Do you remember that morning you woke up and realized, everything has changed? This gradual process has finally taken its toll. I came from that and got to this. I didn’t see it this way; although, I’m not sure I truly remember the futuristic picture I had in my head. Clearly, it wasn’t etched in stone; plans are always bound to change. I’m not sure it was worth all of the pain I feel in my chest. All of the memories that have had a negative effect, they stand out to me as my surroundings reflect, my life choices. Being alone, bearing the pessimism that engulfs me like blazing flames as I pass the blame. The only way to escape the pain is optimism to douse these flames against these false claims. I may question it and hiding behind these smiles, I’m living it; it’ll destroy me just the same. You can’t pass the torch to those running against you. As I awaited the whistle to begin my journey, now almost to the finish line I realize my main mistake; I’m a one-man team. Looking around for someone to help has slowed my steps, not anymore; I’m taking another deep breath. This isn’t the beginning or the end; this life: impermanent suspense.
