A Letter To My Mom
Dear Mumma, I don’t want to disappoint you. I know you have high hopes for me—and not just any hopes, but dreams stitched with love and belief. But somewhere along the way, I’ve started to feel like I’ve already let you down. Not just you—myself, too. And that’s the hardest part. I don’t know how to keep doing things anymore. My passion—it feels like it’s flickered out. I feel stuck, like I’m trying to move in quicksand. There’s no energy left in me—not even for the things I once loved. Lately, I can’t tell if I even like anything at all. Everything feels dull, like the world lost its color. There’s nothing that excites me, nothing that makes me feel alive. I’m so sorry, mum. I know I’ve disappointed you. And that thought alone is enough to break me. Yours, always, Your child (I’m sorry)
