Feel It
I long for life to be simple again. Just sit here with me; let’s lay back and count the stars, watch the airplanes fly ahead. Feel the cool of a night’s breeze, the slide of my hand against yours, and know that somehow the world is going to be okay. Such simplicity has always been my anchor, my great stabilizer. In it’s absence there is chaos; a confusion of trivial words and ancient memories, unable to escape the boundaries of my mind.
It is in the exact moment when my world gets flipped upside down and I have nothing left to hold on to, that I truly find who I am. Surrounded by … nothing. Nothing at all that matters, but suddenly feeling the weight of everything and everyone that has value inside of me. Collapsing naked on an empty floor, gripping nothing but the knowledge of how much you are worth, and the empty feeling of knowing that it’s never enough.
