seeking a moment of rest and clarity before finding the strength to move forward.

I Want to Sink

Sometimes, life feels too heavy. I want to sink. I want to disappear into the depths of the sea, where the weight of the world can't reach me. I'm tired. Anxious. Lost. The path ahead feels blurry, like I'm walking through fog without a map.

Battles, challenges... I don't know if I can face them. Friends, family... I feel so alone even when people are around. Empty. Hollow. Sometimes, the only place that feels safe is the place I first encountered darkness. Cold. Quiet. Lonely. But there, at least, there is no pressure, no worry, no expectation.

It's not about giving up... it's about craving a pause. A moment where I can breathe without the world pressing in. Where I can exist without the noise, the stress, the endless chase for what comes next.

And maybe, in that sinking, in that darkness, I can find myself again. Maybe it's in the quiet, in the depths, that I'll remember what it feels like to be at peace... even if only for a while.

Because sometimes, to find a way back to the light, we have to let ourselves sink first.
