Haze  emotional numbness and disconnection

 There’s a silence that settles

 when you’ve felt too much,

 for too long.

You’re not broken.

 You’re protecting the part of you

that still feels too deeply.

This is Haze

 where the world keeps spinning,

 and you keep nodding,

but something in you has gone quiet.

It’s not surrender.

 It’s survival.

But you don’t belong to the fog.

 You belong to the fire underneath.

 And it’s still there.

Bend  the strength and toll of adapting
You bent again.
To keep things smooth.
To keep things safe.

It looks like strength.
 But inside, something’s slipping.

Bend is the ache after.
The part of you that wonders
how much more can I give
without losing myself?

Pour  the quiet cost of constantly giving
You kept showing up.
Kept pouring, even when nothing poured back.
This isn’t burnout.
It’s something deeper.
A quiet unraveling.
Pour is a return to your why
before the noise, before the numb.
You don’t need fixing.
You need remembering.
