Like a Ton of Bricks

Determined to make right of what went wrong

Exhausting the very molecules in your brain

Tired of the same thoughts, same things all the time.

Now what?

It's dangerous to be left alone with yourself and your thoughts.

That is when you have to face your worst demons.

It is the time you have to sit and deal with your life choices,

Decisions and actions.

It can be the scariest, most unexpected moment in time.

You thought you were prepared, knew better,

Was ready for it all...

Yet it still hits you like a ton of bricks.

You try to play it off, cool, collected...good.

But you are dying inside and wait for all to leave just to cry.

You're tired of talking, sharing your feelings...

Tired of wondering why not one person tells you to shut up.

You are told you need to, that it helps...

So why do you still feel the same?
