Truth is its those of us that are the strongest end up needing someone the most.
I am exhausted yes, this tiredness is beyond physiological tiredness.
Its psychological, its emotional.
God & Man
I am tired of being strong.
Suddenly I sit here, tight in the chest, feeling lost and unsure where to look for direction.
I have always played the infallible woman role who seems to be able to do anything and everything.
When others look at me they see me as such.
And now, its me who has become pale and worn out.
When youre always the strong one, youre very cautious about giving your problems to anyone else.
You see that as laying a burden on the people youre supposed to be supporting.
And the people who are usually so busy looking after others dont always go around asking for help.
What if someone sees you bleed?
What if someone see the tears you keep to yourself?
Now I have found myself exhausted from running from my need to be vulnerable.
I am independent economically, but I dont wish to remain psychologically strong anymore.
Yes, I desire to be caressed by someone.
Theres no wrong in craving for someone to hold you, to take care of you.
Its not something to be ashamed of.
Its the power of love.
And of course it’s possible for you to continue being strong for others.
But check that its coming out of a strength youre going to be able to sustain.
