Confessions of the Optimist
Somedays everything goes wrong
Everything around you just burns
And no matter what you do it wont stop burning
People are rude to you for no reason
Friends are cruel while thinking they are jabbing at your harmlessly, but their carelessness leaves you bleeding out on the floor
Somedays you just wanna scream, there is no poetic ending where you find the beauty in the suffering
It's just suffering.
And you just have to sit and watch the flames destroy everything around you
You know that when the flames are gone things will regrow and everything will be fine
But that doesn't stop what is current moment happening to you
Because, right now, everything is an inferno
The heat evaporates your tears in the ducts they sit in and you can't leave the fire.
Stuck
Waiting for the flames to stop
Waiting for the anger that flows in your blood to calm
And it will, eventually the fire will die and your anger will calm
But right now it burns and burns and burns
