i’m starting to feel the weight of the world on my shoulders
and i’d really like for it to stop
but it won’t.
i know it won’t.
and i know its not just me who’s affected by the world
but that doesn’t make everything happening in the world
seem any less crushing
having the news on repeat isn’t helping
its just the same headlines
over and over
and over again
we already know what happening
we already know that things are in chaos right now
i don’t need it on loop
it certainly isn’t helping
in due time of course
they “this too shall pass”
or whatever the saying is
but right now its not feeling like anything is gonna pass anytime soon
this could have happened at any time
in any decade
yet everything decided to go down
when we decided to enter adulthood
though, really
it wasn’t a choice
you don’t control when you’re born
and i guess we dont control everything that happens in the world, either
but yikes,
everything still feels so heavy
