unravel

I am just going to let it all unravel

Like a ball of yarn, until there is nothing left but a long string of memories and of lessons.

So many things, places, and people- I am just going to let it all unravel.

Sitting on a bench next to a homeless man sleeping, I bet he let it all unravel.

Life is hard and life is sweet. Sometimes it is too much for me, but most times it’s not enough.

Everywhere I go, every way I act, everything I see, and everyone around all just seems extra.

The world is too full for me.

Sometimes I feel like my surroundings are too much- at any moment everything will implode and turn to dust.

I can feel my energy leaking from my pores. I can feel it dripping from my forehead all the way down to the pavement beneath me.

As my body pours with lost aura, wasted time, I can feel myself being hallowed out like an old tree being eaten away by insects.

I just want to let it all unravel, and see where it goes from there.
