I rather be right now than here in the darkness that swallows me whole with no exit insight.

I sit here trying to think of a way out because it feels like I’m suffocating on all that is pushing up against me.

This solution is not an answer to my situation and so I’m back at square one and it feels like I’m running out of time and air around me.

As I slowly fall down and down like black hole that you can’t see the bottom and so when will I hit the spot that tells me this is solved and over with.

Nothing to help me pull my way back up, right now it feels like a losing battle for me and as I fall I start to think about the things that have come before this moment and time.

Was there a time that I could have stopped myself from falling into this danger that just eats me alive and ends up with me being nothing in the end.

Daily Prompt: Vision

Advertisements

My vision of who I want to be isn’t clear.

But my vision to see myself for who I am

is some what clear.

For I know my personality and my character

and yet I still question myself at the end of the day.

If my vision was clear and the path my life is to be on

I had known from the start.

Would I really be looking at the other things in life?

Or would I be so focus on what I must do, that I don’t slow down

and enjoy the things that are just breath-taking, or allow myself to take steps that are off course but worth stopping for.

My vision of how my life will be or could be is unclear

but my vision of being able to see so much beauty and experience

many things in life by seeing them so clear is so bright and expanding.

Maybe the vision of my life will become clear for me one day, but for now

I sit here and enjoy all the distractions.
