I’ve been through tumultuous times before
But this year has been affecting everyone
Horrific memories flood my brain
Even if those years were objectively “better” compared to now
No justice has been done
My smile has greatly diminished whether I use it to hide or not
My passions have been downplayed
One interest has only been there, so I can finish something
Have I become a drone or rather would it be better as such if I was?
I do my best to mention serious topics as well as supporting multiple righteous causes
Do people even care?
I want to have joy again, but it’s on life support.
I hear you. The plug was pulled on my joy. I’m digging the hole now.

Thanks for relating, Shelby. I do want that joy to come back, but I know it’s going to be rough. All I can do is wish for your joy to come back. I know those are just words, but I really hope you can regain it.
