I’m just a mama trying to get through life. Writing helps me clear my head and deal with stress, anxiety, and depression. Someone told me I might be able to make some money from my poems, so I figured I’d give it a shot. It’d be nice to make a little cash doing something I love.
Some days, the cracks show just beneath the surface. Behind smiles and steady hands, a fading soul quietly slips away. This is a journey through silence, shadows, and the fragile space between pretending and breaking.
The poem explores deep, quiet despair and the wish to fade away without attention. It reflects feelings of isolation and hopelessness, where comfort feels distant and unseen, and the speaker just wants peace on their own terms.
