the fish swim by as I stand here in the dark thinking about is my life-like this aquarium?
Do I keep going in circles with the things I need to let go.
Do I keep doing the same things even though I know the right thing to do is step away and do better.
Do I keep letting the same person get under my skin because I don’t want to say something or maybe I need to just ignore them completely because I don’t want to change my character because of their actions.
In this moment everything is quiet and everything is good and right with me and for that I am grateful.
