Emotional Vacation

Lately, I’ve been stuck in this strange emotional purgatory. It’s not sadness, not quite loneliness. It’s kind of emptiness, but more like a disconnect from everything, even myself.

What am i feeling?

It’s as if I’m not feeling anything at all. Or is this the feeling of not feeling? Could it be overwhelming?

Is it really emptiness? Maybe I lack the words to truly describe this feeling.

I can’t quite put my finger on this emotion.

Many stories are buzzing in my head to share here, but the spark to write them, to truly feel them, just isn’t there.

So, I am not writing them now.

Thus, I’m taking a break from my blank page, or what I call my sensual fantasy world, and revisiting and resharing some older pieces here that may have been shared before or maybe not.

Maybe just maybe they’ll jog something loose, help me rediscover the name, or untangle these emotions, making me feel alive.

Among these old writings, some are darker and more lustful, while others are raw and honest thoughts and opinions (outside of my sensual/erotic pieces), inspired or frustrated by the bitter harsh realities that have happened or are happening. I’ll gradually share them one by one until I rediscover the energy to create new narratives.

In the meantime, I’m here, immersing myself in your blogs, soaking in your perspectives, experiencing this unnamed feeling, taking a deep breath, and trying to untangle the knot of these emotions within me.

When/if I figure that out, I’ll share it here, raw and unfiltered. As always!

    I’ve been in purgatory so many times. It’s tiring in a way, unable to get past it no matter the desire to do so.

    Fingers crossed for you, xoxo!

    It’s always so frustrating when we get this disconnect, I hope you’re back soon with new stories but it will be interesting to read some of your old work 🙂

    Keep well

    That’s odd that I didn’t get a notification on this post. Maybe it was right before I started following you.

    I can relate. I’ve been in a similar malaise for literally a few years now and it sucks. For me, the cause wasn’t too hard to identify: too much drama and not enough good passion in my life. It’s hard to write sexy when all you feel is blarg. I feel like I’m close to a breakthrough but…

    Anyway, find something to restore your real world fire and the writing will flow again.

      Yes, this post was right before we connected here. I guess I’m feeling okay, not completely though, but I haven’t spent as much time thinking or writing these days.

      However, I’m staying active here, reading, and re-posting my old blogs, and being with whatever I’m feeling right now. I’m also trying to watch some movies/series to recollect my thoughts and passion.

      Hoping to get better soon and regain my zeal!

        That’s the best start possible. :) I can’t speak for you, but I’m introspective enough to know that on my end, it’s both a lack of passion (sexual and otherwise in my life) and just feeling stuck. your post resonated though because that’s where I’ve been for sooooooo long. The stories are there, often so is the general outline. When it comes to getting beyond that though, everything just feels blah and won’t form properly.

    Thanks for bringing this up. I’ll figure it out. If not sooner, I’ll get there eventually. It’s always refreshing to hear about others’ experiences and know that we’re not alone. We can pick ourselves up from wherever we are. I’m glad you shared your experience.

    Thank you🤗

    Beautiful.

    Wherever you are, even in places that feel like no place at all…

    although they sometimes took a long time to spin back into orbit, I found some of my most beautiful landscapes in these empty places.

    I learned to follow shooting stars, read the expressions on clouds, drink moonlight… and dream of someone who sees my smile in dark places.
