your grip on me. Allow me to walk away, even though leaving scares me because I’m terrified to remain. This stirring inside me will not subside. I have to find this peace that I seek. Far, far away from you.
