Heart Fatigue

Heart fatigue.

Is that a thing?

Exhausted from feeling all the feelings.

Wishing for more support.

More love.

More understanding.

Less judgment.

Less abandonment.

Less projection.

Less judgment.

(Yes, I said it again.)

I was there for you, and you, and you.

But you need only light and happy now that it’s my time of need.

I’m too dark.

Too interested in processing pain.

And personal growth.

It makes you uncomfortable.

And you’re not one for discomfort.

Neither am I.

But I am committed to myself.

To getting better.

And becoming a better human.

And the only way out is through.

And alone, apparently.

It’s okay.

I can do alone.

I’m good at alone.

I like alone.

And the peace of my alone is so much better than the loneliness of our togetherness.
