Nothing

Vanna


Notice of absence from Vanna
I come and go. Sometimes I will post everyday for a week and then I won’t post for months.

There is nothing in this life anymore— just this immense sadness, etched into me like a tattoo I never agreed to wear.

Happiness comes and goes in the span of a few seconds, a spark I can name but never keep.

But the worst is the in‑between, the gray place where everything is muted. At least when I was sad, I knew what to do with myself. At least when I was sad, I had reasons to stop the things I loved. At least when I was sad, it stayed.

When I’m happy, I feel it for a moment— brief, bright, real. But now there’s nothing. Even surrounded by sadness, I feel nothing. Even surrounded by joy, deep inside I feel nothing.

        A recognition as to the difference between the two not in the sensation but the duration of that sensation and in the return to normal. Well written

              Vanna, this hit me hard…that sense of emotional exhaustion where even sadness fades into something heavier and quieter. The way you describe the gray in-between place feels painfully real. It lingers long after reading. Powerful piece. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛
