On Burn Out


 Burn out. You go go go and then you feel you have no place to run and hide. The world keeps moving. Keeps wanting. But you can't stop and rest. You have obligations. The smallest things are suddenly like massive hurricanes of all consuming proportions. You snap . Its wrong. But you find yourself getting sucked into the vortex. Talking kinda helps. But despair and exhaustion want to play with you. And they want to take you into overtime. Plans fall through. People dissapoint you and you dissapoint them. You are walking on a tightrope but you can't see what is at the other end. You start to lose your hope . You forget the promises. You listen to the wrong voices. In fact, you find yourself talking with yourself. Then you feel a gentle touch on the shoulder . You hear " Though you are faithless, I remain faithful. You hold on.Trust.
