Seeking Tranquility
Chaos closes in on all corners.
The uncertainty of it all pumps through my veins as I desperately try to block out the penetrating noise in the distance.
Thoughts racing through my head like a never ending race.
Where’s my genie in a tiny golden bottle when I need it?
Only in a fantasy novel would I be able to get out of this situation.
hush.
I force myself back into reality, trying to recollect my thoughts.
In that exact moment soothing chills roll down each vertebra along my crooked back.
A sense of comfort rushes in like water falling off a cliff.
There is a miniscule whisper in my head telling me everything's okay.
It feels like forever and a day as I contemplate the details.
Trying to find the right voice,
Trying to find my voice
That’s when the realizations dawn on me all at once.
