I bite my tongue
just to check that I can still lie my way out of a
“Yes,
I’m fine. How are you?”
On the one hand, I’ve only got two hands
with which to lift this shit off of my shoulders
and damn it, this shit is heavy.
Life seems to be full of boulders,
obstacles, and U-turns.
I feel like I’ve learnt that way too soon.
No way of knowing
what will hit me next in an attempt
to break me
and –
Excuse me.
I just need to clear up this glass that I’ve smashed.
I’ll be right back.
I liked this a lot and very in tune with how I feel at the moment, not knowing what is going to hit you from moment to moment. I had a crystal ball, but I dropped it and it smashed while I was trying to see what would happen next

I am glad you like the piece. It is an unfortunate feeling but one which I believe we can all relate to.
If you ever fix that crystal ball or get a new one let me know 🙂

Oh I will. I just wish I had some way of telling when I will find another one…
