My Eraser of Happiness

I found myself slowing down while I watched my family walk
Slowly, I grasped the rails and ever so slowly bent over them
Somehow I erased the laughter and sounds of the people
All I heard was an eerie silence
A feeling of sadness I left there

Another day I walked and stopped again
I found myself watching my family once again
They walked in front and I stared at the people intently
Again, everything went dull
A feeling of sadness reappeared

I was confused
What was I doing?
Why was I feeling this?

I had questions but no answers
Maybe just maybe it was because I was down
But I smiled and laughed
I was happy...right?
I want to be
But right now I can't be...for too long
Because I'm my own eraser

Well I can usually feel uncomfortable when the area is not right and my mom can too but sometimes it's just me. I can put that feeling wherever I want and no one should.

Overthinking is the most horrible thing ever so please don't do it. I know it's easier said then done but at least you are trying and that's what matters.

I would like to thank you all for your wonderful support. It's kinda new for me and hard to believe people like what I'm doing sometimes. I'm truly thankful so thank you!

Take care,
Anera
