I thought I had it. The way you looked at me made me believe I was close, at least. I thought I had time. But I guess waking up at seven to clean up last nights mess just isn't going to cut it anymore. I thought I had nothing to worry about. It's funny how doubt has it's ways of creeping into every corner of your brain, every thought. I thought there were bigger problems. But nothing hurts worse than seeing your mother cry, and knowing you put those tears there. I thought I had you. But I guess I shouldn't think so much.

Thoughts.
