I am but a restless wanderer dazed and confused teetering on the seams of insanity. No level playing field with contest fair, no heads up notice rules constantly changing making stability seem such an awfully strange foothold to have to try to find until, quite often I feel I'm losing my mind in bits and pieces I'm scattered around until no longer do I feel as though I am one but rather, a total combination of things remaining undone in a place where closure does not exist I try so very hard to resist all of these things that lie deep within me So confusing is this reality. My fingertips bleed as I claw, trying to climb these pristine walls which could lead to higher ground where greener grass is sometimes found but strong enough; I haven't grown yet to break away with no regret. With all of my might I fight this fall that could push me over the edge, I'm hanging on; clinging tightly to the ledge... No, I have not lost this game. seek the flame within yourself |

I loved the open heartedness of this write. Could visualize the smooth walls towering up...but to see the imaged before taking the plunge, that's quite a grounding. There was hope here, and good wishes. TD |

Think of it as an egg that was scrambled and is now whole again, in one piece... I think you are headed there, but I know what it feels like to have days like that. Excellently expressed.. |
