Confused. Overwhelmed. Stressed. Hurt. Numb. Exhaustion.
Feelings you didn’t expect you’d ever feel.
The daily aspect of putting on a fake smile; scared to show others how you are truly feeling.
Getting endless work thrown at you, expected to finish it on time and correctly.
Once you believe your day is done. It isn’t.
You get home and all you want to do is sleep. You can’t.
You spread out the homework that was assigned to you. Can I do it later? There’s no time later. Do I have to? Your grade will drop if you don’t. Can I just sleep? No, the day is almost over.
Time sped up in a flash. Time to go to a late night practice!
As you’re getting ready, stress comes in. The thoughts of: When are you going to finish homework?
You arrive to practice knowing that you’re losing passion and motivation on playing the sport you once loved.
Pushing through the exhaustion and battling for a starting position.
Thoughts in the back of your mind. When is this over? Have they texted back?
Confused on why that one person you thought liked you back isn’t responding.
It doesn’t take much realization after that. They don’t. They played you.
Being an overthinker just prepares you for when the impact is gonna hit and how much it’s gonna hurt.
You get home, tired. You can’t sleep. Not yet. But isn’t it so late? Doesn’t matter.
You have to eat, shower, and stay up almost past midnight finishing up homework.
Going to bed knowing you have to do it all again tomorrow.
