Behind the Flash

As you walk down the road of sorrow

Your heart pounds like a drum

Your thoughts cloud into a thick fog

And your eyes shootout tears like a cannon

Creating chaos and despair


In the ruins you find yourself lost

Trying to hide, but where?

Running around in circles

Memories flashing like lightning

Wishing time would freeze

So you could think

For just one second


But the world, it never stops

Just keeps moving, with or without you

So chin up

And smile for the camera

I wrote this piece about having to push through hardship even when it feels impossible.
