top looking down
and for the first time
I don’t want to go back.
I don’t want to deal with the problems I didn’t cause and the mess that isn’t being solved now or ever.
The attitude that thinks it is always right
but it’s way out of line most of the time.
The coldness that only begins to come in as the doors reopened
and the realization that nothing is the same and no one has the patients to stand by and just support.
The stress is too much and better days will come they say but at this point it all feels like lies to me.
