The answer to all your problems is in the bottle's bottom. To bad the child safety top can't stop him. Nights are remembered in fragments amidst the head nodding. Bad memories suppressed at the cost of good moments forgotten. Lost of taste as he eats with an erased look on his face. Knows the date only by the amount of pills left to take. Needs some to fall asleep, some just to wake, and you know it takes a lot just to make it through the day. Each ailment healed is an ailment gained so problems are never solved, just rearranged. Just as you start feeling normal people start to tell, the side effect to getting well requires a soul to sell. Flying away is always nice, but it's when you land that dictates how you pay the price. Your distant from the pain that dwells and it's awaiting your return. The longer you duck and hide the more the demon yearns. Withdrawn from society, life, your friends, yourself.... In the cabinet of existence there is little left upon the shelf. Each glimmer of hope is close enough to reach, but the shell of false protection is just to hard to breach. "Your pain is yours, cherish it. It's the only thing no one can ever take from you." Big-E ..........................................-LIV
Very well put. very truthful. You can never run from pain, its always there, not even the bottles bottom can take it away. Its a hard lesson to learn....The best part is that you learned. keep up the good work.
ReplyDeleteAs true as it rings, your pain is yours and yours alone....It is not the only thing that can't be taken from you. No one can rob you of your spirit, your soul, your creativity, your passion...Experiences, abilities and knowledge can't be swiped away either. Reinforce the learning and mingle everything together...Look what we got now; a miracle.
