You said that yesterday too.

Tired

I was carrying this sadness today and I couldn't even point to why it showed up.

I did all the usual things, meetings, smiles, small talk. But inside it all felt like walking on a sprained ankle, every step reminded me that something wasn't right.

My body was here, but some part of me was just.. watching.

I kept telling myself, "Tomorrow will be better," but another voice whispered,

"You said that yesterday too."

And both voices felt like mine.

I'm tired.
