I need a vacation
from me
Not to be someone else
particularly
But just not
the not quite myself
I’ve been lately
I’m blah and band
without a hint of silly
I’m tired and uninspired
with reality
My go get ‘em
got lost
Nothing motivates me
long enough
to get it done completely
I need a long weekend
just enjoying my neatly
of being on top of things
A few days away simply
to rejuvenate and play
in my sweetly
I need to rest my mind
let it unwind
to used to be

You will maybe be able to do that in the coming weeks, I sure hope so. That is a terrible situation to be in. I predict you will bounce back and be the sweet loveable person you are.

Yep, take some time off and be with yourself in your own thoughts and even fantasize a little on the trip.
Can't hurt to take a magic carpet ride once in a while.

Wish you and your inner you, the best as always.

Thanks Eric, Looking forward to school getting out for the summer and having some time off.  But for the vacation I need I think I need to slip into something more comfortable....like a coma LOL!

I always seek out the sea,listen to the waves, smell the salt air, that clears the mind.
Now....Kansas? that  creates a small problem

I am still in the process of learning who I am...my favourite unwinding time is  reading a good book beside a river since I am too far from the ocean waves I miss so much....When the wind howls I feel that same sensation...HUGS always help too so here are some for you
