Have you ever...
By vaultgrl
Have you ever noticed...
When something happens, that puts our lives on hold, consumes our thoughts,
makes routines break the mold...the way the sun doesn't seem to shine?
How the clouds are always visible and only mine...the greens seem old....and
the blues are no longer cold...and warm isn't red...all the colors just
bring more dread...they blend together like the countless minutes, hours,
and days...Days that turn to night, when the battle to sleep is a losing
fight...but you keep at it, doing more and more, to avoid the thoughts
trying to pour....trying to pour from your mind...the thoughts that keep
lingering behind...waiting for the moment, the right time, to ambush and
control your mind. So you keep busy and avoid the thoughts, until eventually
you find...
It's not worth it...
One more day...One more night...One more hour...One million more fights...

it is amazing the shift in perspective that can occur given something that disrupts our typical demeanor... suddenly the whole world changes for us and we are consumed... excellent work!

yes.. no more fighting.. I'm dulled by all the confrontationalists out there.. it's too much to handle, and you try your damndest to avoid the same thing, only to find it lashing directly at the people closest to you.. so much effort.
