I Don't Feel That Way

In light of many events in the past two months, I begin to wonder.
Am I devoid of emotion or are people getting more emotionally intense?

I Never Would

Is it mean that I love the acts of kindness from random strangers more than from people I know?

Hold Your Fucking Breath

When you're feeling anything less than hope, it's time.

When your "right now" is dragging itself to the past, it's also time.

When melancholy stealthily envelopes all the things you do, I think it's time.

And if I knew what I was running from, I'd be gone in a matter of weeks.
