everyday is the same.
i am in unbearable pain everyday.
the depression that is swarming my life is beating my ass and it is pathetic
he keeps me alive.
how could i put that on another human??
but everyday is the same.
at first it was okay,
i could handle it.
i liked the routine.
but then as i sat at that desk.
day after day.
doing these redundant, tedious, tasks.
i started to let myself think a little more,
and work a little less.
and before i knew it,
every morning,
tears would fall down onto the desk.
and then without even realizing,
i started to look for objects
just something little,
but sharp.
but he is too good.
he deserves someone good too.
and i need to be that someone.
so i need to be good.
but every fucking day is the same.
and i am not as strong as i used to be.
i am not as strong as i can be.
i don't know what to do anymore.
so i sit at that desk,
and i think about her,
and how much therapy has helped her.
everything she's told me.
and i think,
i cant do this alone anymore.
and i can't put this on him anymore.
i need help.
