100 Word Wednesday: Week 69

Image by Bikurgurl

Just need to get away and find a place that will bring me a little bit of peace from this stressful place.

Some fresh air to breathe and first time feel like I can try taking deep breaths and not choke on all the pollution that is in the air around here.

I want to walk long walks and know that my lungs will be getting the best air and my legs will be going towards something great, for I want to truly laugh again and smile too.

The words that fell from his mouth that day had changed everything and now all she could think about was what he said.

She was mad and sad and just over it at the same time but, she knew, in the long run, things were going to change.

A change that would, in the end, change the game from pleasant to downright nasty.

I know things will be rough but this was not just about one thing it was about many and she had the right to do what was best for her.

I raised my sleeves up and got to work

but the end results don’t feel like it was worth working so hard for.

I tried to not hold a grudge but, how can I walk through life trying to do more than what

I guess I should be doing.

Just to be treated like someone who you think is a fool and will fall for anything that comes out your mouth.

The time to stand up and not let anything get in my way is now for I’ve worked too hard to be treated like I’m slipping.
