Here's what I wrote three years ago on this date. Back then, it was only the second anniversary of the day I stopped fighting. So today, it's the fifth.
The minutes take eternities to pass, but somehow the years rush by.I was right.Two years have passed in the blink of a teary eye.
I never thought it would happen. I fought for so long, I convinced myself that I was winning. I faked a smile for so long, I convinced myself that I was happy. I fell for so long, I convinced myself that I was flying.
I never thought it would happen. I never thought it could happen.
But it did.
Splat!
My world still reverberates from the force of that impact.
I don't want to say any more.
I've already said too much, yet I could never never never say enough.
Those two words would lead to those three words would lead to a billion more words, and still it would not be enough.
It was never enough.
>>I fell for so long, I convinced myself that I was flying.
Wow. . . yea. . . I realize your standards for yourself are unattainably high. . . but damn, you nail "it" in so many ways, for so many things so often. . . I just HAVE to keep coming back.
= ) You are a voice for the human condition. A voice that has not ever before been phrased in the way that you do here.
