I Feel Overwhelmed By Life
Please Be Okay... I often feel overwhelmed by life. Well, not so much by life than by the situations that life throws at me. There are numerous situations that can make me feel overwhelmed; but one stands out above the rest - Not being able to protect the people I love.
I am in a situation like that right now, but can't allow myself to be overwhelmed by it. If I allow it to consume me, I will be of no use. No, I have to keep a calm and clear mind. The person I love most in this world is in trouble, and I am not in a position to do anything about it. This overwhelms me. It devours me. It destroys me. But I can't let it - I can't give up.
I am driven by a strong desire to rescue him in his time of need. To save him from all pain. To protect him and make sure that he is okay. But my hands are tied, and its driving me to the brink of madness. All I can do is hope, and will him to just please be okay.
