Empty and Alone

I feel like I have had a rainy cloud over my head for the past few days and I am not able to shake it off.
It all started when Mike called me.
He is hurting just like I am... if not more.
As we talked, I could hear how challenging it was for him.
The only other time I remember him crying was when Nana passed away.
He was telling me how hard it was to go back to Courter St.
When he started crying, I did too.

I've been working so much these past few weeks that the only emotion I have really felt was exhaustion.
Now that things are slowing down, I feel the pain and the emptiness.
Yesterday, I was supposed to go to a cookout with Darren's family and I didn't make it.
I was supposed to hang out with a colleague and that got cancelled.
All I wanted to do yesterday was lay in my bed.
I had no desire to do anything else.
I feel bad making these plans and then cancelling them the day pf.
When I tell people I am in a funk, I don't think they really understand.
I can't pinpoint the exact cause. All I can really say is things are not the same.
Nothing I do is the same.
One things relates to the next, which makes things challenging.

I was playing Super Mario Bros and it felt nostalgic.
It took me to the time I found out Nana passed away and that is what we did together to calm the feels.
I turn the fan on and can hear you telling me to use a smaller blanket.
I hear you joking on my Coach shoes calling them jeepers because they have that thick white gummy part.
I am prolly not helping myself since I am dealing with everything on my own.
I am good on the pitty party and with an amplified lack of trust, I don't want to let others in on that side.
Love you!
